Fall Asleep to the Queen Who BETRAYED Her Own Father — Queen Mary II's Fatal Decision

Welcome to Sleepy Crown, where history whispers you to sleep. 🌙 In this complete journey through the life of Queen Mary II, we explore the remarkable story of England's joint sovereign (1662-1694)—from her privileged yet lonely childhood in Restoration England through her unexpected transformation into a beloved queen, to her tragic death from smallpox that left a nation in mourning and changed the course of British history forever. Witness young Mary grow up in the shadow of political intrigue as the Protestant daughter of Catholic James II, surviving the deaths of six siblings while being raised apart from her family. Follow her tearful marriage at age fifteen to her cousin William of Orange, a cold and distant stranger twelve years her senior, and her journey to the unfamiliar Netherlands where she would spend twelve transformative years learning to love both her husband and her adopted homeland. Experience the dramatic tension of 1688 when Mary faces an impossible choice—support her father King James II's Catholic policies or join her husband's Protestant invasion of England. Watch as the Glorious Revolution unfolds bloodlessly in England but violently in Ireland, establishing the constitutional monarchy and parliamentary supremacy that defines Britain today. Enter the unprecedented joint reign as Mary and William become England's only co-monarchs, ruling together through war, conspiracy, and political crisis. Witness Mary's effective solo rule during William's military campaigns, her moral crusades to reform the nation, and the heartbreaking estrangement from her beloved sister Anne over politics and friendship. The story reaches its tragic climax in December 1694 when smallpox strikes the thirty-two-year-old queen at Kensington Palace. Experience her final days of courage and faith, William's inconsolable grief, and the magnificent funeral that honored a queen who never wanted power but wielded it with grace and wisdom when duty called.
