ruler of England

It was not long before the new reign also met with problems, caused by the central position at court of Roger Mortimer, who was now the de facto ruler of England. Mortimer used his power to acquire noble estates and titles, and his unpopularity grew with the humiliating Treaty of Northampton, signed with the Scots in 1328.[16] Also the young king came into conflict with his guardian. Mortimer knew his position in relation to the king was precarious, and subjected Edward to disrespect and humiliation. The tension increased after Edward and Philippa, who had married on 24 January 1328, had a son on 15 June 1330.[17] Eventually, Edward decided to take direct action against Mortimer. Aided by his close companion William Montagu and a small number of other trusted men, Edward took Mortimer by surprise at Nottingham Castle on 19 October 1330. Mortimer was executed, and Edward III’s personal reign began.[18]
