What happens when a Belgian-German princess, Lady Calliope, is declared illegitimate and thrust into the heart of the British Royal Court? "The Yorks" delves into the remarkable life of Lady Calliope, a princess who lost her royal title due to her parents' divorce, relegating her to the role of a Lady-in-waiting. Sent to the British Royal Court at the age of 16, Lady Calliope becomes a close confidante of Queen Mother Amanda, and her story takes a dramatic turn when she enters a secret relationship with King Richard II. This relationship leads to a divorce with Mary White, King Richard II's former wife, and Lady Calliope's ascent to the position of Queen Consort. Her journey doesn't end there; she exercises de facto political and royal powers, even after the King's death, ruling as a powerful Queen Regent. "The Yorks" presents a captivating tale of transformation, love, and power as Lady Calliope rises from being a displaced princess to a formidable Queen Regent in the heart of the British monarchy.
