James vi marries arabella Stuart

So as it says on the title how would elizabeth I react if James vi of Scotland married arabella Stuart?

Arabella was born in 1575 and James only marred anne of Denmark in 1589, so could it be possible that instead of anne he marries arabella as a means of shoring up his claim to England?
 
Hmm this is true and given her antipathy it might not happen. Though if she’s dead at the time?
 
If they did marry, it would have interesting implications for the future of the dynasty. Both because of the general risk of repeated inbreeding (James's parent being half first cousins and James and Arabella being full first cousins), and because James and Arabella both had health and behavior issues that have been speculated to be symptoms of porphyria (IMO, the case for Arabella having porphyria is much stronger than the case for James). If porphyria genes become fixed in the royal family's genetics, it's going to have consequences down the road.

Oh shit, not the mad man's gene again/.
