Wyatt's Rebellion was intended as a four-pronged rising: Wyatt in Kent, Suffolk in the Midlands, Courtenay in the west, and Carew in Devon. Only Wyatt's Kent rising came to anything.

His capture and execution on Tower Hill ended any hope of Princess Elizabeth being placed on the throne before Mary could marry Philip of Spain.
