Why didn’t Queen Elizabeth bury Mary I next to her mother like she wanted?

Although Mary had left instructions in her will for her mother Catherine of Aragon's remains to be exhumed from her humble tomb in Peterborough Cathedral so that mother and daughter could be buried together, her instructions were ignored. Mary was buried by herself at Westminster, with just stones marking her resting place.

Princess Grace of Monaco visiting JFK at the White House, 1961.

Grace Kelly first met John Kennedy in 1954, when he was in the hospital recovering from a back injury. She had met Jackie and her sister Lee that night at a dinner party, and the two ladies asked Grace to accompany them to the hospital to help cheer him up.

Here’s Grace’s recollection of what happened: “I had been to a dinner party where I had met Mrs. Kennedy and her sister [Lee Bouvier] for the first time. They asked me to go to the hospital with them to pay a visit to help cheer him up. They wanted me to go into his room and say I was the new night nurse... I was terribly embarrassed. Eventually I was sort of pushed into the room by the two girls. I introduced myself, but he had recognized me at once and couldn’t have been sweeter or more quick to put me at ease.”
