Meera Bai was wife of Raja Bhoj son of Rana Sangha

 
Raja Bhoj died in battle in 1521 in battle against Delhi Sultanate(i think with Babur)
 
Rana Sangha built the Meera temple for her but his other family hated her.
 
Vikramaditya her brother-in-law who became king after Rana Sangha and his sister Uda Bai disliked her. They tried to kill her by giving poison and making her lie on bed of nails etc.
 
There is a famous story saying Akbar as a child king one day listened to a meera bhajan and went to meet her inside chittorgarh fort as a sadhu. After hearing her devotional songs he touched her feet like other devotees and gave her a very costly diamond necklace which he placed at Lord Krishna's feet. After few days the king came to know Mughal emperor came to visit Meera and also presented her a gift. Her family cast aspersions on her character and told her to die. She went to die but Lord saved her and she left for Vrindavan in Mathura.
 
After Udai Singh became King a few years later once his kingdom was settled he sent a delegation requesting her to come back to Chittor. But Meera Bai was scared of the repurcessions because she had suffered a lot. She told she will decide next day and it is said after that day she was never seen in Vrindavan or Dwaraka. Popular belief is it is said she merged with the Krishna idol.
 
So i doubt Maharana Pratap met her at 13-14 years of age as Akbar was King and she lived in his kingdom. So Pratap and his mom could not have met her in Mewar temple. It must be Vrindavan in Mathura or Dwaraka in Gujarat and both were under Akbar's rule.
 


history is bit mixed up above with years. Udai sing becomes king first and then Akbar comes as young king.

Mira Bai was technically never the Queen of Mewar, because her husband Raja Bhoj was not crowned King and died while he was still the Crown Prince.
 
Also Raja Bhoj, Ratan Singh and Vikramaditya were the sons of Rana Sangha's first wife and Uday Singh was the son of his youngest wife.
 
The details regarding Akbar's visit to Meera are confusing. Some say its only a legend and some say that it his historically proven. There is indeed a mention of Akbar visiting Meera (in Chittor not Dwarka) in Ain-e-Akbari, the offical biography of Akbar.
 
Exactly when Akbar visited Meerabai is not known. Some accounts talk about him visiting her while she was still in Mewar and her husband was alive and some talk about Akbar visiting her when she had become a widow.

Mirabai was born into a royal family. Her husband is Raja Bhoj, and the "Ranaji" who is mentioned in her bhajans appears to be Raja Bhoj's brother Vikramaditya. She is the DIL of Rana Sanga. 
Google karke dekha to pataa chala ki Rana Sanga ke do bete the - Raja Bhoj and Udai Singh...but I'm not sure about the accuracy of this info. 

Sirf utna hi pataa hai ki Mirabai is chachi of Pratap...

How are Udai Singh and Raja Bhoj related to each other - brothers or cousins?? Is Vikramaditya also Udai Singh's brother or his cousin??? Isi part mein thoda confusion hai...

Brothers by different mothers. Raja Bhoj was the son by Rana Sangha's first wife and Uday Singh by one of his younger wives.
 
Vikramaditya was the third son, Ratan Singh the second one. Ratan Singh was crowned Rana of Mewar when Rana Sangha and Raja Bhoj died in the battle against Khilji or someone like that...and after Ratan Singh died (he ruled for a very short while too), Vikramaditya became King and he too died, followed by Uday Singh, who ruled and consolidated Mewar for a long time.
