Answer

Mary of Guise's sons, James V, passed away in 1541 due to an unknown illness. He contracted this sudden and severe illness after he was defeated on the battlefield by English invaders at the Battle of Solway Moss. With the king's death, the infant Mary, Queen of Scots, took the throne, though Scotland was largely governed by regents during the queen's minority.
