Swipe right or swipe left? 👀
In this episode of Historical Tinder, Rebecca is joined by Dr. Peter Stiffell, stepping in for Dr. Emma, to ask one tantalizing question: what if Mary I had married her longtime confidant and cousin Reginald Pole instead of Philip of Spain?

Grab your roses, sharpen your red flags, and join us as we put Mary and Reggie through the Historical Tinder test.
