King Henry VIII is most famous for going through 6 wives. But the king was by no means a serial monogamist. Here are the stories of the women known to have warmed the thoughts and the bed of Henry VIII.
A note on imagery: As these women are not as well known, though just as fascinating, as Henry's wives they have fewer and in some cases no known portraits. As this is a visual medium I have taken creative liberty and used similar images in some cases.

Henry: cheats
Wife: cheats back
Henry: *suprised pikachu face*
Henry: GOODNESS, I SAY! A WHORE BE ITH LIVED WITHIN THE PALACE IS NO WIFE TO THE ROYAL WE!
*meanwhile all mistress are hiding behind the curtains*
Yani_uwu
OFF WITH YOUR HEAD
KATHERINE AND ANNE NEVER EVEN CHEATED-
@@metricallyreducedworm yeah they did
*They looked in the mirror and said "DAMN YOU'RE HOT!"*
Then rumors spread and they lost their head.
Vanilla But he was the KING and right there next to GOD being chosen as king. How dare she?
Henry: *cheats on his wives*
His wives: *get accused of cheating/cheats*
Henry: *”Off with her head.”*
Memcha Laishram Oh my g-
just gotta love that double standard... smh
Totally understandable by modern standards but you also have to comprehend the context. If one of the King's wives were cheating on him, no-one could be sure that a child she gave birth to was actually fathered by the King. So the whole point of a hereditary rule would go out the window. It was an incredibly misogynistic time, double standards were everywhere, in both the nobility and the peasantry.
Hypocritical, but not without reason. If a queen were to commit adultery, it would threaten the legitimacy of potential heirs. Remember, Henry's father was the final winner in a bitter civil war over arguments of legitimacy and who should be the reigning monarch. There is also an important social element regarding the king's power. The king is supposed to be the most powerful man in the country, a representation of the nation's might. For a king to be cuckolded is socially a great blow to their perceived power, and a weakness that can hurt him and by extension the nation. It is a double standard, but it does have it's importance. In fact, one could argue that some of why misogyny is a thing in the first place is the paranoia over the paternity of a child being threatened, back when inheritance and lineage was a vital matter of politics
That’s just the way it was those days.
How dare he behead me while he is having other mistresses
Katherine Howard :/
You should’ve whooped his ass sis
Katherine Howard yasss queeen!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
[screams in Six the musical fan]
@@zoeyap1708 🎵All you wanna do🎵
How dare he behead me while he has other mistresses, to quote my cousin Katherine Howard who is also in this comment section.
Hows the head BoBo?
Well... You played dirty with Katherine of Aragon...
Karma baby...
@@carlosmarcial6201 well, he was hollaing at her, and katherine of Aragon helped her avoid him. So Henry is the bad one here.
Hope you okay, beautiful soul❤
Anne even tho I wanted to snatch your weave wanna meet up with Katherine and the rest of the wives and also I feel bad for you.
There are only five women's names in the 15th century: Anne, Catherine, Mary, Elizabeth, and Jane
Yessss ikr
And Henry married most of them lol
Don’t forget Mary
@@chelseah6110 there is already a mary on the comment
@@arianator7825 oh my bad
Henry :has 12 mistresses
Anne:kisses her brother on cheek
Henry:TREASON!
so Henry basically has a thing for: Catherines, Annes, Janes, Marys and Elizabeths
yeah
but like we're there any other names in Tudor england? like his daughters were Mary and Elizabeth. also Catherine of Aragon's real name was Katerina it was anglicized though
@@caileypangburn8920 other names would be Margaret, Cecily, millicent and agnes
@@caileypangburn8920 Catalina not Katerina
Thomas, George, Edward, William, and Henry concur lol
And Boleyn went out of her way to get away from Henry. She left court. She did not encourage him at all. She didn't want him. She was in love with another man. But She had no choice because he was the king. Jane Seymour, on the contrary, did everything that Anne was accused of doing.
