Julie has a huge interest in the American heiresses that came over to Britain during the period called The Gilded Age – c.1870 – 1910. That’s when over 100 American heiresses married into the British Aristocracy, and 60 of those married first born sons. One of those 60 was Consuelo Vanderbilt. She was born in New York in 1877 and married the 9th Duke of Marlborough in 1895. Still a teenager, Consuelo had to say goodbye to her home country, to her family and marry the 9th Duke – someone she hardly knew. When she arrived at Blenheim, she must’ve been completely overwhelmed with the vast scale of the palace. During that period, Blenheim didn’t have all the modern amenities that Consuelo was used to, With her immense wealth, Consuelo helped modernise and save Blenheim Palace for future generations.
