The Duke of Gloucester brought the young King to London ready for the coronation and installed him in a 'suitable residence' - the Tower of London.
Shortly afterwards he took the Queen's remaining son Richard to join his brother at the Tower.
Gloucester's friends then proclaimed that the two children were illegitimate and that Edward had no claim to the throne.
Parliament ratified this and Richard, Duke of Gloucester, was proclaimed King Richard III.
