Exclusive: Charlotte Hope and Ruairi O’Connor Talk ‘The Spanish Princess’ Part Two

Coming out this week is the second part of their historical drama The Spanish Princess, the limited series where Queen Catherine continues to fight for her place in the court despite already proving herself as a politician, a diplomat, and a warrior. Starring Charlotte Hope, “The Spanish Princess” Part Two returns on Sunday, October 11th at 8PM ET/PT on STARZ.

The 8-episode drama is the second installment of the limited series follow-up to the Golden Globe® and Emmy® award-nominated STARZ Original Miniseries “The White Queen” and the critically acclaimed STARZ Original Limited Series “The White Princess.” Produced by Playground and All3 Media’s New Pictures, the 8-episode drama is drawn from the global best-selling novels, The Constant Princess and The King’s Curse, written by Philippa Gregory.

The concluding half of the STARZ Original Limited Series “The Spanish Princess,” continues the story of Queen Catherine (Charlotte Hope) and Henry VIII (Ruairi O’Connor). Presiding over the most glamorous court in Europe and beloved by their people, together they create an England that is proud, confident and strong enough to withstand threat from abroad. Catherine’s struggle to produce an heir places her marriage and position in the court at risk, and she is haunted by her choices from the past. Despite proving herself a politician, a diplomat, a national inspiration and even a military commander, Catherine must battle to save her love with the King, and to preserve the peace and prosperity of their reign.
