    May 24 2026
    Content Warning: This episode contains graphic descriptions of domestic violence. Taylor Frankie Paul's relationship with Dakota was far more violent than we knew, and the violence has continued into 2026. The pair have recently been in court seeking mutual protective orders, and, to her credit, Taylor acknowledged that she was indeed part of the problem. For his part, Dakota acknowledged that Taylor was the entire problem. The judge was not impressed, and while their legal saga continues, this is the end of our extended introduction to Taylor Frankie Paul - though we're pretty sure we'll meet her again.

  • 625. Hortense Mancini's Wild English Adventure
    May 10 2026
    After escaping her abusive husband, Hortense spent some time on the lam. She published her memoirs, which made her a celebrated author, and then, at the urging of the English ambassador, headed to London to "see her niece" - and within months, was yet another mistress of Charles II. And soon after, Charles II's eldest daughter with Barbara Villiers. There were plenty more lovers to come, so to speak, as well.

    May 6 2026

Today, in this Trashy Royals crossover, we meet the last mistress to join that odd club, Hortense Mancini. Born to a big brood in Rome - Hortense was the eighth of ten - the family moved to Paris after her father's death, where her uncle Cardinal Mazarin gave them entry to the French court and planned for his nieces' futures as wives. He chose poorly in the case of Hortense, but her unhappy marriage ultimately propelled her to the shores of England, as well as making her a celebrated writer.
