Fan Casting Adela de Warenne in Robin Hood and the House of Plantagenet (TV-Series)

A discarded player and former mistress to Prince John, whose affair was made scandalous by their shared blood as cousins. Having recently borne him a son, she once occupied the heart of his inner circle but now finds herself eclipsed by the high-stakes political brides and matriarchs pulling John’s strings. No longer the focus of his ambition, Adela must rely on her sharp survival instincts and the powerful Warenne name to navigate a court that views her as a spent asset. She remains a quiet, observant presence, leveraging her family’s influence to secure her son’s future while watching her former lover become a pawn in a much deadlier game.
