    Mary was innocent in Babington plot. Elizabeth imprisoned her for half her life and then brutally executed her. Never even met her even once, and Mary came to England for family support, for help to win back her Scottish throne. She never imagined Elizabeth would kill her. May her soul rest in peace.

      No she wasn’t. And hm I wonder why Elizabeth imprisoned her? Maybe because Mary wouldn’t shut up about being the rightful queen of England? Also Mary could’ve went anywhere else but she chose Elizabeth.

      Really? Because the vast swathe of the citizens of both countries would have dreaded her as Queen.

      @@en-bn1vn did you even study her reign? She forced people to become protestant and persecutred catholics. Thats one of the reasons whyt he gun powder plot started. Catholic priests had to go into hiding and she killed many catholic nobles and murdered many priests and children. Actually look her reign up, thers so much protestant propoganda but it was only a golden age for the rich and protestant. She killed her own cousin due to fear and jealousy and other cousins because they had claims to the crown. She was crafty, a master liar which made her a good politician and murdered when it suited her. The only true and noble queen was Mary Queen of Scotland who was ahead of her time and tolerated both faiths. Elizabeth was also NOT a virgin, she had a long affair with dudley and possibly secret children. She succeeded due to lies, thievery, murder and a loyal council that was hell bent on making England protestant.

    I read a bit about her execution and it kinda seemed like she was looking forward to it
    It was probably sort of like a relief or release after being imprisoned for so many years
    She even made jokes on the scaffold about how she never imagined undressing in front of an audience
    She must’ve been a bit scared, sure (I mean who wouldn’t be if they knew they were gonna be beheaded) but I think at the end of the day, she was looking forward to it

    Bothwell totally changed the direction of Mary’s life with a very devious plan
    which worked perfectly but Mary also made some really wrong moves which
    ultimately determined her very sad life.
    In truth there was no chance of Mary ever achieving her goal and with hindsight of course
    should have never left France.
    RIP Mary.

      @@love_mandyxo changed her mind? Seriously? I can't believe that, she did that all the time. You can't just sign the death warrant of your own cousin and than change your mind and of course it was just a coincidence that it was too late. Actually in my opinion it wasn't Elizabeth's decision to make, because Mary was not her subject, she had no right to decide when to kill her. Let's just admit that Mary was too powerful WOMAN, she was queen of Scotland since she was six days old, queen of France (for only a year but still a queen) and rightful queen of England, and they couldn't let women to take so much under her control.
