Definitely not a crush, but a youthful Louis XVI has a certain charm about him.

Nobody beats the mustaches that one of Bulgaria's revolutionaries - Panayot Hitov had:  | | | |

It's very hard not to agree with her statement that "If I were to tell the full story of my life, it would shock the world." | I have to agree. She seemed like an amazing woman.

Indeed. Quite incidently, of most of the great and famous women mentioned thus far in this thread, she may well have been the one most willing to sleep with an admiring historian  | | | |

It seems Henry VIII Tudor had a contemporary (i.e. non-historical) crush on this or a similar image of Anna von Jülich-Kleve-Berg, his eventual fourth wife. 
As everyone here knows, that marriage was an absolute failure since its ill conception; even so, it was miles away more real than any "historical crush" ...
IMHO, the moral here would be that any bona fide historical crush would suggest an urgent need to turn off the monitor and immediately explore the so-called real world  .
