Description: Sophia Dorothea of Celle (1666-1726), or as we call her in this episode, S.D., is known as England's Uncrowned Queen. She was raised by loving parents who also loved her, but then got married off to her truly odious cousin and things did not go well.  References: The Imprisoned Princess: The Scandalous Life of Sophia Dorothea of Celle by Catherine Curzon Recommended history reading: African Europeans: An Untold History by Olivette Otele Recommended books on Bookshop.org Support Vulgar History on Patreon Vulgar History Merch Vulgar History is an affiliate of Bookshop.org, which means that a small percentage of any books you click through and purchase will come back to Vulgar History as a commission.
