Finally got around to watching Lucy worsleys six wives and she called Anne Boleyn the “original other woman” as if no man had ever had an affair before that moment in time lmao

Hm, I don’t remember the context for it (if she was saying that has been the perception of her ever since, or if she was saying it is a declaration), but I do remember finding her take on Anne rather…anemic…and lackluster.

As far as the wives “as you’ve never seen them before” (iirc the tagline/ hook was something like that), I mean…no? Not really? I definitely didn’t watch it feeling like “I’ve never seen them presented in this way before!” There weren’t really any dimensions added, imo.
