Queen Elizabeth I's half-sister was Mary I of England, also known as Mary Tudor. Mary was the daughter of King Henry VIII and his first wife, Catherine of Aragon. She reigned as queen from 1553 to 1558 and is often remembered for her attempts to restore Roman Catholicism in England. Their relationship was complex, shaped by the political and religious turmoil of the time.
