Episode notes

- Her confessor, Fray Diego Fernández, became more than just her spiritual advisor.
- His influence over her raised eyebrows, sparked gossip, and even angered kings.

This is a fascinating and rarely told chapter in Catherine’s life—one that shaped her future in the treacherous world of Tudor politics.
