Edward VI was the son of King Henry VIII and his third wife, Jane Seymour, and he became king of England at the age of nine following Henry's death in 1547. His reign lasted from 1547 until his death in 1553, marked by significant religious reform, as he was a Protestant and supported the further establishment of Protestantism in England. Edward's health was fragile, and he suffered from various illnesses, leading to his early death at just 15 years old. His reign was characterized by political instability and the influence of powerful regents, particularly the Duke of Somerset and the Duke of Northumberland.
