Published: April 1, 2026
Video Description
What happened to the Princes in the Tower? The disappearance of Edward V of England and Richard of Shrewsbury, Duke of York in 1483 is one of the most famous unsolved mysteries in British history and now, a shocking new DNA test could finally reveal the truth about the lost sons of Edward IV and Elizabeth Woodville.
In this video, we investigate a dramatic new claim that the bones discovered in the Tower of London beneath a staircase in 1674 have been scientifically tested and confirmed to match the patrilineal DNA of Richard III of England, whose skeleton was discovered in 2012, leading to him being called ‘The King in the Carpark’. Could this be the breakthrough historians have been waiting for? Does this finally prove the identity of the Princes in the Tower and solve a 500-year-old mystery and does it exonerate Henry VII from having played any role in their deaths?
This deep dive from History Calling explores the history of the Princes in the Tower, the role of Richard III in the disappearance of his nephews, the political intrigue of the Wars of the Roses and the ongoing debate over what really happened in 1483. This Plantagenet history documentary is a must-watch for anyone interested in royal history, historical mysteries and true historical crime stories.
If you want the story of the Princes in the Tower explained to you in barely four minutes flat or if you’re interested in Richard III and the princes and the mysteries of the Tower of London this video covers it all.
Watch to the end for the full story and a twist you might not expect.
