The House of Dudley with Dr Joanne Paul

- Three generations of Dudley’s served three generations of Tudor monarchs, their fortunes, and legacies, were intertwined and often interdependent.
The rise from unknown to right-hand man to the King, left Edmund Dudley in a precarious position following the death of his master, Henry VII, and was beheaded under his son, the next Tudor king, Henry VIII. The concern Henry VIII had by being associated with Edmund Dudley was not mirrored in his concern for spending the spoils of the activities for which Edmund had gained that unpopularity, however.
The family position and royal favour was regained under Edmund’s son, John Dudley, through loyal service on, and off, the battlefield. Service that was to cost John dearly, with the loss of his eldest son, Henry. John’s long friendship with Edward Seymour, Duke of Somerset put John in ever greater positions at court and even close to the boy-king, Edward VI. When Edward VI devised his ‘Device for the Succession’, John was by his side. Whether to implement it to Edward’s wishes or manipulate the plan to his own ends, remains a contentious debate. John was also to lose his head, as was his son Guildford when they fell on the wrong side of history with their active role in supporting Jane Grey’s (Jane Grey was married to Guildford Dudley) claim to the throne of England against that of Mary Tudor.
Mary’s premature death brought the final Tudor monarch to the throne, her half-sister, Elizabeth I. The remaining Dudley brothers had been somewhat restored to favour under the patronage of the late Queen’s husband, Philip of Spain. However, the friendship of Robert Dudley and Elizabeth was already established when she succeeded her sister and Robert’s star rose so high that he was even in a position to ask for the Queen’s hand in marriage. The marriage was never to be and it is with Elizabeth and Robert that both the Tudor and Dudley lines, respectively, died out.
For an eye-opening and fascinating new take on the Dudleys and the Tudors, watch my interview with Dr Joanne Paul. The stories she uncovered for this book shine new light on a topic that was thought to have been exhausted, but not so!

It's looking fabulous and I luv watching you organize your yarn.
Congratulations to Dr Paul on the success of her book on the Dudleys! I have listened to about half of it now on Audible and I find it engrossing -- so engrossing that I searched for "Edmund Dudley" on youtube and stumbled on this terrific interview, and now I am intrigued by the other videos on this channel. And while the reader in the audiobook is clearly British, I am delighted to see that Dr Paul is a fellow Yank.
Wonderful! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I hope you'll have a look around at the other historian interviews here too, we have around 30 absolutely fascinating and informative interviews with some great historians :-) ruclips.net/p/PLupSRT2NxLH4Feik0WgVSP8g_4tweF0x-&si=TMbbuDnV1PLOcS5_
I really appreciated this interview - have heard Dr. Paul on several podcasts, and her way of sharing details about the Dudleys just makes me want to learn more. Time to get the 'House of Dudley.' On a side note @donaldgrove2249 , I do believe Dr. Paul is originally from Canada - in interviews she has said 'I am Canadian' 🇨🇦
Yes, she is 😀🇨🇦
I just ordered this book! Robert Dudley is one of my ancestors (by marriage), so this will be a marvelous read! YAY!
Such a fascinating interview, I've added The House of Dudley to my reading list now
Thank you. Dudley descendant here. Anne Dudley, daughter of Thomas and Dorothy (Yorke) Dudley born 1612 in England, immigrated to New England. Anne Dudley was the wife of Simon Bradstreet and was the first published woman poet in America.

the book is quite good...
the ancestery chart, does need a lot of improving...,
it should contain dates & ancestors of the dudleys... etc
it could be so much better...
the ancestry charts….the bain of an author’s life.
that background with the pink light and dresser is TERRIBLY DISTRACTING
/ very non-historical
What an odd comment. There is no pink light, for start and, why do you think my background has to be historical?
Also, the use of capitals is very rude. Your opinions do not warrant being shouted.
