233. The Plantagenets | Louis, the Would-Be French King of England
King John was such a disaster as King of England that the barons of England went to war against him, inviting French Prince Louis, son of French King Philip II to cross the channel and take the reins in London. Louis was married to John's sister, Blanche of Castile, which created a plausible claim to the throne if you squint. Arriving in May 1216, he quickly swept the country and was supported by both Wales and Scotland. Seriously, John was terrible. And then John died, in October of 1216, leaving his nine-year-old son as a rival to Louis. Suddenly, the barons who'd invited him saw an opportunity to increase their own power, and enforce the terms of the Magna Carta, by backing the boy king over the French prince. In no time flat, everyone had always been against this. Sponsors Give the gift of quality this holiday season! Download the Quince app for app-exclusive offers, or go to Quince.com.

230. MacBeth (Shakespeare’s Version)
Alicia is truly obsessed with Shakespeare's Macbeth and what a better time to talk about this particular work? The Scottish Play truly has everything trashy you like - witches, treachery, fate, fortune, murder and ultimate tragedy. None of it is historically accurate though. No matter – it is still an incredible tale that we will contract against the real-life figures soon in our Trashy Royals journey. Sponsors Give the gift of quality this holiday season!

227. The Romance of Prince Rainier and Grace Kelly
The Grimaldi family was considered scandalous enough in Queen Victoria’s time that she forbade any of her close relatives to marry into it, leading Prince Albert I of Monaco to marry an American heiress in 1889 – a precedent that would matter decades later when Prince Rainier III, urged on by none other than shipping tycoon Aristotle Onassis, began interviewing Hollywood A-listers for a very special role: Princess of Monaco.

226. The Grimaldi Curse | François the Spiteful and Prince Albert I
The House of Grimaldi has ruled the tiny principality of Monaco since January 8, 1297, when Francois “The Spiteful” Grimaldi disguised himself as a monk and knocked on his uncle’s castle door, launching a coup. In the violence that followed, according to legend, a woman – possibly a lover of Francois, possibly a witch he had wronged (can’t it be both?) – issued a curse that has resonated across the centuries: “Never will a Grimaldi find true happiness in marriage.” Sponsors Find the fall pieces you’ll reach for most at Quince.
