Episode 252: Hoes of History: Queen Victoria

This week's episode is inspired by a penile piercing called a "Prince Albert." Prince Albert was husband to one of history's most iconic monarchs - Queen Victoria. She took the throne at 18 years old and had the second longest monarch reign in the United Kingdom that spanned 63 years.  She was a sheltered princess who was forced to transform into a formidable queen. Her reign is known as the "Victorian Era." There were many technical advancements, industrializations, and societal changes during her time, including a widely expanding empire. She was given many nicknames by the public throughout her life, but was last known as the "Grandmother of Europe."  She had nine children, eight assassination attempts on her life, and set popular trends that we still follow to this day.    Get your Homance apparel: etsy.com/shop/nicolebonneville Follow us on IG: @homance_chronicles Connect with us: linktr.ee/homance Send us a Hoe of History request: [email protected]
