Were the 'Princes in the Tower' illegitimate? Did Henry VIII really have six wives? How virginal was 'the Virgin Queen'? Was James, Duke of Monmouth the heir to the throne, or just one of Charles II's bastards? Did George IV marry a German princess or a Catholic widow? Was Queen Victoria 'Mrs Brown'? The answers to such questions provide the context within which six disputed royal marriages must be understood.
