Agnes Sorel (2025)
Hey! If you've been around for a while, you might know that in 2021 we attempted to cover Agnes Sorel and the gods just said "not now". Or maybe Agnes herself was reaching out from the beyond and screwing it all up. Either way, we took that episode down.
So, now we are revisiting this busty babe, hoping she's happier with this one. So, allow us to re-introduce Agnes Sorel, the first official mistress of the French Court. Her beauty was known far and wide and so was her scandal. From diamonds to titties and Kendrick/ Drake style feuds- this story has it all!
