Elizabeth Blount (〔Norton, Elizabeth., Bessie Blount mistress to Henry VIII (Stroud, 2011) Pg. 47〕/〔Karen Lindsey, xv, ''Divorced, Beheaded, Survived'', Perseus Books, 1995〕/ – 1539/1540),〔 commonly known during her lifetime as Bessie Blount, was a mistress of Henry VIII of England. Blount is an ancestor of Sophie, Countess of Wessex, who is the wife of Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex, the youngest son of Queen Elizabeth II. ==Early life== Blount was the daughter of Sir John Blount and Catherine Pershall, of Kinlet, Bridgnorth, Shropshire. Sir John Blount was a loyal, if unremarkable, servant to the English Royal family, who accompanied King Henry to France in 1513 when he waged war against Louis XII of France. Little is known of Elizabeth Blount's early years, except for her reputation as a beauty, and for her famous affair with King Henry VIII (born in 1491, he was about seven years older than Bessie). There is no known portrait of her in existence. As a young girl, she came to the King's Court as a maid-of-honour to the King's wife, Catherine of Aragon. It was there that the young teenager caught the eye of the King and became his mistress during 1514 or 1515, a relationship which continued for about eight years.
