The Tragic And Incredible Life Of The Last Stuart Monarch | Queen Anne of Great Britain - PART 1

Queen Anne has been mostly pushed to one side in history, seen as a weak woman overwhelmed by tragedy and manipulated by her favourites. But the truth is Queen Anne was a stubborn, strong woman who bore the loss of her many children and husband with dignity, and sought to find the balance between her own opinion, and the right thing to do. This video looks at the early part of her life, from becoming Princess of Denmark, to her involvement in the beginning of the Glorious Revolution...

I must admit, though she is far from my favourite English monarch, I do feel for her. Losing 18 children! I can’t even begin to imagine the pain…

Superb as always, Queen Ann suffered a lot of heartache and pain in her life, thank you for sharing queen Ann's life before she became queen.

[patricialong]

Omg, she lost far too many children, poor thing! She lived thru pure hell and have a rough life into the bargain! Poor unfortunate lady! :(((

[janicestewart]

That beautiful lady went thru pure hell. I cried when I learned of her life and all she had to endure and still run a country. My heart goes out to her, and I will keep her in my heart now, as I do Queen Elizabeth the 1st.
These ladies/Queens were so strong when women back then wasn't suppose to be.

I just discovered your channel. I love and appreciate historical information. I am related to Anne Beaufort, Queen of Scots. I am continually seeking more information. Thank you for sharing. I immediately subscribed.

I love Mary of Modena who was the second wife of James the Second of England. I believe she was a good step mother to Queen Anne and I do believe Mary of Modena was a good Queen.

15:40 that was so fun lol😭 No, I don’t think she was a lesbian, thought maybe she could have been bisexual, who knows? Her love for George was beautiful and genuine, and she clearly like him between the sheets, but her obsession for Sarah may well, as you say, be a crush, or maybe something else…?

While Anne isn’t my favourite monarch due to her bringing in the Act of Union, this was a fantastic video. Your hard work is well appreciated by this Aussie.
BTW could you also do a video on Mary II as she (& her husband too for that matter) is largely forgotten. Wouldn’t mind learning more about her myself.

[leeannproctor]

I've heard a lot about her but not her sister mary. Queen Mary ii needs to be placed in this series.

[debraturner]

One source suggested Queen Anne had lupus. James’ wives also lost several children so you wonder what were the causes.

Hi, awesome live history video I enjoyed it. How are you? I'm doing well. Your history videos are always enjoyable. Have a great day see you next video greetings from Canada 😊

[lfgifu]

Now, for the question, seeing her here reminded me of it: what do you think of Henrietta Maria?

[CreedsofYore]

Since they share the same father, wouldnt he be Anne & Marys half brother, not step brother?

[cyankirkpatrick]

Isn't this the reason that we have the lullaby rock a bye baby in tree top and so on about the sudden birth of a baby boy in the royal household

Ah well, turn against your Father and you cannot expect to be gloriously happy. Horrible woman, she destroyed Scotland and left England with the Hanovers.
