In 1603, as I stated above, Arabella Stuart was the only other serious claimnant to the throne, but she was mentally unstable and thus no one seriously considered her. Thus in 1603, the younger Edward Seymour and his brother were considered bastards and thus unable to inherit the throne. The two were then sent to exile in deparate places in the country,and their marraige was ruled invalid due to lack of witnesses and records. They were supposed to separated, but Katherine got pregnant again. Elizabeth was livid (whe was always jealous of others who got married anyway), and jailed the two in the Tower.

This claim went on to be vested in Mary's granddaughter the nine-day queen Lady Jane Grey. Under laws passed by Henry VIII the succession went Edward, Mary, Elizabeth, then bypassed his sister Margaret and her Stuart descendents (so as not to let the throne fall into the hands of the Scots) and passed to the descendents of Henry's younger sister Mary Tudor.
