Because they married secretly without his consent, the King put William in the Tower of London & Lady Arabella in Lambeth. They planned to escape - Lady Arabella dressed like a man but was caught and put in the Tower. William succeeded & went to the continent looking for his wife. They never saw each other again. She died in the Tower, after going insane. He was allowed to return to England.2
