Elizabeth Tudor (September 7 1533 - March 24 1603)
‘All the trumpets, and knights and lords, and Heralds of Arms...and all the Bishops in scarlet, and the Queen, and all the footmen waiting upon the Queen to Westminster Hall; there met all the Bishops and all the Chapel with three crosses and in their copes, the Bishops mitred, and singing Salva festa dies; and all the street laid with gravel, and blue cloth unto the Abbey, and railed on every side, and so to the Abbey to Mass, and there her Grace was crowned’.

If I had a nickel for every time Tudor women killed Tudor men via suffocation in a period drama, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.
