"Elizabeth’s relationship with Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester, was perhaps the most important in her life. The savage possessiveness with which she wrote of him - ‘a creature of our own’, as she described him, with all the imperiousness of the royal ‘we’ - in no way diminished his importance in her eyes. For a woman so short of surviving blood relations, he was the nearest thing she had to family."
— Sarah Gristwood, Elizabeth and Leicester: The Truth about the Virgin Queen and the Man She Loved.

Now will I end, that do imagine I talk still with you, and therefore loathly say farewell ôô, though ever I pray God bless you from all harm, and save you from all foes with my millions of legion of thanks for all your pains and cares. 
 As you know, ever the same, E.R.

Things I learned today:
As a child, Queen Victoria occasionally played with Sir John Conroy's daughters (one was also named Victoria)
There is an opera/ballet called Kenilworth based on Queen Elizabeth I, Robert Dudley, and Amy Robsart.
Queen Victoria "went to the opera and saw the ballet, of which she was very fond, several times."
Queen Victoria had a whole set of dolls based on this ballet. She made Amy and Robert Dudley herself.

So modern AU RPF for Robert Dudley Earl of Leicester/ Elizabeth I Queen of England based on a Taylor Swift song is a thing that exists.
If you understand that string of words I'm sorry but also that's kinda your fault really

 On September 21 1578, Robert Dudley married Lettice Knollys in a secret ceremony, it had been secretive that only his chaplain and his friends were informed of it the day before. The Earl of Leicester was marrying the woman Elizabeth I had dubbed "the She-Wolf", the Queen herself was filled with rage upon learning about their marriage that she banished Lettice from court, however she was able to rekindle with Dudley later on.

The Queen is in very good terms with you, and, thanks be to God, well pacified, and you are again her “sweet Robin”. Raleigh to Dudley, 1586.
