Mary Tudor, first queen regnant of England was not known (in her later years) to be a beautiful women, and from what I've read, neither were the ladies she surrounded herself with. It was common practice during the reign of Henry VIII to ensure that his queen consorts had only the most beautiful women around them. Near the end of Mary's life she definitely a sight - distended belly from whatever ailed her, skeletal frame, thinning hair and bad breath. That is the consensus [More]
