There are many versions, but then they definitely didn’t know how to treat this.
Five palaces, 150,000 meters of fabric, 23 film sets and 50,000 actors – the scale with which the Magnificent Age was filmed was appreciated by millions of viewers around the world. Historically savvy fans of the series have found many discrepancies with reality.
One of the main ones is the mystery of Hürrem’s illness. The series showed that the sultana was suffering from abdominal pain. Also on many frames you can see the ulcers of Roksolana. She hid them under a scarf (around her neck) or in the folds of her robe. Fans put forward several versions: Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska could have cancer, suffer from heart failure, she could have been poisoned with a poisonous crocus. In fact, there is no consensus on the cause of the sultana’s death either.
Some say that she died of malaria, coupled with years of colic, which in recent weeks has made life unbearable for the lady. Others – that the cause of the death of the main woman in the harem was a banal sore throat.
