Mary, you married the wrong Philip! Philip of Spain is nothing but a jerk, Duke Philip of Bavaria is a much better choice for you! But alas, your cruel bastard of a father had to send him away and make you miserable. Bravo Henry, bravo.

This is so sad! And poor Mary had such a harsh unfair life AND death. People portray her as the mean ugly sister. This is one of the only times I see Mary as more of a normal girl than a mean cruel cold bitch

@TheMusicEclipse Well it wasn't her decision, it was forced on.

[Tonganpride1000]

@aglistningvale I really do agree with you. She was lovely and still very young at the time. If Duke Philip married her, her future could've been so different. I also agree with you on people portraying Princess Mary so harshly. She was having problems too, you know whereas her father falling in love with another woman. I really do wish they could've married. Ah, alas, that was many, many years ago.

@Tonganpride1000 From eveything I've read, I believe she was. Mary was starving for love; she'd been separated from her mother for three years when Queen Katherine died, the father that had adored her had cast her aside for years until Jane Seymour became Queen. Princess Mary had been reduced to the status of bastard & now titled "the Lady Mary." She might still have been in the "falling in love" stages when Duke Philip was sent away, but I do believe she was quite devastated when he left.

@aglistningvale but was she ever in love with him? Or was it just a dance she was forced to "try out" if you know what i mean... she was already getting arranged for marrige at age 6.

@GenieJackman Oh, my I so agree with you. What a shame they were separated. I left a longer comment on the page, but did you know, Philip never married anyone? True Story.

@Tonganpride1000 I'm not sure if anyone ever replied to you, but yes the story of Mary Tudor and Philip of Barvaria is true. See my comment on this video.

I am so glad that someone finally portrayed Princess Mary as such a lovely young woman. So often she is portrayed so harshly, whereas all contemporary accounts of her was that she was a beautiful child and a beautiful young woman. Philip tried so hard to win her hand, even after he was sent away, he still continued to petition Henry to come to England, continued to hope to marry her. Proof of Philip's love for Mary? He never married.
