The Spanish Princess
The Spanish Princess is a historical romance TV series that immerses viewers in the dramatic life of Catherine of Aragon, the first wife of King Henry VIII. Created by Emma Frost and Matthew Graham, the show is based on Philippa Gregory’s novels The Constant Princess and The King’s Curse.
It serves as a continuation of the mini-series The White Queen and The White Princess, expanding on the events of the Wars of the Roses while delving into a captivating story of love, betrayal, and royal ambition.
Set in the 16th century, the series follows Catherine of Aragon (Charlotte Hope), a Spanish princess betrothed to Prince Arthur, the eldest son of King Henry VII.
From the start, The Spanish Princess takes viewers into a world shaped by political intrigue, where royal marriages are more about power and strategic alliances than love. Catherine’s journey is one of resilience and determination as she navigates the challenges of court life, love, and her duties as a future queen.
