Oooh! Getting very excited for the Gloucester History Festival this weekend! 😃😃😃

Today Sharon Bennett Connolly and I turn our attention to the often-overlooked daughters of Eleanor of Aquitaine and Henry II of England. While their sons have long dominated the spotlight, it’s high time we gave their remarkable daughters the recognition they deserve! 🍎-

#OTD in 1307. Death of Joan of Acre, daughter of Edward I and Eleanor of Castile. While she dutifully married the first husband chosen for her, she made her own choice for her second husband, incurring her father's wrath #medievalwomen #womeninhistory historytheinterestingbits.com/2015/04/30/reb…

This weekend I am at Gloucester History Festival Spring Weekend talking about the Women of the Anarchy on Saturday at 8pm. And on a panel discussing 'Eleanor of Provence in Gloucester' on Sunday at noon. Do come along. You can watch the online livestream. For tickets: gloucesterhistoryfestival.co.uk/spring-weekend…

Lovely to be back at Gloucester History Festival Spring Weekend yesterday, in conversation with Gareth Russell & Lucy Hughes-Hallett about the life & loves of James I - fab audience in beautiful Blackfriars. I’m back on Sunday with Sharon Bennett Connolly Dr Dean Irwin & Andrew Armstrong for Eleanor of Provence.

Couldn't not mention the fact we were sat under a roof financed by Henry III - what a wonderful setting to discuss Henry's wife Eleanor of Provence

Before my talk on Saturday night I chatted with the wonderful Philippa Lacey Brewell about the Women of the Anarchy. Or maybe it should be the War of the Two Matildas? Amberley Publishing Historia – the HWA youtube.com/watch?v=GJIaBd…
