The Wars of the Roses Queens & Consorts of England 4/8

The Queens of England who were tangled in the brambles of the Wars of the Roses fought tooth and nail for their rights and the rights of their families. The Queens consort of the Wars of the Roses were:
Anne of Bohemia
Isabella of Valois
Joan of Navarre
Catherine of Valois
Margaret of Anjou
Elizabeth Woodville
Anne Neville

The lives of the many Kings and handful of Queens Regnant who have held dominion over the kingdom of England, and later the United Kingdom take center stage in history. But the lives of their spouses and mothers are often relegated to the wings. In this series we will learn the stories of the many Queens Consort and the handful of male consorts who have been at the monarchs’ sides. Through love, hate, adultery and sometimes murder these women and men have played vital roles in the history of England.

I make mini documentaries about women's history and royal history:

War of the Roses are red,
My smothered nephews are blue,
I'd wait 500 years under a car-park,
Just for you,

[jencookie]

imagine 7 year olds:
"Yeah, so Isabella, you're marrying a guy today, "
"What's marriage again?"
"Oh, just stick around till he dies and you'll find out."

Fun Fact: Richard II and Anne of Bohemia did consummate their marriage. In a letter written to her brother, Anne expressed her grief over having a miscarriage. This was in about 1384.

I think I speak for all of us when I say that I need a detailed video on The War of the Roses. How the seeds of hatred began, who started the physical fight and so much more. I think it's so interesting

[nevercatchwind]

Elizabeth Woodville is one of my favourite Queen consort of this time. The fate of her sons is so sad

[lhayciasamuels]

My respect for Richard for not grooming the 7-year-old Isabella

Me: *has a project due in 1 hour*
Lindsay: *uploads*
Me: I guess that project can wait

[jencookie]

"anne was popular with the people, despite never having given birth to an heir"

*hmm, anne boleyn, are you taking notes here?*

[adwinjoseph]

The names are finally starting to get a bit creative, although there are many Annes and Elizabeths

[josabby]

Sometimes I wonder if the Princes in the Tower just said “screw this” and escaped to live out their lives as commoners.

You teach me more history in 20 minutes than documentaries that are one or two hours long.

Can't wait for the Tudors - 6/7 Queen consorts had the bad luck to be married to Henry VIII

[jonesvideo]

Imagine being a teenager and your father just comes up to you and says "Elizabeth your getting married pack your things" lol
EDIT: Shout-out to Tyrant-Den, I meant to type "You're". Not "Your" thanks for pointing it out 😉

[j.elizabeth]

This has “my teacher has a hangover and can’t deal with us so here we are” vibes all over it.

[annkelly]

Definitely need a video on Margaret Beaufort & what a strategic genius she was.

[stacyrussell]

Take a drink every time someone named Edward or Henry is mentioned, you'll be drunk halfway through the video... lol

0:37 Can we admire that me and Victoria were the presentation of love? Thank you Lindsay! ;)

imagine how the world would be different if females were dominant instead:
The Wars of the Roses Kings & Consorts of England

[josabby]

The Beauforts were considered to be part of the House of Lancaster, but were actually more closely related to the Yorks by the time of the War of the Roses because Joan Beaufort was the grand mother of Edward IV, Richard III and their siblings.
