Best Answer

Elizabeth Woodville was unliked because she was lowborn. Her father was a simple knight, but her mother was Jacquetta, Duchess of Bedford. Elizabeth was also arrogant and cold-hearted. She was known to keep her own mother and the King's sister on their knees for hours during her churching after her first child (Elizabeth) to Edward was born.
