The article discusses Mary Boleyn, the older sister of Anne Boleyn, who became the second wife of King Henry VIII of England. Mary was born around 1499 and spent part of her youth at the French court, where she had an affair with King Francis I, which caused family disgrace. Her father arranged her marriage to William Carey, a nobleman close to the king, but Henry VIII soon began an affair with Mary. After Carey died of a deadly disease, Mary married again, this time to William Stafford. However, her relationship with her younger sister Anne, who later became queen, deteriorated after Anne learned of Mary’s new marriage. Anne, ambitious and resentful, had Mary expelled from court. Anne eventually became queen through her marriage to Henry VIII, but she was executed in 1536. Mary outlived her sister and died in 1543.
