'''Lord Montgomery''' was the young man who was supposedly jousting with [[King Henry]] during a tournament and mortally wounded him.

==Early Life==
Lord Montgomery was a French nobleman, and was a captain in King Henry's ''Scots Guards.''

==Season 1==
'''[[Slaughter Of Innocence]]'''<br />
Lord Gabriel Montgomery was called out to joust the [[King Henry|King of France]] in a friendly competition. However before he could, he was knocked out and tied up by [[King Francis|Prince Francis]] who took his place in the games.

Lord Montgomery later discovered that the person pretending to be himself had mortally wounded the King who later died from his wounds.

==Season Two==
* [[Coronation]] - ''(Mentioned)''
[[King Francis]] admits to killing [[King Henry|his father]] within earshot of [[Lord Narcisse|Stéphane Narcisse]]. Narcisse later informs Francis, he already knew and had Lord Montgomery stashed away somewhere.


* [[Blood for Blood]] - ''(Mentioned)''
Narcisse reminded Francis, he still has Lord Montgomery and can have him, and [[Mary Stuart|Queen Mary]] hanged for high treason agents the crown, and murder of [[King Henry]].


* [[The Prince of the Blood]] - ''(Mentioned)''
King Francis told his brother [[Sebastian]] that is was not Lord Montgomery who killed their father, but he, himself. He then tells Bash to find Lord Montgomery at all costs.


* [[Acts of War]]

Lord Montgomery was founding in an old wooden house a days ride from Court. He had been staying there for weeks, possibly months after Lord Narcisse had, had him taken there to keep him as leverage. When King Francis and his brother broke in, then interrogated him on what he knew. He promised he knew nothing, but his new King knew he was lying. Not wanting to be hung for high-treason, the King gives the nod to his brother, [[Sebastian]], to stab him in the heart. He obliged.

==Historical Notes==
* The jousting accident actually happened during the ''Peace of Cateau Cambrésis'' celebrations of [[Elisabeth and Philip's Wedding]] on the 22 June 1559.
* Henry absolved Montgomery of any blame, however, unable to accept the consequences, Montgomery left French Court and moved back to ''Normandy, France.''
* After the death of the King, Gabriel subsequently converting to [[Protestant]]ism.
