  • Summary

  • Was Bridgerton's Lady Whistledown based on a real person? This week, Maia talks to us about the original Lady Whistledown, Mrs. Crackenthorpe, and whether her true identity is Thomas Baker, or, more likely, Delarivier Manley. Join us as we dive into the gossip pages that were all the rage during this period of whispers and intrigue. Women get published, reputations get ruined, and we attempt to separate fact from fiction. Oh, and do you want to meet the real Lady Cowper? This week, on Well, I Laughed!
