King Francis is finally dead and as "Reign" Season 4 follow history, Queen Mary would still get married to two possible candidates. The third one may finally bring her some luck in love this time around although he may be responsible for some crimes to secure Mary's affection.
Following the series of "Reign," it could be seen that King Francis (Toby Regbo) and Queen Mary (Adelaide Kane) are very much in love. However, the king died when they were ambushed by bandits on their way to Paris. King Francis tried to save Queen Mary from a possible death which ended for Francis getting injured resulting in his death.
Nostradamus already predicted his death and was asked to take the necessary steps to avoid his demise but he was still unable to escape his fate. Before he died in "Reign" Season 3, King Francis asked Queen Mary to make sure that Charles (Spencer MacPherson) is king and the regency is secured. He also asked him for a second and mostly a difficult task, and that is for Queen Mary to find love again as he would eventually die, according to Christian Today.
Following the accounts of history, on "Reign" Season 4, it is assumed that two men will compete for Mary's heart. While the first man, Lord Darnley Henry Stuart (Will Kemp) is also smitten with Queen Mary but his intentions was to bring down Queen Elizabeth (Rachel Skarsten) and claim Kingship on Queen Mary's land.
To save Queen Mary from a possible mistake of having Lord Darnley as a husband for Queen Mary, the Earl of Bothwell, James Hepburn (Adam Croasdell) will plot to kill Darnley in "Reign" Season 4. Although there is not enough proof to point the murder to him, Queen Mary's advisors will still doubt him.
James Hepburn who is totally in love with Queen Mary in "Reign" Season 4 will do everything in great extent to show his affection for the queen which is why after the death of Lord Darnley, Bothwell becomes the third husband.
There will be a lot to see on "Reign" Season 4 as the cast is still on production. Once the series comes back, fans will find out if they indeed follow history.
