Summary

Could you imagine being the Queen of England for a week and 2 days? Would it be worth losing your head over? Probably not, but unfortunately, Lady Jane Grey wasn’t given much choice, thanks to the folks she called family. Perhaps doomed from the start because of her overly ambitious parents, at least they gave her a decent education before they married her off to Guildford Dudley in a plot for the throne.
