Elizabeth was put there by her sister Mary , who was Queen at the time. Mary had a very bad relationship with Elizabeth ever since she had been born. When Mary came into power she now had the ability to get rid of Elizabeth. It's a shock she was not executed but Mary died before she had the chance to have the princess killed.
