Throwing all the rules of royal babies out the window
Kelda Margaret
I know Margaret Beaufort was never queen but her son was king thanks to his mother. Margaret was one tough lady though, very clever and politically astute she always did what was best for her son and herself from an early age. Margaret found herself a pregnant widow at just 13 and after giving birth decided for herself who her second husband would be rather than her brother in law who was then her legal guardian picking for her. When years later the king found out Margaret was plotting against him as she was “only a woman” he sent her back to husband so he would make her behave. As if a man could do that but it allowed Margaret to keep plotting for the future.
