Short answers, pulled from the story.
Elizabeth Howard Duchess of Norfolk was an English aristocrat born around 1497 into a family tree that stretched from the highest peaks of English nobility to the execution block. She was the eldest daughter of Edward Stafford 3rd Duke of Buckingham and Lady Eleanor Percy.
Lady Elizabeth became the second wife of Thomas Howard Earl of Surrey before the 8th of January 1513 when she was only fifteen years old. This union was not a love match but a political arrangement that quickly descended into a nightmare of domestic abuse and public scandal.
When Anne was crowned queen on the 1st of June 1533 the Duchess refused to attend the coronation from the love she bore to the previous Queen Catherine of Aragon. This decision further isolated her from the court and her own family due to her staunch loyalty to Catherine.
On the 23rd of March 1534 Norfolk forced a separation and locked her in a chamber taking away all her jewels and apparel. She was sent to a house in Redbourn Hertfordshire where she wrote letters to Cromwell complaining that she was kept in a state of virtual imprisonment with a meagre annual allowance of only 200 pounds.
Elizabeth Howard died on the 30th of November 1558 at Lambeth and was buried in the Howard chapel in the Church of St Mary-at-Lambeth. Her brother wrote a brief but apparently heartfelt epitaph for her after her death.
