Almost from the moment her head was severed from her body, Jane Boleyn, Viscountess Rochford has been an easy scape goat for all of the drama surrounding the downfall of her husband George, sister in law Anne and the teenage queen she was executed alongside, Katheryn Howard. In reality, there is basically nothing to support the long held belief that Jane actively plotted against the family she had married into. To discuss this fascinating woman with me, I am thrilled to welcome Julia Fox onto the podcast for the first time. Julia joins me today to discuss Janes story, the truth of her role in May 1536, what on earth she was thinking when aiding in Katheryn Howard's adultery and what her actual legacy should be.
