I don't have info on the "nursery", but according to Andre Maurois's "A History of France", ( 1968 U.S. edition, page 132) Henry II complained that he was badly treated by the Spanish. H enry and his brother were held hostage as a result of a treaty his father, Francis I, negotia ted while imprisoned in Spain. In exchange for his freedom Francis agreed to allow the Empor er the Duchy of Burgundy. Henry and his brother were held as hostages to guarantee the agree ment. But after Francis I's release, the Burgundians refused to become part of the Empire . So Henry's grandmother, Louise of Savoy, and the Emporer's sister, Archduchess Margaret ne gotiated in 1529 "The Ladies Peace" (The Peace of Cambrai) which set the ransom for the freed om of the two princes at two million gold ecus, which the French paid.
There was obviously bad blood between the Valois and Habsburgs. One clause in the Cambrai tr eaty required Francis I to marry the Emporer's sister, Eleanor, which the King did in 1530 . Under the circumstance this proved to be an unhappy marriage.
Maurois writes that as king, Henry II of France, due to the bad treatment he received durin g his childhood captivity, hated the Spanish and especially Charles V.
