In 1554, Prince Phillip II of Spain gave it to Mary Tudor, Queen of England, at their wedding. However, while she was enamored of the Spaniard, he was less than enthused about her or her looks and left for an extended trip to his motherland. She died four years later and the pearl went back to Phillip who went on to create an incestuous clan. La Peregrina stayed with Phillip’s heirs until the Spanish Hapsburg dynasty collapsed in 1700, a victim of generations of inbreeding.
