Did Anne Boleyn have much of a relationship with Elizabeth I?

In this instalment of her series "Questions about Anne Boleyn", Claire Ridgway, author of "The Fall of Anne Boleyn: A Countdown" and founder of The Anne Boleyn Files website, answers ...the question "Did Anne Boleyn have much of a relationship with Elizabeth?"

Claire considers whether Anne Boleyn was disappointed with her daughter's birth, whether there is evidence that she didn't bond with Elizabeth, and how she was involved with the princess's early life and upbringing. Claire also looks at the prevailing myth that Elizabeth I distanced herself from her mother's memory - just how true is that?

Book recommendation: "The Life and Death of Anne Boleyn" by Eric Ives.
