Alexandra Romanov: Fanatical Tsaritsa or Determined Wife and Mother? | Wicked Women: The Podcast

Step back into the world of glittering palaces, violent revolutions, mystical healers, and one woman’s struggle to survive it all. In today’s episode, I will be discussing the life and legacy of Tsaritsa Alexandra Feodorovna Romanov, the last Tsaritsa of Russia. Tsaritsa Alexandra’s legacy is a complicated one. The contempt and hatred felt for her during her lifetime and expanded upon during the communist regime in Russia have created an image of an overbearing, fanatical, evil woman hell-bent on Russia’s destruction. Her strong will and natural reserve have helped to create a version of Alexandra as haughty and cold. She was altogether a more complex woman. Featured Guests: Helen Rappaport, an international best-selling author and historian on the life of the last Romanov Imperial Family, and James Boulton, the creator of the popular podcast series The Queens of England and The Other Half.
