Summary

This week we are covering one of our most requested subjects, Queen Victoria! We start with Victoria's childhood that she describes as, "rather melancholy" thanks to her scary mommy, and follow her journey to becoming Queen at just 18 years old. From navigating royal drama to falling head over heels for Prince Albert (who was also her cousin), we gab all about the juicy stories of her early reign. Victoria then became the symbolic matriarch of a vast empire, her reign shaped an era that would bear her name—The Victorian Age. We'll explore her personal triumphs, the complexities of her influence across Europe, and how she navigated a male-dominated world. You may call her aunt Vicky! (Get the Parent Trap reference?)
