Francis Valois & Mary Stuart | Facts 

I wish he could have lived longer and they could have had a long married life together with many children. There is no doubt that European history would have been different!

The fact that they were married at the Cathedral of Notre Dame and now it has almost burned down, I don't know, it just makes me emotional.

Mary and Francis truly loved each other. I wish he never died. She would have never left France and of course never been beheaded

I read a book of mary's life and francis not only adored her but he was very much in love with her! She was with him every day till he passed and just before he did he testified to her virtues and his love for her that she was perfect in every way! When he died mary was so heartbroken that she took leave for 3 months in one chateau away from court and she wrote poems about her late husband.. She was adored by the French such poise and beauty! After she left for Scotland King Charles the brother of francis had a portrait of her and often he said that this brother had an angel for a wife and she shouldn't have left!! Actually the love that francis and mary had was much stronger that the one in the show!! They were young in love and inseparable

They would be great king and queen if he lived. And Mary's life wouldn't be so tragic.

After the death of Francis II, Mary customarily wore black to symbolise the loss of her husband and the loss of her French crown.

I watched Reign over and over again and I cried over and over again. It broke my heart every time it comes to the end of Francis. Toby Regbo and Adelaide Kane had a very good chemistry as Mary and Francis. I wish they will have another tv series .

on a disturbing note it is said Mary was not beheaded with a single strike. The first blow missed her neck and struck the back of her head. The second blow severed the neck, except for a small bit of sinew, which the executioner cut through using the axe. Afterward, he held her head aloft and declared, "God save the Queen." At that moment, the auburn tresses in his hand turned out to be a wig and the head fell to the ground, revealing that Mary had very short, grey hair.A small dog owned by the queen, a Skye Terrier, is said to have been hiding among her skirts, unseen by the spectators. Following the beheading, it refused to be parted from its owner's body and was covered in her blood, until it was forcibly taken away and washed.

I really miss watching this series.

also it was true to history that Catherine de medici was indeed involved in some way to the occult, and Nostradamus really did play a part in her affairs. the medicis also funded the renaissance period in italy and her family name commissioning most of the architecture and the arts. that would explain her vanity and pomp in the show. and she had 10 kids my god.

God i love history and she’s one of the historical figures i adore soo much 😫 i hated how she was executed . Ugh

lol its 2019 and im still watching this, i really wish that francis didn't die on the show even though it wouldn't be historically correct i dont care I NEED MY BABIES BACK

the history between them was one of the reason I started loving France so much, and the fact that they were married at Notre Dame... Mary is such a string person she’s seriously the only queen that I’ve ever been interest in, even at this year, 2019, many people still love her. that couple were angels, they deserved better:((((.

I don't understand why you don't have like...a million subscribers, your work is perfect!

I love this video. It gives Francis and Mary a stronger bond.

It's nice to know that they loved each other so much and it wasn't a marriage of convince. I wish they would of grew old together and had many heirs 💗

COMPLETELY STUNNING ITS GORGEOUS

I absolutely love this! Reign was awesome, and I was very disappointed how the last season ended. It just felt rushed to me. Like they didn't take their time. Anyways, back to your video. I love how informative you are. I started becoming interested in Medieval a few yrs ago when I started watching The Tudors. You've informed us about a lot of stuff about Mary and Francis, and I love that you comment in return. Not too many RU-vidists comment in return. Thank You for that, and thank you for making this. I will be keeping an eye out for other videos of yours. :)

I love History and the story of Francis and Mary is beautiful yet sad how their lives ended. I to wish they had lived long lives and had many children.

Thank you, this was really instructive, and they married in Notre Dame, I didn't know that ! Proud to be French haha :P

Reign is was wonderful, Loved every second of it, I really wished they werent sick and that they had lived. Mary and Francis were awesome. Gonna try to find it Reign to re watch everything.

Here was a poem Mary Wrote for Francis. Just reading it you could see how much Mary Loved Francis. It’s Really sad In my sad, quiet song, A melancholy air, I shall look deep and long At loss beyond compare, And with bitter tears, I'll pass my best years. Have the harsh fates ere now Let such a grief be felt, Has a more cruel blow Been by Dame Fortune dealt Than, O my heart and eyes! I see where his bier lies? In my springtime's gladness And flower of my young heart, I feel the deepest sadness Of the most grievous hurt. Nothing now my heart can fire But regret and desire. He who was my dearest Already is my plight The day that shone the clearest For me is darkest night There's nothing now so fine That I need make it mine. Deep in my eyes and heart A portrait has its place Which shows the world my hurt In the pallor of my face. Pale as when violets fade True love's becoming shade. In my unwonted pain I can no more be still, Rising time and again To drive away my ill. All things good and bad Have lost the taste they had. And thus I always stay Whether in wood or meadow, Whether at dawn of day Or at the evening shadow. My heart feels ceaselessly Grief for his loss to me. Sometimes in such a place His image comes to me. The sweet smile on his face Up in a cloud I see. Then sudden in the mere I see his funeral bier. When I lie quietly Sleeping upon my couch, I hear him speak to me And I can feel his touch. In my duties each day He is near me alway. Nothing seems fine to me Unless he is therein. My heart will not agree Unless he is within. I lack all perfection In my cruel dejection I shall cease my song now, My sad lament shall end. Whose burden aye shall show True love can not pretend And, though we are apart, Grows no less in my heart.

