The salient point from Elizabeth's perspective, however, was that Northumberland's attitude towards her was significantly different from that of Somerset. Under the Protector, the allowance allotted to Elizabeth by her father had often been paid irregularly and, frequently, not in full; there was no such delay from Northumberland. By the same token, the King's uncle had never particularly encouraged Elizabeth to visit her brother, whereas Northumberland had no problem with her doing so and always paid reverence to her.

Doing my bit getting those viewer numbers up rewatching becoming Elizabeth on channel 4

And I just realised Dudley pushing Gardiner down the stairs is made better (for lack of a better word lol) by the fact that historically John had slapped him at a council meeting late in Henry’s reign. so it’s like that push down the steps was years of irritation in the making

#no king Henry to step in this time #sorry Stephen #he really didn’t get along with those in favour very often did he?#and there aren’t many people willing to bat for him now either #altho he did make it through without being either beheaded or burned. so. he’s one of the rare court survivors against seemingly all odds #becoming elizabeth #john dudley #historical drama #Tudor history #Stephen gardiner #Tudor

Hi! I love your posts about Mary I's successful rebellion to seize the throne. You mentioned that there are a lot of inaccuracies in how historians talk about the rebellion, like the myth that Mary was almost tricked into coming to court. Could you talk about more inaccuracies, and generally, more about the rebellion?

So, I've just screenshotted a random book to show the standard myth of Mary in 1553.

It boils down to -

A - Mary didn't know about the coup against her

B - Mary was at Hoddesdon, in the process of visiting Edward when she did find out

But this narrative can be destroyed - by a letter from John Dudley himself! The following document is catalogued as 1551, but the events referenced clearly refer to 1553.

Jon Dudley writes to William Cecil -

After stating she might bring disorder and unquiet to the realm, he writes

So with this information let's look at the previous points.

A. Mary didn't know about the coup against her

She clearly knew something about the coup.

Dudley and the Privy Council know her servants have been having private conversations with the Emperor’s ambassador in the middle of the night.

This is confirmed as being true by a Spanish source in July stating “Mr. Rouster [Robert Rochester] who has come several times in secret to the ambassador during these troubles.”

Why all the secrecy if Mary & co believed Dudley and the Privy Council were going to declare her queen?

An Italian in London that met the ambassadors wrote in late July that Mary “made all her preparations in secret, and succeeded in lulling the Duke to such good effect that he really believed her to be so good and simple that he would be able to seize her person whenever he might care to do so.”

B. Mary was at Hoddesdon, in the process of visiting Edward when she did find out

There is no contemporary evidence that Mary even left Hunsdon before fleeing, never mind getting as far as Hoddesdon. The only source of her being summoned to court mentions it as a rumour on the 15th June “It is thought the Princess may also be summoned with the pretext of a visit to her brother.”

In his letter, Dudley implies they thought it likely Mary was coming to see Edward, but there’s no mention of them summoning her, or of either party arranging a visit.

Other debunked myths

. No evidence Mary fled in a serving maid disguise.

.No evidence Nicholas Throckmorton was the one to inform Mary of her brother’s death (via a goldsmith) except his own words at his own trial when trying to save his life.

Overall, I think historians just tend to gloss over her actions in the summer of 1553 and simplify it as common people flocked to her banner = she won.

Which is true, but Mary wasn’t just doing nothing! She was writing letters and proclamations, sending people out to convince their family and friends to support her, holding sons hostage to get their father’s support, etc. There was a lot of stuff happening behind the scenes that unfortunately, because we don’t have loads of information, are ignored.

— You are neither the rightful Protector nor the king nor my father. You remember my father? — Vaguely. — I saw a grown man hide from him once, behind a curtain. I even saw you on occasion duck and cower.
