#PhilippaDeCoucy was married in childhood to #RobertDeVere, who became notorious for an 'obscene familiarity' with #RichardII & then for abducting a lady-in-waiting of the Queen: Robert's mother #MaudUfford invited Philippa to live with her at #GreatBentley. Robert fled after the Battle of #RadcotBridge, never to be seen in England again.
📷 the Vere family badge of the boar was a pun: Latin, verres. 🧵 8/
