During Mary's reign the countess of Lennox had rooms in See also:Westminster See also:Palace; but on See also:Elizabeth's See also:accession she removed to See also:Yorkshire, where her See also:home at See also:Temple Newsam became a centre for See also:Catholic intrigue.

In 1566 she was sent to the Tower, but after the See also:murder of Darnley in 1567 she was released. She was at first loud in her denunciations of Mary, but was eventually reconciled with her daughter-in-See also:law.
