Summary

Mary Queen of Scots’ reign began when she was only days old, but what you’d assume to be a life of luxury unfolded into a wild drama as she later found herself (briefly) Queen of France and then being groomed to take the disputed English throne, creating a compelling central conflict between Scotland and England. Pour a Mary Queen of Scots cocktail or any scotch drink as we dive into the crazy life of one of the tallest and most beautiful Queens in history. While some of the drama was ignited when Mary of Guise (her mom) roasted King Henry 8th in her rejection of his marriage proposal and ghosted his betrothal proposal to her daughter, there’s so much more to Mary Queen of Scots life - baby monarchs & failed betrothals complex murder plots & narrow escapes a marriage to an accused murderer political infighting & treason Must-listen moments: [00:16:00] This B (King Henry VIII) is killing people left and right. She burned him for that. So she knows he's f-ing psycho, and she's like, am I really gonna...? I didn't wanna marry him…Would I want my daughter to marry him or his children? [00:33:00] A recurring theme in Mary's life is that she makes terrible decisions… but all her advisors were French. [00:35:00] There were quotes from the people in Paris that said this is the most beautiful queen in Europe. Yeah. Ever. And then obviously Elizabeth the First catches wind of that and is like, b***..! Want more Mary Queen of Scots?
