What Happened To The BODY Of Catherine Howard?!
What Happened To The BODY Of Catherine Howard?!
However, the victims within the chapel extend beyond the queens, as many more who lost their lives during the Tudor monarchy are interred here. Within these hallowed walls, secrets are unveiled, and Catherine's story does not conclude with her execution on the orders of King Henry VIII. Instead, it takes a more sinister turn.
Even before her death, Catherine was subjected to treatment that showcased the king's lack of affection for her. When compared to Anne Boleyn's death, both brutal in nature, Anne was afforded a swift execution by a French swordsman, while Catherine faced beheading by a blunt axe. Anne's scaffold was adorned with luxurious velvet and expensive fabrics, while Catherine's was merely covered in straw and hay to absorb her blood. Catherine was denied even a cushion to kneel on, and her royal titles were stripped from her before she left Hampton Court Palace.
Catherine's ladies in waiting shrouded her body in black cloth and carried it into the chapel for burial, but there was no grand ceremony, no ornate chest for her interment. Instead, she was unceremoniously cast into a grave without a funeral.
However, the cruelty didn't end there. What followed was sadistic and inhumane. Allegedly, when Catherine was buried and wrapped in her cloak, a substantial amount of quicklime was callously shoveled into her grave. It is believed that Henry VIII ordered this action. The consequence of this was the gradual dissolution of Catherine's body and remains, reducing them to near nothingness. It was almost as if someone wished for all traces of Catherine Howard to be obliterated from the earth, as if the king wanted her memory and history erased as if she had never existed.
During the reign of Queen Victoria, the chapel where Catherine Howard was interred underwent significant renovations. Queen Victoria was greatly disturbed to discover that the chapel was being used as a meeting room, a purpose she found wholly inappropriate. Consequently, she ordered extensive restoration work for the chapel. The small church was substantially improved, as Queen Victoria believed it was not suitable for its intended purpose, nor was it befitting for the burial of royalty or other high-ranking individuals who rested there.
During these restoration efforts, the chapel's floor needed to be lifted, prompting builders to exhume the bodies of those laid near the altar and the high chancel. Among those whose remains were uncovered were individuals who had been executed within the walls of the Tower of London. Skilled doctors managed to identify some of the bodies, including that of Anne Boleyn and several others, such as Margaret Pole and Lady Rochford, who had been executed shortly after Catherine Howard.
Once identified, these bodies were carefully placed in boxes and relocated for safekeeping while the renovations proceeded. However, what perplexed the builders was the absence of any remains that could be attributed to Catherine Howard. It had been assumed that she was buried in close proximity to the high altar due to her societal status. Typically, in churches, the most significant burials are beneath or near the altar. The absence of Catherine Howard's remains strongly suggests that quicklime was used to accelerate her decomposition after her execution.
In close proximity to the resting place of Margaret Pole, the Countess of Salisbury, several eroded bones were discovered, possibly due to the effects of lime, but they could not be conclusively linked to Catherine Howard. To this day, Catherine's remains remain undiscovered.
Nonetheless, inside the Chapel of Saint Peter ad Vincula, next to Anne Boleyn's resting place, Catherine's cousin, there lies a plaque displaying her coat of arms and bearing her name. Quicklime, a potent chemical, would have expedited the decomposition process if it were used on Catherine's body, leaving little trace of her remains.

I think the both woman would like on their backs, the woman on d top legs would be spread wide apart and hook between d handles during sex, the woman below would be performing oral sex wen he pulls out whenever .....He was a scopio, Scorpio are the rulee of the reproductive organs reason his high sex drive
‘One of his mistresses was that of Daisy Warwick’. Eh?
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahha
In both temperate and tropical climates, quicklime does not accelerate the decomposition process, but in a tropical climate it can inhibit the activity of entomofauna and the odor of decomposition. Quicklime can actually preserve bodies....
Anne Boleyn didn't have a funeral either and not even a coffin. This had been overlooked in the haste to get rid of Anne, and the Constable of the Tower was busy with other state prisoners and he was given no instructions about a coffin so an old arrow chest was quickly found and Anne's weeping ladies gently wrapped her body and put her in it and carried it to the chapel.
How fitting that God denied Henry's greatest desire. No male heir of Henry's lived long enough to reign. God will not be mocked.
Not true. His son, Edward reigned from 1547-1553. Not very long, but he did have a male heir.
I don’t believe Henry ever loved anyone except maybe Catherine of Aragon in the early years of their marriage. By the time Anne B came into the picture, Henry was such a full blown narcissist he could never really love anyone
Hi, awesome live history video I enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing have a great weekend see you next video 😊
he also didn’t really have “many” of his 6 wives killed - unless you count two as many.
Henry was diabetic.
King Henry Viii I do not believe he had syphilis.
Henry Vlll never had syphilis neither was he ever treated for it. None of his wives or sexual partners contracted it from him either. And he had fewer mistresses than most kings at that time. He usually took a mistress when his wives were pregnant, since sex was not allowed during pregnancy, according to the church. When syphilis was advanced the sufferers had large ulcers on their faces which couldn't be hidden. Some had their noses rot off and wore false noses. The only treatment was Mercury and it smelled so bad you could smell it from the next room. Henry Vlll was never treated with Mercury. Modern doctors have checked his meticulously kept medical records and all the treatments he had for various disorders. It is more likely that Henry was diabetic, developing the disease after his jousting and other accidents kept him from exercising, which in his youth he did vigorously every day, So he gained weight but did not adjust his rich diet and the gallons of ale and wine would not have helped. Sure he had a ulcerated leg which never healed and which gave him great pain. He also suffered terrible headaches as a result of jousting accidents and one riding accident where he was plunged head first into a ditch and his men had to pull him out. Francis l did have syphilis and died from it. He was much more promiscuous than Henry Vlll, with many mistresses plus visits to brothels regularly.
Bessie Blount was not a lady in waiting to Anne of Cleves, she was lady in waiting to Katherine of Aragon. And when she bore the King a son which Henry celebrated at court. Katherine of Aragon was deeply hurt but hid her pain from everyone. Get your facts straight please.
She was Anne of cleaves lady in waiting too for a short time before her death
@@CrownedHistory "Cleves"
Dirty Bertie is the best nick name ever. LOL
The top part is fairly self explanatory but the bottom part remains a mystery as the purpose of the seat was to make sex easy for a corpulent man.
Henry: “anne,I want to make you my number one whore.“ Anne “your majesty I don’t think so.” it is said that anne may have clinched it with Henry by doing it the French way, which she learned during her “internship“ at the French Court.
I thought they were going to give detailed instructions as to Patick Euler positions and uses of this very interesting rocking chair or as they say “love seat.”

