  1. I've put a couple of links below of websites where you can find general information from which to build up a picture of how princesses lived at that time.

    Cheers :-)


  2. First of all the concept of a “medieval princess” that we have been fed by Disney and the like is mostly anachronistic:

    “Princess is the feminine form of prince (from Latin princeps, meaning principal citizen). Most often, the term has been used for the consort of a prince, or her daughters.

    “For many centuries, the title "princess" was not regularly used for a monarch's daughter, who might simply be called "Lady"… most princesses in history were not immediate members of a royal family but women who married into it”

    So I think you’re question would be better phrases as looking for information on the daily lives of noble or royal ladies during the medieval period.
