- Synopsis
- She was ready to endure all for the pleasures of love. Newly married to King Charles II, Catherine of Braganza has left her sheltered upbringing in Portugal for the notoriously licentious English court. She soon falls deeply in love with her charming, witty husband - but brought abruptly face to face with the true state of affairs at court, she becomes overwhelmed with despair. Catherine finds enemies everywhere: rivals for the King's affection and the more deadly Titus Oates - all determined to destroy her.
