My Tudor Era Tapestry 1486-1487

from Long Live The Queen · host Christena

In January 1486, Eliza, daughter of Edward IV, marries Henry VII, uniting York and Lancaster. Pregnant before the wedding, she bears the hope of a Tudor heir, her gold gown hiding doubts about Henry’s motives and her brothers’ fates. In September, she births Arthur in Winchester, a symbol of Tudor legitimacy. Margaret Beaufort orchestrates his grand christening, binding nobles to the dynasty. Elizabeth Woodville, in seclusion, takes pride in Arthur but fears Yorkist unrest. By 1487, a rebellion led by Lambert Simnel, posing as Edward, Earl of Warwick, threatens peace. Elizabeth sends warnings, while Maggie, a young Yorkist princess, grieves her brother Edward’s imprisonment and attends Eliza’s coronation, a bittersweet display of Tudor control.https://www.patreon.com/c/LongLivetheQueenPodcast
