  • Royal Mistresses who became Queens
    Through most of history, Kings selected wives for their royal blood and political significance. Women they actually liked and were attracted to were relegated to being mere mistresses. These women were usually local aristocrats or even commoners who would not be considered contenders to be consort. The majority of monarchs had mistresses and their wives usually looked the other way, safe in the knowledge that their place as Queen could never be usurped. But a number of royal courtesan did come to wield great power. And on a few, incredibly rare occasions the stars to aligned to put the King’s lover on the throne. Let’s meet 8 royal mistresses who successfully became Queens.

  • Queens of the Pacific Islands - History’s Real Moana
    Disney Princess Moana may voyage across a fantasy version of the Pacific ocean, and represent an amalgamation of several islands’ cultures. But she is based on many real-life women who have led their people with courage, strength and compassion. From a 13th century Queen of Samoa who protected her people and was revered as a Goddess, to the 27 year old woman who was crowned Queen of the Māori in September 2024. Let’s meet X inspiring real-life Queens from the Pacific Islands. Nafanua, Queen of Samoa (1200s) Purea, Queen of Tahiti (1722.-1775) Vaekehu, Queen of Nuku Hiva (1823–1901) Lili’uokalani, Queen of Hawai’i (1838-1917) Makea Takau Ariki, Queen of the Cook Islands (1839–1911) Sālote Tupou III, Queen of Tonga (1900-1965) Ngā Wai Hono i te Pō, Queen of the Māori (1997) Sources: “Women of Power” documentary from TheCoconetTV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hibQdMfuPYc Moana 2 Wikipedia Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!

  • Roman Emperors in the time of Gladiator II
    Ridley Scott’s epic historical sequel, Gladiator II promises to be a dramatic and spectacular, if not particularly historically accurate roller-coaster ride through the Roman Empire. And while there are already some excellent videos out there discussing the authenticity of the battle scenes, dramatic deaths and exactly which era saw the flooding of the Colosseum, I want to take a look at something different – the cast of characters and their real historic counterparts. Today let’s explore the family trees which connect the key players, sort out who was real and who was fictional, meet a few fascinating women who did more than wait around to be rescued, and discover everyone’s true fates, which are even more dramatic than Hollywood could come up with. Caution, there will be some spoilers, but I won’t give away the ending of the new film, only what really happened in history.

  • Catherine the Great & Her Many Lovers
    The deliciously witty drama series ‘The Great’ tells the occasionally true story of Catherine II, Empress of Russia. It’s a wonderful example of why historic dramas should be taken as entertainment, not a history lesson. While playing fast and loose with history it actually sanitizes a lot of the scandal in her life by transforming Peter into a romantic antihero and making Catherine fall in love with him. In reality Catherine didn’t keep Peter around for a ‘will they, won’t they’ Hollywood romance. Her lover promptly strangled him in prison. Catherine the Great knew how to use her charm and sexuality, the only tools available to a woman of her time, both for her own advancement and her own pleasure. And while I love the great, it so far only captures a fraction of her true greatness. So let’s take a peek inside the imperial boudoir and get to know the Empress, her twisted relationship with Peter and her many lovers a little more intimately. And we’ll address that horrid rumor about the horse. Sergei Saltykov Stanislaw Poniatowski Grigory Orlov Alexander Vasilchikov Grigory Potemkin Pyotr Zavadovsky Semyon Zorich Ivan Rimsky-Korsakov Alexander Lanskoy Alexander Yermolov Alexander Dmitriev-Mamonov Platon Zubov Plus Peter’s Mistress, Elizaveta Vorontsova Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!
