Synopsis

Arbella Stuart was born with royal blood, raised under watch, and treated as a possible queen her entire life. She never claimed the throne, but her lineage made her dangerous simply by existing. In this episode, we follow Arbella from her childhood under Bess of Hardwick to her secret marriage to William Seymour, and the dramatic 1611 escape attempt that ended in pursuit, capture, and imprisonment in the Tower of London. It’s the story of a woman who spent her life waiting for permission, and what happened when she finally stopped. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
