How about Dad sends him with the ambassadors while Mom's busy elsewhere? And she doesn't find out in time. But everyone else thinks it's a good idea because they don't want a "mama's boy" for a king.
Sigismund Augustus was too young then.Could the marriage have occurred in the brief period of time before Henry's dissolving of his marriage with Catherine of Aragon and his marriage to Anne Boleyn? Perhaps as an over-the-top attempt to get at Catherine for her continued defiance.
Hard nut to crack-either is too early for Sigismund or too late for Mary. There is theory, quite likely, that Sigismund Augustus and Barbara were caught 'in flagranti' by Barbara's brother and cousin, and that this event hastened Sigismund's decision of marriage (Radziwiłłs demanded it to avoid shame for their family). Now imagine Siggie and Mary caught in bed by Henry VIII, abstracting from implausibility of such situation, result would be quite different...
If it's a matter of Jane surviving, and especially if it's a matter of her having more children, then it seems more likely to me that (unless it's a matter of pride in marrying a King or heir to the throne) Mary could end up with Philip, Duke of Palatinate-Neuburg (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip,_Duke_of_Palatinate-Neuburg), both of whom seemed to have genuine affection for each other. And then maybe, especially if Henry doesn't want a visual reminder of Anne Boleyn around, Eizabeth could be the one married off to Sigismund.
I could be wrong. I often am.
If Jane is pregnant, she's getting anything she wants. That's why I suggested the summer of 1537. Jane died in childbirth. Are we butterflying E6 or just having him born on time and Jane dies in the second pregnancy?
Would Sigismund I want such a match at that time though? The furthest west I remember him negotiating was an anti-Hapsburg alliance with France in 1524, but that rell through after Pavia. Besides which, I could be wrong, but I think Henry VIII was persona non grata among the Catholic monarchs of Europe at the time.
If they had mle issue, that might make succession disputes fun down the line....If it's a matter of Jane surviving, and especially if it's a matter of her having more children, then it seems more likely to me that (unless it's a matter of pride in marrying a King or heir to the throne) Mary could end up with Philip, Duke of Palatinate-Neuburg (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip,_Duke_of_Palatinate-Neuburg), both of whom seemed to have genuine affection for each other.
