Charles II was King of England, Scotland and Ireland from 1660 to 1685. Also known as the Merry Monarch, he is infamous for his numerous mistresses and rowdy court- but there’s a lot more to Charlie than debauchery and scandal. This blog is here to showcase every aspect of his life, with a generous dollop of humour thrown in.

That's awesome, thank you! I've read some of the accounts, including what I think is the earliest one, but I doubt I've read all of this. Thank you very much, this will be really useful :D

Oh. OH MY GOD. Anon, I have had extended drunken conversations on this topic. They are a perfect fit. Possibly for Spinal Tap, but a perfect fit nonetheless.

The best bit is that his real hair was even more fabulous than the wig. He looks like he could be in Led Zeppelin or something. (and let's be honest, with his ~extracurricular achievements~ the...

Anon, I am 99% sure this is historical fact. I found a quote once about him launching himself at someone from halfway down a corridor, if I can find it again I'll post it for you.

I know. I KNOW. I mean, I think it was general upset rather than HARDCORE CRYING, but yeah. And of course, he'd cried buckets years before when Catherine almost died. They were pretty devoted...

To be fair to his doctors, at least they didn't cover him in pigeons or blow smoke up his bum.

The guy had at least a dozen recognised illegitimate children, I'm prepared to believe that just about anybody is related to him.

Oh god, yes. I think if Charles and Catherine had had heirs rather than plague, fire, and Titus Oates, things would have been rather more successful than they were and there might have been less ...
