Jane Seymour | Part 5: The Phoenix
-
Narrated by:

Written by:
On October 12, 1537, at around 2am. Jane Seymour gave birth to the son England had waited decades for.
In the final chapter of our Jane Seymour series, we step inside the celebrations surrounding Edward’s birth and christening before everything begins to change. We explore Jane’s prolonged labor, childbed fever, and what she may have experienced in her final days.
Because saying “Jane died in childbirth” does not begin to capture what she endured... she deserves more. And we will try our best to understand her story fully, even when it gets hard.
We then follow Jane beyond death, through the long road to her final resting place, what she left behind, and one last look back at the incredible journey we’ve taken with her.
This is The Phoenix.
