	Robert Devereux, 3rd Earl of Essex - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Robert Devereux, 3rd Earl of Essex, (January 11, 1591 – 14 September 1646), was the son and heir of the unfortunate Robert Devereux, 2nd Earl of Essex, and succeeded to his father's title in 1604, three years after the previous earl had been executed for treason.
		Essex's marriage to Frances Howard in 1606, was not successful, and their subsequent divorce made him a laughing-stock, as she alleged that he was incapable of having sexual relations.
		His former wife proceeded to marry Robert Carr, Earl of Somerset, and was tried for the murder of Sir Thomas Overbury, who had interfered with her ambitions as well as her love life.
