5 margaret of anjous actions

Margaret contributed to the problems in England through her unpopular marriage to the King, due to being a much stronger personality than Henry VI and having a lot of influence over him, which increased the longer they were together. This meant that many people blamed her for manipulating and corrupting the king.

She also heightened the problems through her affair with Suffolk, as it lead to rumours that her son was illegitimate and many believed it to be De La Pole's, including Henry. This also contributed to Henry's breakdown, leading to further political instability in England.

Her poor relationship with York also caused issues in England, as she was trying for regency, which was very unpopular as she was a woman, French and suspected to have had an affair. It was also her that escalated the tension between the Yorkists and Lancastrians.

I think that there was hostility between MoA and DoY before 1455 as there is evidence of her trying to sabotage his attempts of gaining more power through assassination attempts, sending him to other countries and having favouritism of Suffolk and Somerset
