 White Queen " has been portrayed in novels and legends as a romantic figure . In reality , her 15 th Century life was far from a fairy - tale . She 
 may have married for love but as England ' s Queen she faced danger and betrayal . 
 As the new 10 - part drama series " The White Queen " continues on BBC One , historian Amy Licence delves behind the myth to find the real Elizabeth Woodville . 
 Elizabeth Woodville was born around 1437 at Grafton Regis , Northamptonshire . Her mother had been married to a son of Henry IV but after he died , the wealthy widow controversially became the wife of her social inferior , the knight Richard Woodville . Elizabeth was the eldest of their 14 children . She married , aged about 15 , and soon after the country erupted in civil war . Known as the " Wars of the Roses " or " Cousins ' War , " this pitched the " red " Lancastrians against the " white " Yorkists in a struggle for the throne .

 just another royal conquest . Out of piety or ambition , she refused to become Edward ' s mistress , but his passion for her spurred him to make a surprising proposal of marriage . [ Word ] confiscate 몰수 하 다 / regime 정권 / beneath 밑 에 / mundane 재미없 는 . 일상 적 인 / prominent 중요 한 / enamoured 매료 당한 For Elizabeth , the offer of a crown was irresistible . It meant her two young sons , parents and siblings would be well provided for . Hers was a whirlwind courtship but she would have been a fool not to accept what Edward could offer . The marriage was conducted in secret , as the last union of a King with a commoner had taken place in 1066 . Edward knew it would prove unpopular because he would be expected to marry a foreign princess and secure alliances for the Yorkist regime . The ceremony was conducted in the late spring of 1464 , at Elizabeth ' s parental home . A " red " Lancastrian by birth she was now part of the " white " Yorkist family and England ' s Queen , yet Edward delayed announcing the marriage for five months . When the alliance was finally made public , that September , Edward ' s family and most of England ' s nobility were outraged by his choice . According to Thomas More , the Queen Mother was " sore moved " by the news and chided her son for marrying " out of his realm . " While none could deny the bride ' s personal charms or piety , her large family was widely disliked for its ambition . Parliament did not hold back , telling the King that the 27 - year - old Lancastrian widow was " no match " for him . Yet Edward stood firm and Elizabeth ' s formal presentation to Parliament was marked by respectful ceremony . Elizabeth would go on to bear Edward 10 children . Their eldest son and heir arrived in dramatic circumstances , amid fresh outbreaks of civil war . She was eight months pregnant when the King was forced into exile abroad , following a Lancastrian coup to return Henry VI to the throne in 1470 . In the middle of the night , Elizabeth fled to sanctuary at Westminster Abbey . Far from her accustomed luxury at court , she gave birth in poverty and uncertainty . Her son was born safely and named after his father . Fortunately , Edward returned at the head of an avenging army in 1471 and the next 12 years were comparatively peaceful . The marriage was a happy one , although the Queen had to turn a blind eye to her husband ' s affairs and Edward ' s most famous mistress , Jane Shore , was present on many court occasions .

Her twelve - year - old son was declared king Edward V , while his uncle Richard was appointed Protector . However , rumours surfaced that Elizabeth ' s husband had made a previous betrothal which would have invalidated her marriage and made her children illegitimate . Richard took the throne and 
 shut his nephew Edward and his younger brother in the Tower of London . They were never seen again and historians today still disagree about their fates . Elizabeth and her daughters returned to their Westminster sanctuary . Forced to accept the situation , the dowager Queen 
 had little choice but to hope for better days , until an old Lancastrian 
 ally , Margaret Beaufort , proposed a marriage between her own son , the exiled Henry Tudor and Elizabeth ' s eldest daughter , Elizabeth of York . Following the disappearance of her brothers , Elizabeth of York could claim to be the legitimate heir . She became Tudor ' s wife and the first Queen of that dynasty after Henry had defeated her uncle Richard III at Bosworth Field in 1485 . 
 Soon after this , the " White Queen " retired from public life to make way for the reign of her daughter , the " White Princess ". She embraced a life of quiet contemplation in Bermondsey Abbey , dying in 1492 .
