    Fun fact:

    Also after Henry VIII died, Catherine Parr married Jane Seymour's brother.
    Also Anne of Cleves stayed friends with Henry after their divorce, and Henry had been sending her more money than she could possibly ever spend. The only women in court that were before her were his daughters and his wife. Gurl was living her life in a palace in Richmond.

    Actually, it is believed that Anne of Cleves was NEVER ugly. Its actually said that when she was on her way to meet the king who sent her a portrait of himself (in the portrait henry was MUCH MUCH younger), so when she was on her way and staying somewhere for rest HENRY out of nowhere came and kissed her. He wasnt dressed in royal clothing and was surely older, not the henry anne had saw in the portrait. SO henry despised her for that fact

    Despite Henry VII’s tyranny and political maneuvering, he was an extremely loving husband to Elizabeth of York.

Henry VIII’s desire for a loving marriage was inspired by his parents’ relationship.

    Fun Fact:
    Holbein was known for painting accurate portraits, so Anna's portrait would've been closer to what she actually looked like.
    Henry actually dressed up as a peasant, barged in on her, and kissed her.
    Anna, knowing nothing about Henry in the first place, was disgusted and confused.
    Henry, who didn't like how she reacted, came up with the excuse of "She's just ugly" and let her live a fabulous life.
    He actually wished he had kept his marriage with her later in life.

      The "she's ugly" excuse had to be Henry's fragile ego talking after she reacted that way. Based on the portraits, Anne of Cleves was the most attractive out of all his wives imo

    It's kinda funny because the male generically decides the sex of the baby. Because an egg can only carry an x chromosome, whereas a sperm cell can carry both an x and y chromosome (not at once). So it's all Henry's fault he didn't have a son.

    • @daniburke9452
      @daniburke9452 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      It's all about a race to the egg… Shettles found sperm containing a Y chromosome were smaller, would swim faster and have a shorter life span than the sperm containing an X chromosome. Then it depends if she's ovulating at the moment or in a few days. Look up the Shettlers method

    Henry the eighth and his 6 wives,
    A bit of a massacre, you shall find.
    Catherine of Aragorn,
    Brave and steel-willed,
    Couldn't bear a son, so
    was sent to the hills.
    Anne Boleyn,
    So fierce and strong
    Charges of cheating
    so her head was chopped off.
    Jane Seymour,
    The bearer of the son,
    Complications of labour,
    and soon she was done.
    Anne of cleaves,
    The bestest of the lot,
    Henry found her ugly,
    so her freedom was what she got.
    Catherine Howard,
    she was only a child,
    Cheated on Henry,
    so her life was on the line.
    Catherine Parr,
    the last of the six wives,
    Outlived Henry
    and continued her life.
    So who was the worst,
    you might sometimes wonder
    it was Henry the eighth
    a nightmare to ponder.

      A stillbirth is the death of a baby in the womb after week 20 of the mother's pregnancy. The reasons go unexplained for 1/3 of cases. The other 2/3 may be caused by problems with the placenta or umbilical cord, high blood pressure, infections, birth defects, or poor lifestyle choices

    Toward the end of life, Henry became very somber, melancholy, and reflective. I guess no doubt how most of us pass our last hours, - that is, if we have an opportunity. Thinking about gradually losing another chance, to re-live past successes, or wishing that maybe he had done something differently, he I guess began to feel the full reality of how fragile and fleeting time-itself was, Henry wrote of time, " ... is of all losses the most irrecuperable, for it can never be redeemed for no manner price nor prayer ".

    If you're wondering how the Church of England has a history of being so anti-divorce when it was literally formed so Henry could leave Catherine of Aragon, well, technically their marriage was ended in annulment. So, they didn't *technically* divorce in the eyes of the law, 'cause they weren't deemed *technically* married. And yes, it was the same story with Anne of Cleves.
