| House of York Series / int_120a6a29 | comment |
Artistic Licence – History: There is no evidence that Edward met Elizabeth Woodville prior to his becoming king. There is no evidence that the widowed Lady Eleanor Butler was also involved with Henry Beaufort, Duke of Somerset. Alasia and Edward's romance is fictional. Richard, Duke of Gloucester almost certainly did not personally slay the Earl of Warwick at the Battle of Barnet, let alone have any sort of confrontation with him. | |
