Historical Women Spill the Tea - 3

Dana Arpquest

Updated: Jun 3, 2024

Welcome to our hilarious and historically dubious series, where we've exhumed some fierce ladies from the Wars of the Roses era for an exclusive text interview. LOLs through history? Absolutely. These medieval powerhouses have their gauntlets typing furiously as they dish out complaints about life, love, and the utter nuisance of hubbies with more ambition than sense.


Secrets of a Commoner Queen

Moderator: How did you manage the scepticism from nobility?

Elizabeth 👸: With grace and a bit of cunning. Being underestimated can be your greatest asset. I learned to listen more than I spoke, gathering whispers like jewels. And, when the time was right, I dazzled them all, proving that a crown fits well on a determined head, noble-born or not. #CrownAndCourage


The Witchcraft Accusations: A Royal Snub

Moderator: How did the witchcraft accusations affect you?

Elizabeth 👸: Oh, they were both a curse and a bizarre form of flattery. To think that one’s cunning and success could only be explained through sorcery! I wore the accusations like an invisible cloak, letting them underestimate me, all while weaving my actual magic - political savvy and resilience. #WitchyWisdom


Love in a Time of Thrones

Moderator: Can you share more about your relationship with Edward IV?

Elizabeth 👸: Ah, Edward. Our love was the real enchantment, amidst the storms of power and plots. It’s not easy loving a king - every whisper in the dark could be a dagger. But we found moments of peace, of real connection beyond crowns and courts. Those moments, rare and precious, were our true kingdom. #RoyalRomance




Remember, readers, this is all in good jest. These women certainly aren't laughing from their portraits—but imagine if they could text! Stay tuned as our 'interviews' might just include more timely complaints from timeless women through the scrolls of history. 😂 #MedievalTexts #TimeTravelTalks
