Mary boleyn's Life Experience

Mary was born in Blickling Manor in Norfolk and grew up in Heffer Castle in Kent. She is the daughter of wealthy diplomats Sir Thomas Boleyn and Mrs Elizabeth Howard. At present, there is no physical evidence to show her date of birth, but it is obviously sometime between 1499 and 1508. Most historians prefer an earlier date, about 1499. According to reliable documents, she is the eldest of three Boleyn children. Evidence shows that the descendants of the Boleyn family think that Mary is the oldest of the three children; 1597, her grandson, Lord Hanston, was awarded the title of Earl of Aumund on the grounds that he was the lawful heir of the Boleyn family. According to the strict rules of aristocratic inheritance, if there is no surviving male heir, the title will be inherited by the eldest daughter. If Anne is a sister, this title belongs to her daughter, that is, Elizabeth I, and Elizabeth I never got this title, which shows that Anne is not the eldest daughter.

Mary was once thought to be with Princess Margaret Of Austria (German: Margaret E.von &; OumlSterreich) and began to receive education, but now it is obvious that this is Mary's sister Anne. Mary spent most of her childhood in England.

Mary was sent abroad sometime after 15 14, when she was between 12 and 15 years old. Her father found her a maid's job with Princess mary tudor, the king's sister. She went to Paris and married French king Louis XII of France (French: Louis XII of France). A few weeks after arriving in Paris, many British maids were ordered to leave, but mary boleyn was allowed to stay, probably because of her father, the new British ambassador. Even after Princess mary tudor left France on1515 65438+1kloc-0/,mary boleyn remained in the court of the new French king Francois I and queen Claude de France. Mary and her sister Anne came to live in Paris because of her father Sir Thomas. Anne studied in Holland before. Mary is considered to have participated in many events, including Francois I. Some historians think that her infidelity has been exaggerated. These rumors led her to be removed from office and sent back to England.

Mary was sent back to England on 15 19. In the last ten years of the marriage between Queen Catherine of Aragon and Henry VIII, she was assigned a job as a maid beside the Queen. One year after returning to England, Mary married Sir william carey on February 4th, 2000 1520. He was a courtier with a rich family and prominent family background. Henry VIII was a distinguished guest at the wedding. At this time, Henry VIII and Mary had an affair, although the time was unclear. These things have not been made public. Mary has never enjoyed the life of a king's mistress with fame, wealth and power as she sometimes does in French courts and other countries. It is said that this relationship ended before Mary's son Henry Carey was born.

Some time after the incident, it was rumored that one or both of Mary's children were born to the king. A witness noticed that Mary's son Henry Kerry was very similar to Henry VIII. John hales hales, a vicar in Lovas, talked about meeting a "young master Carey", who many monks thought was the illegitimate child of the king. There is no other contemporary evidence to support that the king is Henry's biological father.

Catherine of Aragon, the first wife of Henry VIII, was previously married to Henry VIII's younger brother, the Prince of Wales. Henry VIII declared his marriage with Catherine invalid on this ground, because her marriage with Arthur (presumably having sex) made Henry VIII and Catherine have formed an uncle relationship before. When anne boleyn became the mistress of Henry VIII, a similar relationship between Henry VIII and Anne's sister was formed. According to the regulations of the church, because Mary is Henry VIII's mistress, Henry VIII's marriage with Mary's sister is as illegal as his marriage with Catherine of Aragon. If Henry VIII realized this, he wouldn't let such obstacles stop his marriage with Anne. Mary's sister anne boleyn returned to England on 1522 and gained great prestige in the court. The two sisters are obviously not very close. Annie has different social circles.

Although it is said that Mary is more attractive than her sister, Anne seems to be more ambitious. When the king was interested in her, Anne refused to be his mistress. She was smart and didn't have sex with him because she was afraid that the king would lose interest afterwards. 1in the middle of 527, Henry VIII decided to marry Anne. This strengthened his motivation to seek the annulment of his marriage with Catherine of Aragon.

A year later, when Mary's husband died of sweating fever, Henry VIII awarded the custody of her nephew Henry Carey to anne boleyn. Mary's husband left her huge debts. She arranged for Henry Carey to be educated in the West Church and become a respected monk. Mary's father has no intention of helping her. Anne tried to make sure that Mary could get a meager pension of 100 every year. 1523 When Anne went to Calais for a state visit with Henry VIII, Mary was one of Anne's companions. Anne was crowned Queen of England on June 1533, and gave birth to her first daughter (later Queen Elizabeth I) in autumn 2008. 1534, Mary married william stafford in secret. Because Stafford was a commoner with no status and low income, most historians think that their marriage was out of love. When their marriage was discovered, Mary's family denied that she had married someone lower than herself, and Mary was expelled from Queen Anne's court.

Mary's financial situation became very bad, because she had to ask thomas Cromwell, the king's adviser, to intercede with the king for her. But the king still doesn't care about her plight. So Mary asked Cromwell to intercede with her father, uncle and brother, but it didn't work. Surprisingly, Anne was the first to give her a break. She gave Mary a gorgeous gold cup and some money, but still refused to take her back to the court. From 1534 to 1536, Anne was executed, and the two sisters never met again. This partial reconciliation became the most intimate performance of the two sisters.

From 1534 to 1536 in May 19, it is difficult to trace back Mary's life. She never visited his mother, nor did her sister when she was later detained in the Tower of London. Her brother George was accused of treason and executed. She didn't try to visit him. There is no evidence that she wrote to them. Like their uncle Thomas Howard, the third duke of Norfolk, she may have been smart enough to avoid contact with her lost relatives after careful consideration.

After being deported from Rockford, Essex, Mary and her husband are still living in retirement. After Anne was executed, their mother retired from the court and died a year later. Sir Thomas died the following year. After her parents died, Mary inherited part of the Boleyn family's property in Essex. She may spend the rest of her life in obscurity with her second husband. She died in July 1543, just over 40 years old. Even then, she was a little young.
