Elizabeth I heavily influenced by loss of mother Anne Boleyn at young age

Evidence that both women experienced stress and anxiety, with Elizabeth traumatised by mother's death and issue of marriage

Elizabeth I was heavily influenced by her mother Anne Boleyn, despite the fact that the latter died when the Tudor queen was less than three years old, according to the historian and author Tracy Borman.

As well as being influenced by feminist ideas that were ahead of their time, Borman said there was evidence they both experienced stress and anxiety.
