The Royals and Rebels Who Lost Their Freedom

  • Resumen

  • Imagine being confined to your home with no hope of release. In Tudor times, house arrest wasn’t just an inconvenience; it was a political weapon used to control and punish powerful figures. In this video, I explore some of the most famous cases of house arrest in the Tudor period, from queens and princesses to ambitious courtiers. Catherine of Aragon was banished from court and separated from her daughter, while young Princess Elizabeth (the future Elizabeth I) was held under strict watch at Woodstock Palace. The Grey sisters lost their freedom for secret marriages, and Robert Devereux, Earl of Essex, learned the hard way that barging into the queen’s chambers uninvited was not a good idea! Some prisoners of house arrest eventually regained their power, while others never escaped their confinement. But was house arrest a merciful alternative to prison—or just another way to ruin lives?
