four months later, his archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Cranmer declared Henry's marriage
to Catherine null and absolutely void and pronounced his marriage to Ann good and lawful,
Mary was 17 years old.
therefore, Mary was illegitimate, suddenly this child who'd been treated like the most
special girl around is told that she has to say from now on she is a bastard.
like her mother, Mary refused to accept this decree, the bond between mother and
daughter became stronger, they would totally dedicate it to the traditional form of
catholicism that henry had abolished.
right at the center of Mary's life was a drama, it is called the mass, it's a drama
of light and color and latin and music, and at the heart of it you make God on a
table out of bread and wine, and to Mary that was absolutely central.
when Catherine's health began to deteriorate, Mary was banished from her room, Catherine
died in 1536 without ever seeing her daughter again. Mary finally signed her father's
active succession in the same year, but she didn't hide her hatred of Ann Boleyn.
I think Mary is pushed aside by Ann Boleyn, there is no doubt about that, she would
have regarded as her mother regarded Ann Boleyn as what the Spanish ambassador always
calls Ann Boleyn which is "the whore"
she is very obstinate, very difficult, I mean that comes out very clearly in her
conflict with her father and in her relation with Ann Boleyn, what you see and
what you get and pretty rough it is too when she's in that mood.
Now in her earily 20s, the constant psychological strain began to take it toll on
Mary's health.
it's appeared of enormous stress for her, I mean, she has menstrual problems anyway,
almost the world go and they get very much worse.
her disfavour with her father led Mary to live in fear of her life.
there were rumors in 1534 and 1535 of Mary's execution. the rumors are circulating
amonst the ambassadors and amonst Mary's support network, a court, Certainly Mary
has a profound fear of being poisoned, and this fear never really leaves her.
Mary's fragile physical and mental state took a further blow when Henry finally had
a child with his fourth wife, Jane seymour, in 1537 |
