Mary, Queen of Scots ascended the throne at just 6 days old. She became Queen Consort of France at 16 and was widowed at 17. After returning to Scotland she fell in lust with her handsome cousin. But the honeymoon ended abruptly when her new groom stabbed her friend 56 times in front of her. Mary probably had him strangled and then quickly married again, to her second husband’s murderer. But as they say, marry in haste, repent over the course of your 19 year imprisonment. Queen Mary then got herself entangled in a plot to overthrow her lifelong rival, Queen Elizabeth I. But instead of wearing the English crown, Mary’s head ended up on an English chopping block.
