♡ The Virgin’s Lover ♡
When I was 8 years old, I had a crush on John Smith from ‘Pocahontas’.
Strange, I know. But I did not think it that strange to have a crush on a cartoon character at that age.
And it never happened again….
…until the other day.
Although, this time it isn’t a cartoon character, but a character from a book.
I recently read this book called “The Virgin’s Lover” by Philippa Gregory, and I think that I developed a crush on Robert Dudley.
O.M.G, I know!
In my defence, Robert Dudley was a real historical figure/person. Oh wait. But so was John Smith…
But!…he was reported to be like INCREDIBLY handsome!… No?
All I’m saying is that if I was around at Queen Elizabeth’s court, I would allow Lord Robert to have his wicked way with me.
I don’t know why, or where, this crush is came from…either from the saucy tale told by Gregory in this book…or maybe from the fact that I am a self confessed Tudor obsessive, idk.
Maybe something a little deeper?
