Who Did What Now 62. Gráinne O Malley - Ireland's Pirate Queen
An amazing woman from Irish history who once divorced her husband by shouting at him through a window, shocked the entirety of Queen Elizabeth I's court besieged more than one castle to avenge a loved one!
Gráinne O Malley, went by many names, Gráinne Uí Maille, Gráinne Mhaol and Gráinuaile... Not once in her lifetime did she ever go by the name "Grace" - in fact those names have nothing in common. If you call her Grace, you are wrong. That is not and has never been her name. The Irish pirate queen had her name and her personhood stripped away by an olde English dude who thought her Irish name should sound more palatable.
