Pregnancy Time

Mary was pregnant and the father wasn’t yet ready to take the responsibility of the baby. The man abandoned pregnant Mary to travel the world. She was heartbroken and as always what she did what was unexpected from any normal person. After delivery, she gave up her baby as she wanted to live the gypsy life.

The Laughing Stock Of England

When Samuel and Elizabeth Worrall were now a fun topic of discussion across England. They were accused of trusting a stranger blindly. Mary Willcocks understood that she couldn’t stay there and then she decided to sail to Philadelphia. She tried her hand at being a performer and the kind-hearted Mrs. Worrall paid for her journey to America.

Failure To Launch

Her Princess Caraboo luck was tested again when she performed on the stage. But her charm was now over and she went back to England in 1824. For the last time, she tried acting but her homeland but that was a big failure too.

Always In Wonderland

Mary always had a different world where she loved to stay. She was used to assuming stories. Her stories were not at all realistic and people found them childish. Her karma finally gave her results which were not fruitful. However, she went on to live a long life and selling leeches to the Bristol Infirmary.

Humbling End

In 1994, a movie was made based on the life of Mary Willock named as abovious “Princess Caraboo”. Mary finally met a trustworthy man and married him. She had a daughter who grew up to live a decent happy life. On Christmas Eve of 1864, she passed away on a snowy day. Historian, Brian Haughton said, “that Mary dared to escape her menial position and perpetrate such a complicated hoax is, I believe, nothing short of wondrous. Mary Willcocks should be an inspiration to anyone who feels held back by their position in society.”
