Elizabeth Blount: The Mistress Who Changed Tudor History

Elizabeth Blount, a lady-in-waiting at the Tudor court, became one of the most talked-about figures of her time due to her relationship with King Henry VIII. Born into the Blount family of Shropshire, Elizabeth's beauty and charm caught the attention of the young King. Their liaison resulted in the birth of a son, Henry Fitzroy, whom the King openly acknowledged and even ennobled as the Duke of Richmond. Despite the public nature of their relationship, Elizabeth managed to navigate the treacherous waters of the Tudor court and later married Gilbert Tailboys, 1st Baron Tailboys of Kyme, with whom she had three children. Elizabeth's life reflects the complexities and intrigues of the early Tudor period, making her a fascinating figure in England's history.
