About Mary Tudor Queen Of France

  • Mary Tudor (; March 1496 – 25 June 1533) was an English princess who was briefly Queen consort of France, the progenitor of a family that eventually claimed the English throne.
  • She was the younger surviving daughter of King Henry VII of England and Elizabeth of York, and the third wife of Louis XII of France, who was more than 30 years older than she.
  • Following his death, she married Charles Brandon, 1st Duke of Suffolk.
  • The marriage was performed secretly in France during the reign of her brother Henry VIII and without his consent.
  • This necessitated the intervention of Thomas Wolsey; Henry eventually pardoned the couple, but they were forced to pay a large fine. Mary's second marriage produced four children, and she was the maternal grandmother of Lady Jane Grey through her oldest daughter Frances.
  • Grey was the de facto Queen of England for nine days in July 1553.
