  • 130. Wallis, Duchess of Windsor | Thelma Furness

    130. Wallis, Duchess of Windsor | Thelma Furness
    Jun 30 2025
    This week, we progress in our journey to the last lover of the Prince of Wales, before Wallis, that is. Thelma Furness enters the picture. Thelma comes with her own legend, being one of the Magical Morgan Twins, along with her sister Gloria. Thelma thinks she can trust her good friend Wallis to keep an eye on “her little man” when she is needed to support her sister, Gloria Morgan Vanderbilt, back in the United States, who is stuck right in the middle of the “trial of the century,” concerning the custody status of little Gloria Vanderbilt. How history does turn on such things…it does not work out great for Thelma, at least when it comes to David. Listen ad-free at patreon.com/trashyroyalspodcast.

    We continue our journey into the love life of the Prince of Wales this week introducing the lovely, and married, Freda Dudley Ward. This phenomenal woman was romantically involved with David for 15 years, and he sure liked it that way, until he didn’t.

    128. Wallis, Duchess of Windsor | Edward’s Early Loves
    Jun 25 2025
    In this week’s exciting episode of our Wallis, Duchess of Windsor series, we change the focus to the Prince of Wales. With a complicated childhood without a whole lot of family love, you can see how it would be easy for David to be swayed by romance. He does this romance dance quite a lot – sometimes with suitable girls, sometimes not. In this episode, we will explore a few of David’s first loves, including Marion Coke, Lady Sybil Cadogan, Marguerite Alibert, and Rosemary Leveson-Gower. No gal is going to ever be good enough for David at this time, at least according to his royal family. Also, there is a little blackmail and murder thrown into the mix too.

    126. Wallis, Duchess of Windsor | Her Lotus Year and The China Dossier
    Jun 19 2025
    Hold onto your conspiracy theories in this one, darlings! Wallis took a lot of heat for the year she spent in the Orient, her Lotus Year. Many folks pinned a whole lot of terrible deeds on Wallis this year, largely all untrue. Her year in China becomes the basis for the future China Dossier, which was supposed to dissuade the Prince of Wales from his married lover. That plan did not work out too well, and this year, Wallis truly steps into being the woman she is to become. Also, she will break with Win Spencer, for good.
