What happens when a Tudor princess defies royal duty, breaks all the rules, and marries for love? Scandal, outrage, and the fury of two kings! On this day in Tudor history, 14th January 1515, Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk, was sent to France on a mission to bring the recently widowed Mary Tudor, Queen of France, back to England. But instead of following orders, the king’s best friend and favourite sister had a secret plan—a scandalous marriage that rocked two thrones. Mary Tudor had been forced into a political marriage with a king old enough to be her grandfather. When he died, she seized her chance to follow her heart. But her choice—Charles Brandon—could’ve cost them everything. The new King of France, Francis I, was furious. Henry VIII, her brother, was enraged. Brandon’s life hung in the balance… until Mary struck a deal that cost her dearly. Despite the scandal, their marriage became one of the few genuinely happy royal marriages in Tudor history. But it came at a price. Would you risk everything to marry for love in Tudor times?

On this day in Tudor history, 4th March 1590, Christopher Bales met a brutal and unjust end on the streets of London. His crime? Simply being a Catholic priest. Under Elizabeth I’s strict anti-Catholic laws, his faith was seen as treason—and his punishment was death. But who was Christopher Bales? And why was England so determined to silence men like him? In this gripping tale of faith, persecution, and execution, I uncover the tragic story of a man who refused to betray his beliefs, even under the cruel hands of the infamous priest-hunter Richard Topcliffe. Bales’ execution, alongside those who harboured him, highlights the dangerous reality for Catholics in Elizabethan England. Was he truly a threat to the state, or was he a martyr for his faith? Let me know your thoughts in the comments. #TudorHistory #OnThisDay #ChristopherBales #ElizabethanEngland #ReligiousPersecution #CatholicMartyrs #HistoryLover #BritishHistory #DarkHistory…
Margaret Tudor’s Third Marriage. On this day in Tudor history, 3rd March 1528, Margaret Tudor—sister of Henry VIII and widow of James IV of Scotland—tied the knot for the third time.

She fought for freedom from her unfaithful second husband (despite Henry VIII’s objections—oh, the irony!). And when she finally won her annulment, she wasted no time in marrying Henry Stewart, a charming courtier. But had she learned from the past? Well… let’s just say this new husband had more in common with her last one than she hoped. Betrayal, political intrigue, and royal defiance—Margaret’s love life was anything but simple!
