That’s always confused me as well. She gets like 6-7 guys throughout the show who fall in love with her. And all of them propose to her and she even ends up marrying two of them. And most of the people in her life just adored her and treated her like this queen. But Tom and Edith saw her for who she was. Although I feel like Edith might have been more biased. Tom was the only one on the show that I think truly saw Mary for who she was. He was constantly calling her out on her wrong doings, he was always pushing her to be better. But he was also like the ONLY character on the whole show who could actually get Mary to listen to him. It’s like the rest of the world would say “Mary no” and Mary would say “Mary YES!” But Tom would say “Mary no” and Mary would at first say “Mary no” 😂

her sister was very "woe is me" though. That was not a trait that was admired. Plus she was plain and homely. Mary was beautiful, exuded confidence, intelligence, sophistication and power. Mary liked Sybil because Sybil never asked for pity. Really, I think Edith is the one who messed up the most here. She got herself pregnant, refused to get rid of the child and then kept lying about it- including to the guy she was going to marry. He was going to leave her anyway when he found out.

Let's not forget Edith wasn't all kindness either - their first conflict in the series is Edith sending the Turkish embassy a letter telling them Mary slept with Mr Pamuk, which she does out of spite and with no regards to the consequences for her sister's reputation (which could be devastating in those times). Mary does basically the same, except instead of telling strangers, she tells Bertie. Both awful things, of course, but Edith's is only worse because her lie is much bigger (and because so much had gone wrong for her already). Mary was haughty and proud, and she had a mean streak, but she was also righteous and determined, and showed her kindness in other ways. All in all, a great character if you want your protagonist to be interesting.

mary's not always kind.. edith i'm not sure if she's even ever kind except during the war, and she never apologizes to anyone she wrongs ie. the drews, the farmer's wife and mary.. mary i think, is generally kind to anyone but she can be so mean and vindictive to anyone's unkind to her.. mary instantly knows what she did to edith was wrong, she went to edith's room to try to apologize but she's very proud, a snob, she later did later on set-up that meeting between edith and bertie.. what edith did though, i believe was much graver, it not only put mary at risk, but the entire family, even mr. bates, it haunted the family for years, mary was forced to accept me carlyle's proposal, whereas edith, she's never shown remorse to any wrongdoing, when mary confronted her, she doubled down and called her a sl*t, when a couple of episodes later she was fooling around with the married farmer.. there was a scene after the war that even sybil mentions that edith was much nicer during the war implying that edith was not the nicer sister between her and mary.. but they've long move on and matured at least based on the 2nd movie.. who knows after that.. they are afterall sisters, even sisters at old age are not prone to rivalry.. 😅

Mary was flawed in the same way Edith was flawed. Mary was the eldest child but still had to rely on marriage to maintain her social status; she could not inherit. Edith was the middle child, considered plain in comparison with her two sisters, and perhaps socially awkward. Mary was considered a “catch”, while Edith was often overlooked. Edith was angry and embittered, Mary was angry and frustrated. This led each of them to behave badly. I never liked Edith’s “rehabilitation” as the series progressed, because it came at the expense of Mary. In order for Edith to “win”, Mary had to “lose”; all in all, a very simplistic plot resolution to their relationship.

I love how she became master of her own life, she had a job, a big responsibility, she overcame all the rejections and finished on top. At this moment of the series, I thought Mary was jealous of Edith and her accomplishments, Edith wouldn’t give her the time of day busy as she was with her own life and she hated that she hadn’t a willing punching bag anymore.

I mean, it isn't something a woman tells anybody, except really a handful of people she is forced to, much less an almost stranger who may of may not become a love interest! He can claim she should have told him after things got quite serious, and after she had meant to accept him. That was the reasonable and realistic request.

I suppose thinking things over, after the shock, he might have realized she had more than once procrastinated and hinted at how "her life was complicated", and he must have realized she was trying to find a way to tell. And that's why he got over it.

Third, because she loved him when she realized why Sybil truly loved Tom and he was truly in love with Sybil.

It wasnt that long ago that Edith (whom I like...she has real heart) wrote the Turkish Ambassador informing him that the Turkish Prince died in Lady Mary's bed. A story which haunted Lady Mary for years and forced her to flee to her maternal grandmother in NYC until the story faded. Somehow that act of sabotage by Edith never gets thrown back in Ediths face. Mary and Edith are both cowards and bullies. Sisters can be cats with long sharp claws....and its not an untruth to say that Edith suffered numerous attacks from Mary's long cat claws all her life...because as we are reminded in the story...the eldest carried the full weight of marrying into wealth and power and social class in order to maintain the family's standing into the next generation. Sybil told the story that Mary and Edith never mention and that was potential marriage partners were all dead from WW1 so marrying was a far greater problem than downton abbey alludes to in the storyline....but WW1 killed multiple generations of young men and that dearth of marriageable men was a hindrance to women like Mary, Edith and Sybil their whole life. Of course with Cora being American, one would think the Crawley's would have solved that problem by trips to America where men were still plentiful. Violet and Cora discuss marriageable men in Europe if the girls cannot find men in England but that is a fallacy of bad writing because many of the marriageable men in Europe were also dead from WW1. They didnt call the WW1 generation, it the "lost generation" for no reason.

Edith did mention the fact that most young available men of their age were dead, when Cora's mum was comforting her and Robert came by, and they argued about the man (whose name i can't remember ) being twenty five years older then her.

She does trust him as much as she can, but he's demanding a specific kinda trust that almost no woman has to luxury to be able to give! And then walks out on her for it! And all for protecting herself and her child!

Edith is the one that dogged her sister in a much worse way to begin with. She wrote a letter about Pamuk, trying to get Mary shunned from the whole town and had zero sympathy when Mary found out. That is unforgivable. Edith brought this on herself and has never shown any remorse for the things she does to people. Edith only cares about Edith. Mary treats everyone with respect, even the staff. She admits when she's wrong and apologizes. Edith also had no problem making out with a married farmer while his wife was right there at the same time. Edith used Mrs. Drewe as a babysitter, than ripped Marigold away from her without any sympathy or compassion for everything the Drewes have done for her. She's a pity party of one, always woe is me. Also when Carson was having a heart attack, all she cared about was her dress. She's very selfish. At least Mary cares about people and treats everyone with respect .

I love love love Mary. I understand her character. She is stubborn and often times not always nice as Robert said but when people she has an understandably unwavering love and respect for like Carson, Tom, Anna, and Violet, call her out, it may take her a moment to lick her wounds but she sees their reason and I love that. No one in this show is a paragon of virtue which is its strength. It's incredibly human and I appreciate the nuances and dimensions most characters are afforded

Unpopular opinion. Edith has always been as bad as Mary but plays the victim while Mary is the ice queen. They were both toxic.

They always had that brother sister relationship of holding each other accountable.

Let's be honest:Edith was in the wrong to start with. The way she talked to Mary, she should've used some of that nerve to tell Bertie the truth. But she didn't. She had to have known that by accepting him without telling him, it was going to blow up in her face. Yes, I know there's a ton of people who think Edith was a saint(she wasn't! FAR FROM IT IMO!)even though she's done the same, if not worse than Mary. At least Mary never messes with a married man, whereas Edith was with not one, but TWO! Don't get me started on how shitty Edith was to the people who raised her child because she was too much of a coward to face people. And no, I'm not a Mary supporter, she can be a real witch. The only one I truly admired was Sybil. She was the only real sweetheart out of the three.
