In 1486 Elizabeth of York became the FIRST TUDOR QUEEN of England as the wife of Henry VII. It was a match made in dynastic heaven. It brought together the two warring branches of the Plantagenet family (the Yorks and the Lancasters) and effectively ended the Wars of the Roses. It also turned out to be a remarkable good marriage, with no rumours of affairs on either side (a true rarity for a medieval King) and the evolution of genuine love between the pair. In this documentary from History Calling I take you through the Queenship of Elizabeth of York, starting with the rumours that she was a pregnant royal bride. I’ll also look at her coronation, the children she had and her relationship with them (including Prince Arthur Tudor and the future Henry VIII), her bond with her husband and how she dealt with the pretenders to his throne, such as Perkin Warbeck who claimed to be her brother, Richard of Shrewsbury, Duke of York. I’ll consider the stories that she had a difficult relationship with her mother-in-law, Lady Margaret Beaufort and look at how she dealt with her daughter-in-law, the Spanish Princess Catherine of Aragon. Finally, I’ll tell you how she responded to the death of Prince Arthur and how his demise ultimately led to her own, less than a year later on 11 February 1503, her 37th birthday. Elizabeth was the daughter, sister, niece, wife, mother and grandmother of Kings, but in this video, she will take centre stage.
