History Tea Time

• Diana, Princess of Wales

  Lady Diana Spencer was the daughter of an Earl and was hand picked at 19 to become the bride of heir to the throne, Charles, Prince of Wales. But he was already in love with another woman and the fairytale marriage soon devolved into a messy divorce splashed across the tabloids. Though she would never get to be Queen, Diana’s glamor, likability and compassionate charity work made her the Queen of Hearts. In 1997 she died tragically in a car crash while being chased by paparazzi. Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!

• Caroline Astor, The Queen of Gilded Age New York

  Caroline was born into old money, and married into the richest new money family in the world. She became the ultimate Queen bee, determining who was and was NOT part of the illustrious 400, the high society of gilded age New York. A coveted invitation to one of her balls was the ultimate achievement for social climbers. Those left off the list might as well catch the next train to Toledo. Like her parties, her feuds were the stuff of legend and sparked major developments in New York City real estate. But under the shimmering veneer was a woman troubled by an unhappy marriage and personal insecurities. Let’s take a journey from her well heeled origin in the oldest part of the City, past the Fifth Avenue Landmarks from wench she once reigned over Manhattan, to her final resting place in the heights. Along the way we’ll get to know the real Mrs. Astor. Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!

• LGBTQ Rulers of the World

  Sexuality and gender politics have differed from culture to culture and age to age throughout history. The concept of homosexuality as an identity only emerged in the 20th century. Prior to that gay and lesbian relationships and activities were commonplace but were thought of as something one did rather than part of one’s identity. There have been many historic figures who are noted to have preferred their own gender for romance and sex. Here are the stories of 5 rulers from ancient to modern times who are known to have had homosexual love affairs: Alexander the Great (356 BC – 323 BC) Emperor Ai of Han (27 BC – 1 BC) Caliph Al-Hakam II (915AD-976) King Gongmin of Goryeo (1330 – 1374) Tsar Ferdinand I of Bulgaria (1861 – 1948) Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!
