14 children. I can’t get over it! They must’ve really liked each other.

I recently cam across the mini series "The White Queen". It tells the story of Jaquetta's daughter Elizabeth Woodville. In it the strength and family devotion shown by Jaquetta was at the forefront. Her careful guidance of her family into the royal atmosphere was a force to behold.

Oh thank you this one hit close to home cause 16 generations ago this woman started my lineage and im honored to say she's my 16th great grandmother and queen Elizabeth is my great great aunt two amazing intelligent strong women

Jon, your videos are such high quality. They put all others in this category to shame! The optics are fantastic. Your voice is superb. Thank you for all your work.

Ooohh Jacquetta of Luxembourg! Dowager Duchess of Bedford, Married hid squire, began a Dynasty, Her best and dearest friend Margaret of Anjou, her daughter marries "The Enemy" and becomes Queen in lieu of her BFF! It's like a Telenovela! I'm stunned her story is only recently being told because Out of all the 'mini plotlines' from the Cousin's War/War of the Roses apart from the disappearance of her grandsons and the rightful King from the Tower, Jacquetta's Story was unsung for ages. Lady Rivers. I ❤️ this video! Just *loved* it thank you for your hard work !

It's one thing to belong to a powerful family and another thing to know how to use that power. Jaquetta and her husband clearly had the intelligence needed to use that power for the benefit of the family. Thank you for telling her story.

Thanks for the story on Jaquetta of Luxembourg. She was a strong brave person regardless of how many lies were told about her she still came out on top

As good as expected. Graphics and illustrations were phenomenal

An amazing story. 'A book about her I've read does not do her the justice she receives today. People prefer stories like "The She-Wolves of France" and placing strong women as evil in some way. But her light shines through it all. She was all about family.

Looking forward to watching this ☺️

I watch many of your videos and have since the beginning and thought I caught your uploads as they came out, but I didn't see this one and I'm currently on a Jaquetta Of Luxembourg kick too! The mermaid aspect intrigues me to no end. I somehow, believe it to be at least a possibility, due to the enigma behind her descendants and herself, as well. Thank you for this. As always, beautiful storytelling❣️💫

fun fact : Jacquetta Duchess of Bedford was a godmother to Edward of York ( the future King who would go on to marry her daughter)

Recently discovered she is my 18th great grandmother

I feel sympathetic for King Richard iii, although a controversial monarch .... But I am a staunch Yorkist.❤❤❤❤ Brothers of King Edward iv were really fantastic and amazing 😍😍😍😍
