Thank you so much for a lovely history of this woman.
She was a brilliant politician and never risked her son in the process of negotiating the complexities she faced and overcame. This is the most interesting historical story of all time.
They have great personage. Translated, fat.
What an amazing woman. A perfect protector and mother of a king. Margaret's intelligence and perseverance lead to a great historic outcome.
As soon as my balls stop itching, its back to sleep for me! Woohoo.
she probably wasn’t the completely ‘saintly’ figure that has come down in a lot of Tudor writing and the books of certain historians.
She was fiercely intelligent—and appeared to be possibly quite devious with it. There were reports she kept Elizabeth of York under her thumb, and one Ambassador disliked her so much, he called her something like ‘a bitch.’
When she died her confessor, John Fisher (later executed by her lovely grandson) said that she had an cool demeanor in public but when in the confessional she would scream and cry hysterically. The fact he mentioned it makes it seem unlikely to have been considered normal behaviour.
I believe she would have liked to be Queen herself so was always a constant black shadow behind her son’s throne. ‘My Lady the King’s Mother’ was what folk had to call her. One time she actually did sign her name Margaret R. This could be for ‘Richmond’ but it was a very unusual way of signing , and she was a smart woman who would have been well aware of the significance of what she’d written.
I think it says a lot that Margaret’s husband came to the rescue of her son and was likely the reason he won the battle to become king, by throwing his brother’s army into the fray behind his stepson, despite being a longtime friend of the soon to be usurped king PRIOR to marrying Margaret. Essentially he changed allegiance for his wife and stepson, thereby changing the course of history. Margaret was a powerful woman indeed ❤️.

That was a very wonderful documentary on Margaret Beaufort. Thank You for making this kind of historical information available to us all! ❤😊 👏
Josephine Tey's mystery 'The Daughter of Time', I feel, is a must read for those prone to charm with history.
"Do I think she was single handedly responsible for Henry's accession to the throne? "..
Yes!! I can almost bet on the fact that her husband's refusal to commit to Richard 3 at that battle was a direct result of her entreaties to him for support.
Sounds like a fully mature and adult version of Mark from Peep Show narrating, and I am here for it!
This is amazing thank you I'm honored to have watched this ❤
Why are there so few names to choose from in English royalty?
Imagine if Henry hadn't been up to the task? Margaret would not be so celebrated. Im glad he made it so we could all learn about his amazing mother
If it is known that she was just 13 giving birth, why is the year of her birth in question?
I'll never understand the marriage of CHILDREN married off to older people. 13 may have been considered "adult" by age but physically, the child is still growing. Far to young to have a child and far to immature for marriage.
Margaret was highly intelligent, manipulative,her love for her son unparalleled but luck played a v important role in her life ,with Richard the 3rds death, otherwise who knows what the consequences would be.
What a woman. In what ways did Cambridge University honorbher?
She surely was a farsighted and ambitious manipulator.
I can't imagine 😢 what a tough ordeal at such a young age, giving birth!
What an absolute strong and powerful woman this was I can't believe I didn't know of her sooner so many times she overcame impossible circumstances to come out on top in a time that a woman doing this was unheard of truly amazing
Wasn't Margaret's official reason for going along with the marriage of her son to E. of York to finally unite previously rival families? But could she have also realized that if the princes in the t. ever showed up later, that E. of Y. wouldn't have admitted to recognizing them because that would cause her to sacrifice her position as queen to become just another sister of a king?
Tragic life. Becoming a mother age 12! Almost killed her, she could not have more children. Her son was all she had and in danger because of politics, so she had to separate. When he came back and became king the tragic did not end. First Arthur died, then Elizabeth of York the Queen, Then her son died : The Countess died in the Deanery of Westminster Abbey on 29 June 1509. This was the day after her grandson Henry VIII's 18th birthday, 5 days after his coronation and just over two months after the death of her son.
That she outlived her son must have been hell for her. I wish that on no one.
