"And I have great joy in pronouncing Prince George Henry Valois-Tudor, Duke of Cambridge, a member of the church of England." The church rang with applause as George was handed to Elizabeth, his godmother and was taken to his mother's chambers. His godfather's were Charles Brandon and George Boleyn, and his other godmother was Katherine Howard, daughter of John Howard and Catherine Parr. Mary took George from her sister, and placed him in his crib. Then, to her surprise, the herald announced, "My Lady, Lady Catalina De Aragon, the Princess of Spain." Her mother came into the room, and as Elizabeth curtsied and left, Mary had never wanted her sister by her side more.
Catalina curtsied, and Mary contemplated not asking her to rise, but thought better of it. As she did, Mary noticed her mother's eyes were red. "Have you been crying?" Mary asked, momentarily forgetting that she was angry at her. Catalina decided to say it quickly,
"MyfatherhasdiedandIamnowQuee nofSpainthereforeIhavetoleav etogoandrulethecountryi'msorry." It took Mary a few minutes to work out what she had said, but when she did, she didn't know what to say. "How long have you known?" was the first thing said after what seemed a century. "Since George was born." Something struck Mary at that point. "That's why you wanted me to name him Fernando." Catalina nodded, and Mary sighed, "It will have to be publicly announced Madre." She nodded again, "I know Chica." They both smiled sadly, as Catalina left the room.
The court was gathered for an emergency meeting, and no one knew why except Mary. "Lady Catalina of Aragon, The Princess of Spain." Catalina swept into the room and curtsied to Henry and Anne, "Your Majesties, I regret to inform you that I must leave court. My Father, Fernando of Spain has died after a short illness, and I have duties as Queen of Spain." All heads turned to Mary, who stared into space, ignoring them. "Very well. We wish you the best." This came from Anne, not Henry, but it was widely known that the Queen had equal power to the King. Catalina curtsied again and left, the rest of the court following.
