'''Anna Tronds''' (later dubbed Anna Rustung) (born somewhere around 1540; died 1607 or later) was a [[Norway|Norwegian]] noblewoman. Anna was a member of the distinguished family that has been dubbed by historians as Rustung, which has links to the Norwegian Galtung family. In the English-language countries, she is famous for her affair with [[James Hepburn, 4th Earl of Bothwell]]. |

==Background== |
|||
Anna was the eldest daughter of [[Christoffer Trondsen Rustung|Kristoffer Trondson]], a famous 16th century Norwegian admiral and nobleman. After 1536, Kristoffer was appointed to serve King [[Frederick II of Denmark and Norway|Frederick II]] as Danish Royal Consul in Copenhagen. Kristoffer took his Norwegian family to Copenhagen while working as Danish consul. |

==Skottefruen== |
|||
Anna was married to Bothwell, by [[handfasting]], while he was doing business in Denmark. He married another woman while married to her, while on mission. Frustrated and unhappy, she left to return to her family, which had returned to Norway where she was known as "Skottefruen" (The Scottish Lady). Shortly thereafter, Bothwell proceeded to marry Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots, after having allegedly murdered her husband, Darnley. |
