Henry VIII was Elizabeth's father. Her mother was Anne Boleyn, Henry's second wife, who he had executed when Elizabeth was two years old. Eliabeth's half-brother, Edward VI, attempted to exclude Elizabeth and her sister Mary from the throne, but failed. Elizabeth survived prosecution and interrogation under her sister's pro-Catholic reign, but succeeded in becoming the only recourse to Anglicans and royals alike.

Catherine of Aragon, a Spanish princess, had married Henry's older brother Arthur, on 14th November 1501. As was common for the time, and especially for royalty, it was an arranged marriage aimed at reinforcing the alliance between England and Spain. Arthur died, aged 16, on 2nd April 1502, and again to support the alliance with Spain, King Henry VII, father of Arthur and the future King Henry VIII proposed that the young Henry should marry his dead brother's widow. Permission for this to take place had to be obtained from the Pope and it was fourteen months later, in June 1503 that Henry and Catherine were betrothed. Henry was then 12 years old. They were married on 11th June 1509, when Henry was 18 years old.