This is interesting

I hope Margaret Beaufort is burning in hell with Charlemagne, King John I, King Henry III, King Edward I, King Henry VII, King Henry VIII, Marie de Medici, King Louis XIV, Prince Edward, Duke of Kent and Strathearn, Queen Victoria, King Edward VII, King George V, King Edward VIII, King George VI, and Prince Philip. 👗👠👑💍
Was Henry considered a "prince" when he was young? I don't recall Edmund Tudor being the son of a prince or king.
Margeret Beaufort is my ancestor. Fascinating to have such great resources about people I have a small connection with. Wish there were good records for the swathes of ordinary people too, but this is not always the case.
Richard III was a nasty man way more nastier than he was protrayed in the series the white queen on Starz network . They prorayed him as loyal to Edward his brother . Richard was a power hungry man that coveted his brothers psition . Gee that sounds like another Prince we know in todays time . His given name Henry AKA harry windsor Duke of Sussex trying to discredit his own Brothers position as heir to the throne . Poor William to have a traitor for a brother must be devestating
The war of the Roses was the most bloodiest times and facinacnting times too. The marrying of King Edward the 4th daughter Elizabeth of York to Henry VIiI brought on the Tudor Dynasty . Its like a medevl soap oprea . Henry VIII 6 wives and the begining of Queen Elizabeth I era .
She would be a world leader today.
Lady Margrete was truly a remarkable❤❤❤❤❤❤ woman , with an honourable son that was truly greatful to her.
please, can someone tell me what the accent of the voice actor is called?
This woman is the main character you’ve never heard of.
Great Woman no doubt, i think she went through everything – good and Bad – which you could imagine. Today s time she would have the skill, Power and physis to. Be Queen of Great britain. But what should also be mentioned is her faithful husband Stanley who was for sure the Turning point levelling and paving the way for henry becoming Later on King henry 7. without him i was not sure of the later phase of her life would have been so greatful.. but eventually this proves her great personality as Staneley would not have Made this for not such an exquiste woman. My Deepest respect to her ❤
So disturbing as she was only 13 when she married Edmund who was in his mid twenties and had given his oath not to consummate the marriage until she was much older. Apparently this was one of the conditions given for the union. Edmund Tudor mother was Catherine ….the widow of Henry V who had married Owen Tudor after his death and was also Henry VI mother. Henry VI grandfather Henry Bolingbroke was the son of John of Gaunt by his 2nd wife. Joan Beaufort who was a daughter of John of Gaunt through his relationship with Katherine Swynford had married a Beaufort who was a relative of Margaret Beaufort father.
It's crazy how many dates they remember when someone is having sex or when they have parties and wars, but when your born hum, let's pick a date?😂😮
I bet she was hell to live with!
The OG, medieval, mama bear
Think about it. Margaret Beaufort was a gg-daughter of Edward III, Warrior King and considered The Greatest King of England. She was the g-great niece of The Black Prince and direct lineage to his brother, John of Gaunt, a brilliant strategist, calculating businessman and Always Family First… This Warrior Woman, Margaret Beaufort, had heard the stories of her ancestors AND KNEW SHE CARRIED THEIR BLOODLINE.
I wish I could shake her hand. What. A. Legacy. Courage. Focus. Honor. Family First.
P.S. Thank you for lifting her up like this with details of service and generous help to others that others leave out.
Well done. Thank you.
Rxcellent docu !!!!
Sad henryv111 didn't inherit her Nobility of charachter
Well yes Margaret is depicted as a rather great woman, but needs to be matched up with other accounts of her life as Henry the 8th was a very evil man and the Tudors that followed were also very cruel, yes check out Elizabeth 1st behaviour etc. There definately something evil running through this family, some curse was on them.
Thank alot for this history lesson which was helpful to me. I am looking into the background of Henry the 8th to see what was the root cause if his homicidal maniac killings of peoples. Well one can see it is deeply rooted in his background to rule and be on top. So this woman, Margaret had to fight for survival but it seems it became an obsession to have the family line succeed in the top monarcy status. Interesting vid.