It’s adorable how they loved each other in real life 🥺😓

This video made me cry so much it’s beautiful 😭😭😭 I love frary ❤️❤️❤️

This is wonderful! These videos are always teaching me so much more I never knew about Mary or Francis! 😋 Fantastic edits as well, Reign is still missed and your videos help keep their story alive! 💙

This is a masterpiece,I did't know thoose things and you edited with frary's moment,I adore your videos 😍

I miss francis... i dream about him everynight that im his daughter idk why and their line would go on, i cried when he died... we love you francis

Love it like always s2 I'm obssessed with Mary's history

I love Queen Mary of Scots ❤️❤️❤️ she's my favorite queen!!!! So smart and beautiful inside and out. I loved the series. It had just the saddest then loveliest ending. I kinda wish there was more though but I understand there's an ending to her history timeline

I love your videos! Especially the 'Facts' ones! Please do more!

if Francis didn't die early, imagine how things would be different

i'm dying... you're so talented

My fiance died in 2005, losing our unborn daughter almost 4 months later. I'm single since his death, I love him so much... I can't move on, I hope he's waiting like Francis did for Mary, this made me cry even more... The more I read about Elisabeth, the more I dislike her - and the poor dog... Mary deserved happiness, not this... Francis, Mary, I hope you are happy...

What a beautiful video! Loved the music that you chose to go with it.

no matter how many times i watch reign and reign edits i still sob

This is literally the best thing I have ever seeeeeeen!!!!!!!!!!!!

This broke my heart😭💔

fishingfrarys ! You facts , edits and presentations are wonderful . I've read Antonia Fraser's book . But couldn't this selections be a little longer, say an hour or so . That would have been still more wonderful .

Thanks . I'll keenly await your next , hopefully, equally wonderful presentation.

I'm crying all over again

Good God! I don't know where to Start! Wonderful! Beautiful!

this is soooooo good!

So good 💓

perfect❤

Loved this video mary queen of Scots wonderfull queen gifted the grayfriers monistry lands to dundee in 1564 for a burial ground there re over 140000 people including many of my ancestors last used about 1860? Locals call it the houff very nice place to visit as is Notre dame cathedral 🙏🙏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💜💙

Frary forever 💗

Last night I finished the show and cried so much

I love your facts videos

suddenly i love history

great video

Lovely vídeo

Great FACTS!❤️

Did you know that those gastric troubles were actually porphyria? She passed it on to her son, and it carried down the line to possibly the royal family today.

I am curious to what would have happened if Francis actually survived

I love this video. Personally I would cringe watching Reign so eventually I stopped. But having scenes of them in the background with actual facts makes it better for me. Plus I love the music 😊

Yes this facts are correcst, Mary was two year older than F,rancis, she lived till 47 when she was decapitated?? she Wed 3 times & only had one son, called James Who was adopted by Elizabetf & become, King James 1, at Elizabeth death. I think Mary spend 18 or 20 years in Prison???? The series was beautiful just like we would have love them to be, it was so romantic, except when Fracis died??? I would not have like to live in thoses days, looking over your shoulders constantly??? but like I say before, when you look, the English Royal Family, they have not changed much at all??????

I love reign ❤️

Im still here in 2021

It's history, people don't like to see this, especially my mother. Thank Mary Stuart

2:09 It's not Frary related but I just realized that during that particular scene, I watched the wedding(Elisabeth and Phillip II) of the king who's name was use to name our country for the reason of "Honoring him" due to their successful colonization of our land, and I don't know what to feel as much as I wanted to hate them for making our country suffer I can't do that since I'm a descendant of Spaniards as well.

and if anyone's interested on the life of mary's son, well, he during his reign had a strong belief for the occult too and even incited the massive witch hunt that happened in history and also published his own book about the occult and witches in general. now that is very interesting. scotland itself is known for a lot of happenings related to the occult. it all so very interesting. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gB2DeAzCBi4.html the link to the video that talks all about it.

Why do I now feel like crying?

With your wonderful knowledge of history can we expect something on ancient and medieval Irish history on the lines of 'Reign vs. History' narrated in the same gripping style?

One time I had a dream of Francis. 😭😩

Really good video and what is the book? 💖

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭my heart was crushed td on Netflix

It’s kinda shocking the notre dame burnt down this year

Mary and Francis really love each other but he died shortly 😥😥

Wow Mary and Francis married in 24 April….the next day is my birthday =)

it’s crazy that like every royal is related somehow

what's the book's name you read? and btw... AMAZING video!!✨

I love it

Today is the 25 April....

In fact they're were just a teenager at the time they were married?

I just watched 2 documentaries on youtube that say the opposite of many things said here. I will continu to seek morw information on Mary Queen of Scots. I feel many of thesr young Queens had it worse than young kings, like Lady Jane Grey.

Why did Francis die at such a young age

😢😢😢😢

Valois is a french word of Valerian.

I'm just wandering my surname's meaning, and I accidentally found this video 😳

Does anyone know that Mary spells her name Marie

ok wait I’m confused , frary is my endgame ofc but they were related?😳

Where did u read this???

Honestly Mary should’ve stayed in France I imagine what would it had been if she had stayed 😔

the only thing is using a gorgeous brunette as Mary is not accurate.. She was red haired.

It's Francois not Francis

she should have run away to france instead of England but after the death of francis the queen Catherine de medicis did not like her.there would be big trouble after between the guise and the valois with her cousin the duke of guise assassinated and the guise in turn assassinating henry 111 of france thus ending the valois dynasty

So did Francis really had a bastared son, Or was that made up in the series?

So stupid...look for a real historical channel. No one looked like a movie star in the Middle Ages...they hardly washed and they certainly didn't wear clothes like these. Ridiculous

The poor boy only died of an ear infection! How sad! I wish I could go back in time to give him medicine ! ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹
