Today we are dissecting the hidden details of William Shakespeare’s private life. You know his romantic plays, characters and sonnets, but what was The Bard like as a lover? Did his marriage to farmer’s daughter, Anne Hathaway (no, not that one) inspire his work?

To hell if we know! Elizabethan gossip columnists SUCKED at archiving the juicy details. Alas, we are left to piece together the scant intel available to imagine what their marriage was like.

Join us as we dive into the historical and fictional depictions of their relationship based on their unconventional age gap, hearsay rumors, Shakespeare’s bizarre will, cryptic epitaph and more. Plus, we explore the looming questions around his sexuality and fidelity based on the Fair Youth and Dark Lady subjects of his sonnets.
