=Who'll be the new Queen?=

By Elisabeth Garstad.

Who is it going to be?


King Edward VI.

Some small facts :

- When Edward grew older, he and his half sister, Elizabeth, became close. They lived in separate households, but they wrote to each other often.
===- As Elizabeth and King Edward VI grew up, their Protestant views put them at odds with Mary, who never swayed from her devout Catholicism. According to Henry's will, if Edward died without heirs he would be succeeded by Mary. If Mary died without heirs, Elizabeth would become queen.===

- Mary Tudor is King Edward VI half sister and she is in fact the successor, but by his law it’s Jane who is the successor.
===- Jane Grey was born only two days before Edward and she may have been his friend in childhood. Many people expected Edward to marry Jane his cousin, also her parents, but Edward wanted to marry Mary, Queen of Scots, or some other foreign princess.===

===- When Jane was nine, her parents sent her to live with Henry VIII's widow, Katherine Parr, and Katherine's new husband, Thomas Seymour. Jane was happy with the Seymours, but Katherine soon died and Thomas Seymour was arrested, forcing Jane to return to her parents.===

- Lord Guilford Dudley and Jane Grey got married 15 of May in 1553, and they still are.
===When it became clear that Edward’s life will be a short one, the Device to Alter the Succession is drafted to exclude his two half sisters, the devout Catholic Mary and moderate Protestant Elizabeth, from the line of succession to the throne to put Lady Jane Grey, his solidly Protestant cousin, great-granddaughter of Henry VII, can maybe be the next in the line to succeed the king.===
