I did read somewhere that Margaret Beaufort , Henry's mother was called the mother in law from hell. She never forgave Princess Elizabeth for wanting to marry Richard after she was promised to Henry Vll. It really was the real life version of the game of thrones. I think anyone that was a serf back then counted their blessings. I know I would.
Would Elizabeth--or any young noblewoman of the time--have expected anything other than an arranged marriage advantageous to her family? Seems to me that if you expect to be married off to someone, becoming queen would be quite a consolation prize.

Don't know Game of Thrones at all.
