Was Jane Queen for 9 or 13 days?


Leanda de Lisle (author of ‘The Sisters Who Would Be Queen: The Tragedy of Mary, Katherine and Lady Jane Grey’)

(c) Harper Press

She was neither queen for 9 days nor for 13, as she was never queen. But she was proclaimed as queen by traitors for 9 days. If you do believe she was queen, then she became so on Edward’s death and was overthrown after 13 days.
