Henry, Margaret's brother, became Henry VIII when his brother Arthur and his father died. He became infamous for having six wives, two of which he had beheaded. His second wife, Anne Boleyn, and he had Elizabeth I together.

No. Mary, Queen of Scots, was the daughter of Elizabeth I's first cousin.
They were first cousins once removed (Mary Queen of Scots was Henry VIII's grand niece).
Mary Queen of Scots was Elizabeth I's cousin.
Elizabeth.
Well Elizabeth I and Mary,Queen of Scots were both descended from HenryVII of England the first Tudor monarch. Elizabeth was a grandaughter of Henry VII through her father Henry VIII. Mary was a great-grandaughter of Henry VII through his daughter Margaret Tudor who married James IV of Scotland. This in fact makes Mary and Elizabeth first cousins once removed.
Queen Elizabeth the first ordered the execution of Mary Queen of Scots. Mary was a Catholic and Elizabeth was protestant. Mary was a threat to Elizabeth for that reason and also because she was too close to the throne. (this answer can be massively expanded on)
Elizabeth I of England and Mary, Queen of Scots were cousins.
The children of her parents' siblings! Haha!
Elizabeth I was threatened many times from Mary Queen of Scots and the people Mary ruled. They were cousins, so Elizabeth was unwilling to kill her despite the threats. After they continued, Mary Queen of Scots was beheaded for these threats on the country. This is why Elizabeth was never physically hurt because of Mary, because Mary was killed.
Elizabeth I aunt Margaret married Mary's grand father James IV of Scots.
