Bishop Gardiner definitely going to be a This F Guy
Can’t believe we’re at the end of all Henry’s wives! Do you think you’ll do Ivan the Terrible’s wives ?
I actually have an old Katy's corner series on all his wives. Most of them there's not that much on for full episodes but Ivan made Henry look like a saint tbh
Sigh… now I have to wait till part 2. And possibly 3?!
Yeah it'll be 3! Her before, during and after queenship!
I got so excited and already listened and now I’m sad I have to wait for the next episode😭

Can't wait to listen to this one! I recently watched Firebrand and am currently reading a historical fiction of Catherine/Katharine/Kit/Kat/KitKat (ok that last one might have been a stretch), so I am firmly in Parr mode right now. Thank you!
What did you think of Firebrand?? So many thoughts! 😅
Thank you! x

So excited for this listen!!
