Mary I is known throughout History as 'Bloody Mary,' for her brutal persecution of Protestants of which she had over 200 burned at the stake for refusing to convert to Catholicism. She's known as a rather violent ruler who struck fear into her population, and through these public execution she scared the people of England greatly. History hasn't been kind to Mary with regards to her reputation, however she suffered a great deal throughout her life aswell.
Mary I became Queen in 1553, but during the Tudor period and the reign of her father Henry VIII and brother Edward VI, she suffered a great deal with ill-health. She had conditions when she were younger that made her incredibly poorly, and it was thought at times that she would pass away due to how ill she was. She suffered with fevers and swellings, and many other health problems.
Like most Kings or Queens of England, the quest for an heir or a son to pass the throne onto was one of the most important things to Mary. She married Phillip II of Spain in this quest for a child, but it was during this that her health would take a decline. Mary claimed to be pregnant, and displayed the signs of pregnancy with swellings of her stomach however she had a phantom pregnancy. This happened a number of times, and it's thought that these episodes as well as the depression caused by her condition quickened her death.
So Bloody Mary herself suffered a great deal throughout her life. Join us today as we look at 'The TRAGIC Death Of BLOODY Mary I.'

Her symptoms sound alot like Endometriosis, a newer known of condition that often passes from mother to daughter. Cysts in the womb, swollen stomach 'endo belly', sickness. And that could also explain how Catherine of Aragon, her mother had so many miscarraiges as is pretty common for people with Endometriosis

Nah, not at all. Endometriosis doesn't allow fertility. People don't get pregnant that easy if it's endometriosis. Elizabeth Rivers (Mary's great grandmother) Richard of Yorks wife, put a curse on the Tudors that would kill the boys and end their line, for Henry the 6th, Lady Margaret and her son Henry the 7th killing her brothers, the York boys and rightful heirs to the throne (see war of the roses) and forcing her daughter Elizabeth of York to marry Henry the 7th. It's all well documented the Rivers women (going farther back to Jaquetta Rivers, Queen Elizabeth & Mary's great great grandmother) taught The River/York women dark magic. It's no coincidence that after the curse was placed out of revenge, Elizabeth of Yorks son Arthur died, she died giving birth to her final child by Henry the 7th, which was a boy. Catherine of Aragorn had miscarried about 4 boys of Henry the 8th. We all know the story of how that turned out and Queen Elizabeth the 1st became Queen eventually. There's too many women besides Mary, and too much "coincidence" for it to be that. That entire Tudor dynasty was taken out in 2 generations. Nothing like that in history has happened like that. The Tudors were evil. They murdered children. It's definitely karma.

Ok I found the numbers.(these are deaths based solely off religion, and not if the person was planning an assassination attempt.) Mary killed 280 Protestants in 5 years due to their beliefs. Elizabeth killed 193 Catholics in 45 years and 6 puritans. Edward killed 2 Ana Baptists Henry burnt I think 81. These numbers don’t count for people killed in rebellions like Wyatts Rebellion (Mary) or the Pilgrimage of Grace To give Mary a change, she believed that by burning these heretics she was saving their souls so...

With the country divided in their religious beliefs, LJG couldn’t have ignored the very real risk of catholic support for Mary gathering enough power to over throw LJG. Elizabeth executed Mary Queen of Scots for the exact same reason & is hardly ever referred to a monster for it & MQOS was a former anointed Queen!

Protestants had declared the young child Mary to be illegitimate, she was subjected to such abuses and saw many innocent catholics brutally executed ( just read about Saint John Houghton) just because they refused to accept Henry's illegal divorce of his lawful wife.

I couldn’t agree more. Catherine of Aragon was a good wife & Queen & a devout catholic & so was Henry until it didn’t suit his circumstances. Henry didn’t care about the religious side of it, at all! Like you say, he just wanted a divorce, Anne Boleyn & a male heir. Being head of the English church along with all the monasteries gold was nothing but a nice wee bonus. He never actually stopped being catholic. He humiliated her mother, kept them separated & bastardised Mary, how could she not have associated the Protestant religion with all these negative things in her life. I mean, Henry threw a great feast & celebrations when Catherine died & didn’t even give her a queens funeral or burial. Her mother & herself remained as dignified as possible & I believe a big part of that was through their faith. Catherine of Aragon was the jewel in the Spanish crown & probably the most sought after princess in Europe at that time, such a shame. I doesn’t excuse Mary’s treatment of Protestants but it definitely makes you think about why she felt so strongly about it. Thomas more was another one who lost his head for not recognising Henry as head of the church.

When Edward was ruling his then protestant country she opposed him by visiting catholic mass (even if just in private). In the end she did the same as her poor people did when she became Queen.

@KRISTIANITY_ 3 года назад

She was also delirious in her final hours, and she kept seeing and talking about little children calling her from heaven. Psychologically, you can see through her most sincere motives in life - she might have been a religious fanatic, she might have been a monarch, but what she wanted most was to be a mom, and to be able to give to her child all that motherly love and care that she was so tragically deprived of when she was a child herself. We can talk about the suffering she caused and the errors she made, but she would never have become 'bloody Mary', had it not been for her horrible parents. Henry VIII was a psychopathic narcissist, who would destroy his own kin in the name of power, and Catherine of Aragon was a stubborn bitch who preferred to scar her child for life, rather than lose her title and the right of succession.

@KRISTIANITY_ 3 года назад

@@LelaMi79 I think Mary can be blamed only for being so weak as to use her grief and depression as a fuel for fanaticism. Her faith was like her safe space. If she had nothing else, at least she had her god, and she would never fail him. This is perfectly natural - people in all kinds of peril, clinging to whatever ideal they love most, and excelling in it, focusing their last effort and remaining ambition into it, in order to remain sane and survive their bout of unhappiness. Nowadays we see it, for example, in people investing everything in their children, or pursuing some career or achievement, or creating art. Mary didn't do these things, instead she excelled in burning people at the stake - because she was a weaker character, who wasn't able to see past her religious bias, and realize, as an early modern monarch should have, that personal belief should never be a queen's reason to inflict pain and death upon her subjects. This is where Mary failed, and where she can be blamed, both by our modern standards, and by the standards of her own time. Elizabeth was strong enough to realize this, hence she didn't repeat it, or at least did so covertly.

Mary was the last catholic monarch of England, which means the history of her reign was written by all protestants. She was no better or worse than the other kings and queens of that era. Ask yourself who was more deserving of the "bloody" moniker - Mary, or her father, Henry VIII? Also, John Foxe was in exile on the continent during Mary's reign. He never saw any of the executions he talks about in his book. It's little more than propaganda.

Let's just remember that this was the penalty at the time for what was regarded as heresy. Mary was advised by her council and parliament had re-enacted the heresy laws. Mary did not act on her own.

I always thought she had a strange resemblance with today's Princess Anne, the Princess Royal. The greatest influence in Mary's life was her mother who was deeply obsessed with religion, and sin. Her father hardly knew her because being a royal she would have her own court and her own circle of servants and advisors quite separate from that of her parents. However, mother and daughter became inseparable which wasn't the done thing and Henry had to put his foot down and split them up. Especially, as Henry's new love, Ann Boleyn and Princess Mary disliked each other on first meeting. Chalk and Cheese.
