He served Edward’s brother, the Duke of Gloucester Richard. He gets killed by some Scottish raiders, allowing her to marry the man she actually wants to marry, her neighbor named Andrew Lynbridge.

The man she was being forced to marry, a fourteen year old and someone who would align King Edward with the Tudors, is wed to her anyway by Edward by proxy, this enrages her and she does not accept him as a husband. She leaves the estate at the very young age of sixteen to avoid marrying someone she does not want to marry.