Nicely done. Thank you for the detailed video.
Can't believe u got it wrong agree with other comments , it was katherine of argon , NOT historical factual right
It was both
I'm glad that my memory of history was proven correct by the comment that said Bessie Blount was Henry VIII mistress during his first marriage to Katherine of Aragon and was her lady in waiting not that of Anne of Cleves. She was his mistress and gave birth to his son during his first marriage before Anne Boleyn came along. It's really hard to trust in the information given here when such a significant error like this is made.
She was briefly the lady in waiting to Anne of cleves too before her death
You’re implying that tuberculosis is a genetic disease?? no.
Bessie Blount lady in waiting of Anna of Cleves?? no 🙂
It was Katherine of Aragon 😅 Henry Fitzroy was born while he was married to his first wife… he died before the birth of Edward.
@christyb "no?" Wanna expand on that? I have no idea what point ur trying to make here...
Bessie Blount was historically known as The mistress before Anne Boleyn, wasn't even on the scene by Anna of Cleves
How did the chair work? I couldn’t figure it out.
Neither could I!
Oh I was watching this hoping to figure it out. Truthfully, due to all the inbreeding and hereditary issues, there are many royals who are intersex. I wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t have sex organs at all. They used radical IVF even way back. Blood method.
The cabal is in Amsterdam not Paris
I’ve seen it. When you see the actual chair, it suddenly makes sense.
There was even sexual deviants back then..
Nothing modern about what he got up to.
Now we know where Andrew gets it from.
Daddy was no saint to mummy Liz
Andrew? What about King Charles and Camilla?? I'm just wondering why Camilla couldn't be a lady and let Charles go since he was married to Diana ... but instead they snuck around behind Diana's back.. I would have just bowed out gracefully without acting desperate like Camilla..
Love this❤ Thank you🥰
Thank you!
0:04 not really when you have: Chuckles and his pal Saville, getting the mistress and the throne thanks to Mummy changing the rules that once prohibited this, for her Speshul Boy. Randy Andy and Island Boi Hawwy, his yacht girl wife and his partying with the likes of Diddler and acting like effing grifters with titles and thus permission from the Monarchy. 😂
Your last statement is incorrect. Harry and William were at a memorial celebration for Diana. Diddy showed up because he likes to rub shoulders with the famous. There are photos of both W & H with Diddy. Neither brother is connected to him. Actually Catherine was a yacht girl. There are photos. Meghan was never a yacht girl.
😮 what? Catherine a yacht girl? True?
@@angelaferrante7234 No, its all lies. The Princess of Wales was correctly raised by loving parents. As to Edward V11 His private life was his own business. The chair was designed because being so overweight he and his partner could not achieve satisfaction. Also, Queen Alexander personally invited his Last mistress into his private rooms to say farewell.
@@Gaeliclass Your Statement is incorrect! Meghan was a yacht girl, there are photo's to prove!!!

Great channel
Thank you!
Its in Amsterdam and not in Paris
One of his many mistresses is a grandmother or great grandmother to Queen Camilla.
Another mistress herself…….please Queen ⁉️. More treacherous to getting her needs met.
Imagine that
George IV became king on 29 January 1820, immediately upon the death of his father George III. The coronation on 19 July 1821 did not make him king.
He had the doors of Westminster Abbey shut in his wife's face because he hated her so much!
Horrible accent.
Had to listen to the first part twice! Did she really say that Anne Boleyn had Mary?! Oops!
You said Ann Boleyn gave birth to Bloody Mary not Elizabeth the first???? 😲
I was just about to comment the same thing 😂
Me, too....
Me three
Not Henry Vii and Catherine, but Henry viii. Don't you moronic people proof before you post? All about the click bait. You tube is so super sensitive about fake information. But out right lies are OK. Please let it become cliche soon.
I'm sure this has been corrected in the comments, but Mary the first was actually Cathrine and Henry's only living child, Anne Bolyne gave birth to Elizabeth the first.
Catherine of Aragon was Mary the 1st mother, not Anne Boleyn. Anne Boleyn gave birth to Elizabeth 1st many years after her half sister Mary was born.
Right. How disappointing of this video.
How did they not know this. I'm born and raised in America and the mid west at that, and I know that.

It's so aggravating there's no reliable art for you to source. This happens so often in historical videos. Too bad the camera wasn't invented back then! Until Holbein, we can only guess which portrait is closest.
