Detailed explanation-1: -Far from being a nice, avuncular figure to his nephews Richard and Edward V (who became king on his father’s death but was never crowned), Uncle Richard had the juveniles housed in the Tower of the London and it soon became apparent that Richard wanted the throne for himself.
Detailed explanation-2: -But who gave the orders to Tyrell and his accomplices? Richard III is the name most associated with the mystery of the two little princes. It is said that he had them killed as their right to the throne was stronger than his. Shakespeare certainly decided that he had given the order for the boys to be killed.
Detailed explanation-3: -The theory that Richard III killed the princes in the tower is the one most commonly accepted by historians, and originates from Tudor historians’, Polydore Vergil and Sir Thomas More’s, versions of events. It has been argued that Richard had the most motive and could easily access the princes.
