By:
A story so epic we are doing two parts. Today we cover the medieval Queen Eleanor, her turbulent first marriage to Louis VII and their relationship, before doing a deep dive into Eleanor's divorce and subsequent marriage to Henry II.
The conversation delves into Eleanor's influence, her impact on culture, and the tensions within her family. It explores her active role, love affairs, and cultural influence, as well as the brewing conflict and her disappearance. Eleanor's legacy is portrayed through her significant impact on art, culture, and the political landscape of her time.
We also covered her Mother in law, Empress Matilda in Episode 11.
