Thanks for this video. To all those people, who think women then were shy retiring violets, here's the proof they weren't.

Thank you, that's much appreciated 😊

Why is this not a movie? Oh, to live such a life!

[@HistoryRoadshow]

Maybe Netflix might pick it up someday! Thanks 😊

Thanks for this fascinating story of this intriguing lady I didn't know about. Your graphics are truly mesmerising and narration absolutely engaging. Beautiful work, Jon 💖

Many thanks Marie, yes she was an intimidating woman, one who usually got what she wanted. 😊

Thanks a lot Jon 🙌
Wasn't familiar with this lady but your promo intrigued me so much that I had to look her up. Fascinating indeed 🤔
As expected, you did Mary justice (no pun intended) placing the spotlight on her and telling her colourful story as only you can 👍
Cheers for this 🍻

She was a gold digger and she reinvented herself, cool. I think she is very pretty and I love her clothing. She must have been very attractive to attract royalty and nobleman.
