We've spoken about Marguerite d'Angoulême on the show before, but how much influence did she have on Anne Boleyn during her time in France? 🇫🇷

Join @estelleprnq and me in December as she gives a LIVE talk on Anne Boleyn's time in France. This will also be recorded.

On this day 22nd November 1428 was born Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick. Son of the Earl of Salisbury, he inherited his title from his wife Anne Beauchamp who was Countess of Warwick in her own right. Little is known of his childhood. His role in English history was impressive.
