Ivan the Terrible

You thought Henry the 8th was the worst. Welcome to his contemporary, Ivan The Terrible. Terrible might be too kind of a word. With eight wives and hundreds of thousands dead in his wake, Ivan was a master of cruelty and just might be the King of Trash for the 16th Century.

Joan of Kent

While the 14th century wasn't exactly a hotbed of feminist fervor in England, the place wasn't without its powerful and intriguing women. Joan of Kent was one. Though her family was caught up in the armed conflicts that ended the reign of Edward II, once Edward III threw off the restraints imposed by his mother, Isabella of France, he welcomed Joan's family - his relatives - back to his court. This might have been the happy end of Joan's role in history except for the little matter of her bigamy - and eventual marriage to Edward III's eldest son, Edward, the Black Prince. While the Black Prince did not live long enough to succeed his father, his union with Joan made her the mother of the final Plantagenet King of England, Richard II. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Trashy Breakup of Sarah Jessica Parker and Kim Cattrall

America swooned for Sex and the City, HBO's glamorous dive into the lives of four women in New York City at the bleeding edge of the 21st century. But early in the series run, there were already rumors of cast disputes, factions, and trouble on set. Had the show been less singular, and less beloved, the actresses likely would have emerged unscathed by the stories, but instead, Kim Cattrall and Sarah Jessica Parker have spent two decades fielding questions about their alleged feud, and plotting career strategies around the will-it or won't-it return of their most famous work product. It doesn't sound like it's been easy for either of them. Want early, ad-free episodes, regular Dumpster Dives, bonus divorces, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more?

The Windsor Beauties

The Court of Charles II wasn't merely a playhouse for the King's sexcapades. There was art, too! But as with everything Chuckie II related, the art was provocative as well. It all started with Anne, Duchess of York and Albany, wife of the future James II, whose standing at court was not immediately awesome upon the Restoration of the Monarchy. But she was good friends with the painter Sir Peter Lely, as well as fellow reputationally-challenged court lady Barbara Villiers. Anne connected the two, the portrait was painted, and then Anne engaged in a bit of a power play at court by choosing which women would sit for portraits. The paintings were widely copied and distributed in taverns and such, a sort of early version of dirty magazines in perhaps the trashiest court in English history.

As The Tudors Turn | Mary Tudor and Charles Brandon

After his father shipped his sister Margaret off to be the Queen of Scotland, it fell to Henry VIII to manage his baby sister Mary's love life. A genuine beauty, France's King Louis XII, then 52, was undoubtedly happy to walk down the aisle with the 18-year-old English princess. The bliss would not last, as just three or so months later, Louis was dead, with salacious whispers in the French court that Mary had "intercoursed" him to death. Ah, the 16th century. But this wasn't the end for Mary's heart, not by a long shot. It turns out that she had long nurtured a desire for Tudor courtier and man-about-town Charles Brandon. Charles's father had been a loyal partisan of Henry Tudor's claim to the throne before he became Henry VII, and Sir William Brandon had died at the Battle of Bosworth Field. Young Charles was raised at court, a few years older than Henry VIII, and enjoyed a bit of hero worship from the future king. He was also a scoundrel who fleeced a number of rich women (and girls) through the hazy definitions of marriage and engagement in the period. Still, in spite of Henry making him promise not to marry his sister, Charles was dispatched to France after the death of Louis XII to negotiate the young queen's return to England, and once there, the long-suffering Mary convinced the dashing man of her dreams to abandon the pledge and marry her anyway. Her brother was, to put it mildly, displeased. Listen ad-free at patreon.com/trashyroyalspodcast. To advertise on this podcast, reach out to info@amplitudemediapartners.com.

Birthday Bust: Andrew (Formerly Known As Prince) Arrested!

It's been a huge day in our Trashy Universe, with what might be the start of real, criminal accountability for a Jeffrey Epstein friend. Finally, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly Prince Andrew, has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office - what Americans would likely call "public corruption" - a charge that could land him in prison for life. Americans may still be fuming about elite impunity over here, but at least in the UK, someone powerful is entering the find-out phase. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Charles II Restored | Farewell, Barbara Villiers

Though their romance had cooled by the 1670s, Barbara Villiers and King Charles II remained close for the rest of his life. He gifted her Nonsuch Palace, originally built by Henry VIII and used often by Elizabeth I. Barbara, who fell on hard times after four years living in Paris, had Nonsuch Palace demolished so she could sell off the building materials to pay her gambling debts. The King died in 1685, but Barbara still had decades to go. In 1705, after the death of her long-suffering husband, she married a second time. Unfortunately, her new husband, Robert Fielding, was a gigolo who had married a different woman, believing her to be an heiress, just two weeks earlier. This became its own scandal and legal odyssey, but also a sort of fitting bookend for the life of Barbara Villiers, one of history's most interesting women, who died in 1709.

Donald Sutherland

Actor Donald Sutherland had a storied career in television and film and received tributes from notable people around the world when he passed away last month. As central a character as he was on film and screen, his personal life in young adulthood was no less exciting - his two divorces and notorious early-70's affair with Jane Fonda wouldn't have led anyone to believe that his third walk down the aisle would be the charm, but indeed it was.

Catherine of Valois

Alicia continues with our inexorable march to the Tudor dynasty with yet another French princess contributing to the Plantagenet - now technically Lancastrian - line of the English monarchy. Her marriage to King Henry V, grandson of John of Gaunt and great grandson of King Edward III, was cut tragically short when Henry died on military adventure in France. Doubly tragically, Henry's child with Catherine, Henry VI, had been born just months before his demise. What's a 21-year-old, beautiful, royal Dowager Queen to do? An early flirtation with a member of the Beaufort line was stymied by an act of Parliament, but all's well that ends well, because that left the door open for a (presumably) dashing young Welshman employed in the household by the name of Owen Tudor. Yes - through a possible secret marriage to Catherine - he became the grandfather of those Tudors. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
