first she was also one of the wealthiest
9
00:00:24,100 --> 00:00:27,070
women in England at the time our Bella

of her grandmother which was quite
18
00:00:44,260 --> 00:00:46,809
unusual as orphans of privilege would
19
00:00:46,809 --> 00:00:48,910
usually become Ward's of master of the
20
00:00:48,910 --> 00:00:51,579

as better Hardwick took her to her home
24
00:00:59,530 --> 00:01:02,140
in Derbyshire Hardwick Hall where they
25
00:01:02,140 --> 00:01:05,049
lived in protective seclusion Lady
26
00:01:05,049 --> 00:01:07,090
Arbella Stewart was educated to a very
27
00:01:07,090 --> 00:01:09,610
fine standard a very bright child became
28
00:01:09,610 --> 00:01:12,310
a very intelligent woman she continued
29
00:01:12,310 --> 00:01:13,900
her education into her adulthood
30
00:01:13,900 --> 00:01:17,470
learning French Spanish and Italian she
31
00:01:17,470 --> 00:01:19,330
also learned to play various instruments
32
00:01:19,330 --> 00:01:22,270
including the lute vile and virginals an
33
00:01:22,270 --> 00:01:23,890
instrument that was part of the
34
00:01:23,890 --> 00:01:26,500
harpsichord family our Bella was taught
35
00:01:26,500 --> 00:01:28,479
to read and her writing was to an
36
00:01:28,479 --> 00:01:30,939
exceedingly high standard she would
37
00:01:30,939 --> 00:01:33,369
eventually settle on William Seymour as
38
00:01:33,369 --> 00:01:35,200
her husband and they were married in
39
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,380
secret lady our Bella Stewart's duty was
40
00:01:38,380 --> 00:01:41,140
to marry very well as she was fourth in
41
00:01:41,140 --> 00:01:43,240
line to the throne after Queen Elizabeth
42
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,490
the first it was imperative she make an
43
00:01:45,490 --> 00:01:48,159
excellent marriage but any proposal
44
00:01:48,159 --> 00:01:49,479
would have to be agreed by her majesty
45
00:01:49,479 --> 00:01:52,119
before any marriage could take place to
46
00:01:52,119 --> 00:01:54,520
make it legal it would appear the first
47
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:56,350
suggestion would come from the House of
48
00:01:56,350 --> 00:01:56,710
Savoy
49
00:01:56,710 --> 00:01:58,780
the next from the Duke of Parma a
50
00:01:58,780 --> 00:02:01,930
Portugal for his eldest son originally
51
00:02:01,930 --> 00:02:04,240
proposed by the Pope himself which would
52
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,250
have perfectly suited the Roman Catholic
53
00:02:06,250 --> 00:02:08,470
Church the Pope finally decided to
54
00:02:08,470 --> 00:02:10,658
defrock his own brother to enable him to
55
00:02:10,658 --> 00:02:12,700
marry but nothing came of any of these
56
00:02:12,700 --> 00:02:13,629
suggestions
57
00:02:13,629 --> 00:02:15,819
it would appear there is no direct
58
00:02:15,819 --> 00:02:17,650
evidence to prove whether our Bella was
59
00:02:17,650 --> 00:02:17,980
in
60
00:02:17,980 --> 00:02:21,430
a Catholic or Protestant for marrying
61
00:02:21,430 --> 00:02:23,650
without the King's permission King James
62
00:02:23,650 --> 00:02:25,629
had both Arbella and William Seymore
63
00:02:25,629 --> 00:02:28,239
imprisoned William was imprisoned in the
64
00:02:28,239 --> 00:02:30,580
Tower of London and Arbella was held in
65
00:02:30,580 --> 00:02:32,909
the home of Sir Thomas Perry in Lambeth
66
00:02:32,909 --> 00:02:35,620
Arbella wrote attentively to William and
67
00:02:35,620 --> 00:02:38,170
to the king when the King heard of her
68
00:02:38,170 --> 00:02:40,390
letters to Seymour however he made
69
00:02:40,390 --> 00:02:42,010
arrangements for our Bella to be
70
00:02:42,010 --> 00:02:43,959
transferred from Lambeth to the custody
71
00:02:43,959 --> 00:02:46,930
of William James the Bishop of Durham in
72
00:02:46,930 --> 00:02:49,209
order to delay her departure our Bella
73
00:02:49,209 --> 00:02:51,430
claimed to be unwell in order to escape
74
00:02:51,430 --> 00:02:54,730
the escape itself was a success for both
75
00:02:54,730 --> 00:02:57,870
our Bella dressed as a man and William
76
00:02:57,870 --> 00:03:00,430
unfortunately our Bella left port before

00:03:00,430 --> 00:03:03,069
Williams arrival William boarded the
78
00:03:03,069 --> 00:03:05,560
next available vessel for France but the

00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,810
King having received word of the escape
80
00:03:07,810 --> 00:03:10,000
sent men to recapture our Bella and
81
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,280
