Manage episode 446617110 series 2647693
Today, we revisit my conversation with Dr. James Taffe on the endlessly intriguing Jane Boleyn, Lady Rochford. After the execution of her husband, George Boleyn, and sister-in-law Anne in 1536, Jane skillfully navigated the dangerous waters of Tudor politics, securing a place in the households of each successive queen. But her involvement with Queen Katheryn Howard ultimately sealed her fate, leading to their executions in 1542. Jane’s life serves as a cautionary tale of the dangerous dance between power, loyalty, and ambition in the Tudor court.
