Meanwhile, the Duchess of Burgundy (Joanne Whalley) is causing trouble from across the English Channel.
Throw in bouts of domestic unrest, a spreading sickness, and a surprising twist of witchcraft, and The White Princess is a series in which nobody is safe.
Lizzie and Henry are alternately counseled and manipulated by their respective mothers.
Lizzie’s sister Cecily (Suki Waterhouse) and cousin Maggie (Rebecca Benson) are her companions, even as Maggie’s younger brother Teddy (Rhys Connah) is in grave danger as the last surviving male heir of Richard III.
