Mary I of England, often referred to as "Bloody Mary," was known for her persecution of Protestants during her reign. She sought to restore Catholicism in England and executed many Protestants, including prominent figures. Elizabeth I, Mary’s half-sister and successor, was initially imprisoned by Mary due to fears that she would become a focus for Protestant opposition. Ultimately, Elizabeth's reign marked a return to Protestantism and is noted for its relative religious tolerance compared to Mary’s rule.

During Elizabeth mother, Anne's, reign, Anne encouraged her ladies and maids to beat Mary and Mary was forced to serve the young Elizabeth. Mary then viewed her half-sister as she did her stepmother, believing that Elizabeth would be just like Anne Boleyn. Then there was also the fact that no matter how much Mary tried to say that Elizabeth was not her father's daughter, Elizabeth looked and acted more like Henry VIII than Mary did.
