Short answers, pulled from the story.
Elizabeth Blount's parents married in 1491 according to post-mortem records of Sir Thomas Blount of Kinlet. Her father was Sir John Blount, the eldest son and heir of Sir Thomas Blount who had been knighted by Henry VII at the battle of Stoke in 1487. Her mother Katherine came from Knightley in Staffordshire where she inherited many manors.
Elizabeth arrived at Court by the spring of 1512 serving as a maid-of-honour to Katherine of Aragon. She caught the eye of the King and became his mistress during 1514 or 1515 after performing in Christmas mummery held at Greenwich in 1514. Her relationship with Henry VIII lasted about eight years until the affair ended for unknown reasons shortly after their son was born.
On the 15th of June 1519 Blount bore the King an illegitimate son who was named Henry FitzRoy. He later became Duke of Richmond and Somerset and Earl of Nottingham. This child stood as the only illegitimate son of Henry VIII whom the King acknowledged as his own.
Blount returned to her husband's estates where she died shortly after July 1540. It has traditionally been asserted that the cause of her death was consumption. She was not buried with either husband Gilbert Lord Tailboys or Edward Clinton.
In 1522 Blount entered an arranged marriage with Gilbert Tailboys 1st Baron Tailboys of Kyme whose family had a history of insanity. After her husband Gilbert Lord Tailboys also predeceased her dying in 1530, she subsequently married a younger man named Edward Clinton or Fiennes 9th Baron Clinton between 1533 and 1535. They were married some time between 1533 and 1535 producing three daughters.
