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?
