Is that the life that waits for me for being the king's son?

What sin have I committed that God punishes me in such a cruel way? I swore! I swore as a young girl that I would not suffer the torments of love and now... May God never want it that you love someone who cannot requite.

ÁNGELA CREMONTE as MARY I OF ENGLAND (Carlos Rey Emperador)

[athousandtales]

“Four days after Katherine’s death, Lady Shelton went to Mary and “most unceremoniously without the least preparation” told her that her mother was dead. That evening Mary requested that Katherine’s physician and apothecary be allowed to visit her so she might hear of her mother’s final hours and of the manner of her death. As Charles told Isabella, his wife, Mary was “inconsolable at the loss she has sustained, especially when she thinks of her father’s past behaviour towards herself, and the little favour she can expect for the future.” It was feared she would “die of grief”.”

- Are you out of your mind? No, Isabella. I am not going to permit it. Not in your state. - I am daughter and granddaughter of kings.

“You are worthy grandson of your grandfather Ferdinand.”

In 1518 Germaine gave birth to a daughter. (...) From the birth of the little girl, as if both were aware of having gone too far, the romantic relationship between Charles and Germaine ended. In 1519, perhaps to silence the slanderes, Charles give Germaine de Foix in marriage to Marquis of Brandenburg and assigned them the city of Valencia, granting her the position of vice-queen and lieutenant of the Levantine kingdom. - María Pilar Queralt del Hierro, Reinas en la sombra.
