Elizabeth and Dudley?


 Elizabeth and Dudley? Did they or did not ?


That's a question on everyone's lips since 1560.

Rumors were raging at the English court and other European countries , many of them fueled by her own behavior.

She allowed Leicester all kinds of privacy in the sight of all the courtiers and her ladies.

He could burst into her royal apartments while the queen was not yet fully dressed.

Although I think they allowed themselves all kinds of intimacy with each other, I honestly don't think they went all the way.

And the biggest proof was when Elizabeth got smallpox in 1562 and thought she was dying. She swore that nothing inappropriate happened between them.

She probably wouldn't have risked jeopardizing her soul by telling such a lie.
