My mother Lady Rich, my sister Isabella, my brother Mountjoy and sometimes my brother Robert.
|
|
Who is your chief ally on this Progress?
|
|
My family and Her Majesty, of course. I also get on quite well with the Vavasours, the Cecils, the Sidneys, and Lord Derby, my Godfather
|
|
Who is your enemy on this Progress?
|
|
Clever girls keep these things to themselves so that you are never suspected.
|
|
Why are you on Progress?
|
|
I'm on Progress to make my debut of sorts, be in Her Majesty's company, spend time with my Maman and make new acquaintances, and of course get into trouble...I mean...have fun...with my friends and cousins.
|
|
Why are you at Court?
|
|
I'm at court to join my mother, uncle and the rest of the Devereaux family. Her Majesty's Boleyn relatives have finally been asked to return!
|
|
Three (3) facts that we know about you and can talk or react about:
|
|
Fact1:
I remind my mother of Her Majesty's mother and have been encouraged in this respect. I have a miniature portrait of said lady which I most happily wear. Her Majesty is also my Godmother.
|
|
Fact2:
I was born in the same year as my brother, Robert, who will become the next Baron Rich. We all despise the current Baron Rich.
|
|
Fact3:
I am a bit unconventional and like a great deal of sport, thanks to being fostered by Catherine Howard, Lady Berkeley. I also like to study and learn, as well as have fun. I secretly back Her Majesty's brand of "window shopping" when it comes to suitors.

|
What ONE thing can YOU (the actor) tell us/show us about your character that you want us to 'see' when we play off of you?:
|
|
I am quite a bit like my ancestor, just with a better sense of self-preservation. I am also very much like my mother. Intrigue is good, and even if you think I'm not watching, trust me...I am.
