The White Princess is a 2013 historical novel by Philippa Gregory, part of her series The Cousins' War. It is the story of Elizabeth of York, daughter of Edward IV of England and Elizabeth Woodville, and later wife of Henry VII and mother of Henry VIII.[1][2]
In October 2013, The Telegraph reported that Starz was planning to develop a miniseries based on The White Princess. This adaptation would be a sequel to The White Queen, a 10-part 2013 television series which adapted Gregory's novels The White Queen (2009), The Red Queen (2010) and The Kingmaker's Daughter (2012). Production on the eight episode limited series began in June 2016.[3]
For those who already dearly miss Essie Davis as Lady Crane, who got assassinated in the show's most recent installment, great news: you'll soon see her again in The White Princess.
