Henry VIII's Illegitimate Daughter

I'm kicking off a new series on Henry VIII, the second Tudor monarch who ruled from 1509 until his death in 1547. He’s a figure that fascinates and divides opinion, often seen as either a tyrant or a complex ruler who achieved much during his reign. 🚩👑 Want to join me for a deeper dive? I’m hosting a members-only livestream here on YouTube this Sunday, 28th July, at 10pm UK time / 5pm New York time.

While he had three legitimate children—Mary I, Elizabeth I, and Edward VI—and one acknowledged illegitimate son, Henry Fitzroy, Duke of Richmond and Somerset, there were whispers of other offspring. One such intriguing figure is Ethelreda Malte, whose life blends fact, conjecture, and Tudor intrigue. 🤫🔍 Join me as I unravel the mystery of Ethelreda Malte, also known as Etheldreda, Audrey or Esther. Born in the late 1520s or early 1530s, she was described as the "bastard daughter of John Malte, a tailor of the Great Wardrobe, by Joan Dyngley alias Dobson." Yet, there are compelling hints that she might have been Henry VIII's own child. 👶🔍 Could the king's generous grants to Ethelreda and John Malte suggest a deeper connection? What about her alleged close relationship with Queen Elizabeth I? And who was Ethelreda's mother, really? Dive into the enigma of Ethelreda Malte with me and discover the untold stories of the Tudor court. 📜👸 #TudorHistory #HenryVIII #EthelredaMalte #TudorMysteries #HistoryUncovered #IllegitimateChildren #TudorIntrigue #JoinTheDiscussion #Livestream 🔔 Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell so you never miss a new video! 📺👋 Watch now to uncover the secrets of Henry VIII's rumoured illegitimate daughter, Ethelreda Malte!
