Dorothy Seymour

Dorothy Seymour was the youngest surviving child and third daughter of Sir John Seymour and Lady Margaret Wentworth. Her older brothers included Edward and Thomas Seymour, and older sisters Jane Seymour and Elizabeth Seymour (who does not appear in the series). She is shown to be quite close to her sister, Jane, before Jane leaves home upon her marriage to King Henry Tudor.

Life
Dorothy was born between 1519 and 1521 and was likely raised at the family seat of Wulfhall in Wiltshire with her other siblings. She is shown to be a kind young girl, and is excited whenever her brothers return from far-off places and is doted on by them, and is given many presents. Although she seems like a spoiled little girl, she is very inquisitive and sweet.

She is next seen with Jane doing needlepoint when the king is dining at their home, and Dorothy asks her sister if she loves the king. Jane replies that, as a king's subject, she is bound to love him, but Dorothy doesn't seem to fully believe Jane's words.

It is later revealed by Thomas, her elder brother, while her sister is riding with the Princess Mary after Jane's marriage to the king, that Dorothy has decided she is ready to be married and does so. Dorothy is never seen again after this mere mention, but would go on to marry twice: firstly to Sir Clement Smith, and secondly to Thomas Leventhorpe.
