Sir Walter Raleigh was an English explorer, soldier, and writer during the late 16th century, known for popularizing tobacco in England and for his attempts to establish a colony in North America, notably the Roanoke Colony. Bess, or Elizabeth Throckmorton, was his long-time companion and wife, whom he secretly married around 1591. Their relationship faced challenges, including Raleigh's imprisonment, but they remained devoted to each other throughout their lives. Bess played a significant role in supporting Raleigh during his political and exploratory endeavors.
