Why did Mary Elizabeth's half-sister and the Elizabeth the first not get along?
Mary I and Elizabeth I did not get along because Mary blamed Elizabeth's mother, Anne, for disposing her mother, Catherine, and for taking Mary's title of Princess. 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. Elizabeth was also a Protestant and Mary was a devout Catholic.
