Individual:
Titles: Proclaimed Queen of England,
Crowned:
Ruled: 10 July 1553. Deposed 19 July 1553.
Jane Grey was the innocent victim of the schemes of her ambitious and recent father-in-law to continue the Protestant faith in England after the death of Edward VI in preference to the Catholic princess Mary (I). Jane was the granddaughter of Mary, the sister of Henry VIII, and under the latter's will; Mary's children had right of succession only after the deaths of his own children and their heirs. Edward VI signed an amendment to his father's will only a few weeks before his own death which set aside his sisters' claims to the throne and nominated Jane. Just a month earlier John Dudley, duke of Northumberland, who had assumed the role (if not the title) of protector of the realm during Edward's minority, had arranged the marriage of his son Guilford to Jane. Jane did not particularly like Guilford, although their subsequent adversity drew them together.
Jane was formally offered the crown in accordance with Edward VI's wishes, and declared queen, against her own better judgment, by the Council on 9 July 1553. Jane did not want to be queen of England, but when she accepted the crown, she did so recognizing it would help the Protestant reform. She was publicly proclaimed queen the following day. She was an extremely well educated and well mannered child who in other circumstances would have made an excellent queen consort. She was obdurate that her husband would not be jointly proclaimed king. The nobility were affronted by Northumberland's scheme. There was also overwhelming public support for Mary. Jane retained the title of queen for just nine days. Northumberland's army was defeated, and he was arrested and beheaded. Jane and her husband were also arrested and imprisoned in the Tower. Mary was prepared to be lenient with them, recognizing their unfortunate position, but Jane's fate was sealed when her father, Henry Grey, duke of Suffolk, became involved in Sir Thomas Wyatt's rebellion against Mary. Jane refused to recant her Protestantism and on 12 February 1554 she was executed, having been found guilty of treason.
