And the answer, my curious queers, is: a lot!\nGeorge Villiers, the scheming twink who dominated King James I's court, was hot and 100% DTF. He won titles, land, and money for himself by sacrificing these gay virtues at the altar of the king's pleasure.\nBut who was George the man? Was his royal boyf really in love with him (or indeed George with James)? And were George's narcissistic antics responsible for driving the country into the ground, laying the path for King Charles I's beheading in 1649?\nJoin me and my fabulous, hilarious, and shockingly erudite guest, Guy Branum, to steep yourself in the deeply queer historical tea.\nFor more from Historical Homos, you can join our cult at: www.historicalhomos.com\nAnd follow us on Instagram and TikTok.
