<p>[QUOTE="talerman, post: 7538541, member: 89314"]I am not sure what you mean by pass. It was a political marriage aimed at bringing England back into the Catholic world. Philip was 26, 11 years Mary’s junior, and had a son from a previous marriage. Mary appears to have been genuinely in love with him but, although he did not treat her badly, he did not love her and found her unattractive. They were apart more often than together. After Philip's departure from England in July 1557, Mary never saw him again. She was lonely. She died in 1558. Philip died in 1598, having married two more women who both deceased him, Elisabeth de Valois and Anna of Austria (his niece, in the Habsburg fashion).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
