Dan Snow's History Hit · Eleanor of Aquitaine · 13 Apr 2026 podcast

They divorce.

And the first thing that Eleanor has to do now is get hold of a new husband because there are multiple kidnapping attempts on her when she gets back because people are like, I will take the largest landholder in France.

Thank you very much.

I will forcibly marry her against her will.

Yep, don't care about that.

But Eleanor's got a plan, right?

And Eleanor's plan involves a young king named Henry.

It is absolutely wild because Henry is a teenager, right?

And Eleanor is in her later 20s at this point in time.

So Henry is a teenager.

He is also...

the hated King of England.

That is right.

Well, Eleanor doesn't want to be not a queen.

Come on.

And also, you know, Eleanor hates her ex.

And so it's like she kind of goes out of her way to find the person that would piss Louis off the most.

And she knows Henry has the hots for her.

because they've met on several occasions before, you know, doing queenly, kingly things, and he was very clearly, like, awooga at her.

So, I mean, this is the equivalent of, like, the pinup you keep on your wall as a teenager saying, hey, you want to get married?
