In her youth, she would have done something so risqué.

[Estella Bruni @EstellaBruniRP]

I’m sure I’ll be fine inside a ballroom. But I will wear a good warm one if out of doors. Maybe even patterned after the ocean waves.

[Katherine Neville @NorfolkDuchess]

You should find a cloak or you will catch your death of a cold!

[Estella Bruni @EstellaBruniRP]

I should wear this at Carnival and be a nymph.

[Katherine Neville @NorfolkDuchess]

The overlords have given her a headache.

[Katherine Neville @NorfolkDuchess]

Do you remember when you joined? I do! #MyXAnniversary

Six years of this sassy cane-toting duchess. Rejoice!

Two of her queens are here.

She needs a new wardrobe.

[Marguerite R @_LaReineRouge]

“Margaret impressed the English envoys sufficiently that from her arrival in Tours on 4 May - it took only three weeks for the marriage with Henry to be agreed and effected.”

Spoiler alert: A lot.

[Margaret Plantagenet (Parody) @OrphanedPeeress]

Uncle Richard is defeated. [Warps a scarf about her neck to protect it and secures her brother in bubble wrap]

What could go wrong?

[Elizabeth Wydville (Parody) @EWydville]

For someone of Katherine Neville’s age, she sure gets around.

@joanofnavarre forward gracefully and took a seat beside the Queen.

She carefully considered her response, knowing it would be court gossip if she chose poorly.

"I would like to hear the harpist play the king's compositions if it would please Your Grace," she smiled serenely.

[Katherine Neville @NorfolkDuchess]

@joanofnavarre As the eldest child of her parents' marriage, Katherine had been placed in the queen's household and talk of a good match was afoot.

Still, such generosity from the queen took Katherine back for a moment. Raising her chin up, mindful of her mother's admonitions, she moved ~

[Katherine Neville @NorfolkDuchess]

That's what I meant. Is the queen going to be displeased about the whereabouts of the king?

You know about the diabolical marriage, yes?

[Jehanne d’Évreux, Royne d’Angleterre @joanofnavarre]

One hopes not. But I was referring to Lady Elizabeth Wideville. You’ve been acquainted with the white queen, haven’t you?

"The tomb of the Black Prince reveals its secrets."

The team believe the Black Prince’s son, Richard II, commissioned both the effigies of his father and grandfather at the same time.

Dutifully, Katherine follows behind the Queen looking straight ahead with her spine straight as a board.

[Jehanne d’Évreux, Royne d’Angleterre @joanofnavarre]

Good morrow, court.

*The queen enters the great hall of Windsor Castle, followed by her ladies—some of them English, a few Bretons—wearing a smile on her face even though she’s more than aware of the English prejudice against her*

I’d be pleased if we start the day with music

[Jehanne d’Évreux, Royne d’Angleterre @joanofnavarre]

It is also announced today the visits of the Beauforts. Joan is very pleased to be left in charge of the court to receive them.

“Certainly, husband thought of me by sending them”, a thought occurs her as she promptly stands to receive Cardinal Beaufort and his brother John.

[Katherine Neville @NorfolkDuchess]

Is the King in a Southwark sewer yet again?

[Jehanne d’Évreux, Royne d’Angleterre @joanofnavarre]

Had she known what her husband has been up to…

[Katherine Neville @NorfolkDuchess]

I have a sharp tongue. What can I say.

And your brother and his tart of a wife and her beggar relatives makes it so bloody easy.

I like it more when you're mean. Preferably at others.