Yes. Ann didnt sleep with him because she wanted to be queen. She had no idea that Henry would go to such lengths to divorce his first wife so he could marry her. She left the court, didnt respond to his letters in the hope that his interest in her would soon stop. But for some reason (maybe the first woman to do so) thses actions only increased his interest in her.
It’s amazing that Anne was reviled as a whore because she REFUSED to have an adulterous affair with the King.
Even Anne´s father was against the union. Contemporary letters writte about the father complaining about the king interest in Anne. He already ruined Mary´s reputation, and broke Anne´s engagement (also impeding her marriage with other men). Is so mad that history remembers them in completelly oposite ways.
Nesseire : Sadly, Anne was in a no win situation. No one dared to criticize the King (whose behavior really was terrible) but no one defended Anne. If she slept with Henry out of wedlock she was “soiled goods” and if she didn’t she was still a witch and a whore because Henry was willing to divorce his wife to marry her.
@@amasion2882 And after all the trouble he lost no time on cheating on her :(
The only reason Henry really is famous is because of his wives, and plus there way better than Henry himself and more interesting
CatherineXOXO yep
CatherineXOXO Of course he did do one or two other little things, such as starting a religion and a religious war, including dissolution of the monasteries, and carrying on wars and diplomacy with his enemies on the continent, uniting England and Wales, and taking the title of King of Ireland, and being intellectual, athletic, charismatic, and interested in music and art, a real all-rounder in his youth. Among other things. If he had had surviving sons as heirs it might have ended well instead of hideously badly.
K Kr, yea I know but I said the wives are the main reason he’s famous and that’s what he gets the most attention for
@@walahiimnotwhite385 you said "the ONLY reason", not "the MAIN reason". Which is bullshit. The reason he was famous was because he was the king of England!
Establishing himself the head of his own church and telling the pope to fuck off made him pretty famous to lol
Henry VIII: Has 6 Wives with 1 unhealthy son
Also Henry VIII: Has a mistress and has a healthy son
Henry VIII: ;-;
FaintIguana Your kind of wrong and kind of right
Yeah, fitzroy died at 17
Kay2472 ;3 and Edward at 15, all of their sons died so young
Edward was in fact quite healthy until
the last year of his life
@@rebeccaartemisia96 not all of them died there are several of who survived
We can all agree I was the best one 💋💅
You deserved better
Queen Elizabeth The II thank u 🥺❤️
Y E S
BAHAHAHHAHAHSHSHA OMFG I LOVE THAT U MADE AN ENTIRE YT PROFILE OF CATHERINE
Yes you were the best Sister in law ❤️
Anne Hastings was the daughter of Katherine Woodville, who was the sister of Elizabeth Woodville, who was the mother of Elizabeth of York, Henry VIII's mother, which means that Henry VIII screwed his cousin
They married their cousins all the time.
@@TawnyC_ ew when did medieval England turn into Kentucky?
@@susannebemis3311 always...
Seems everybody was named Anne, Mary, Catherine or Elizabeth.
They often did this and ment to believing it kept their blood pure and would cause less wars or simply because they thought only a princess can marry a prince that will eventually lead 2 incest
Henry has hundreds of mistresses:
Henry's wife: *cheats*.
Henry: Off with her head!
Katheryn didn't even cheat!!! She was raped by her cousin Thomas Culpeper and when she protested about it, he (Thomas) told the king that SHE was the one who forced him to sleep with her which got the both beheaded
@@miwazzz yeah Kath didn't cheat she was abused by Culpeper and when she tried to tell people about it they didn't believe her bc she was a woman poor girl she was only a child when she was killed
@@miwazzz mhn
They all look similar, guess Henry had a type.
Or portraits back in the days just weren’t accurate
Ackerman They were and they weren't. The likeness was probably pretty close to the real thing, but portraits were often about the equivalent of a filter. Slightly exaggerated to make them look better, but not entirely unrealistic.
Mary and Anne were sisters.
@Ber P. Which one looks sweet and pretty to you? I think the fourth wife, Anne of Cleaves, the one Henry didn't like from the start, is the most attractive of all of his wives. Interestingly, I find his third wife, Jane Seymoore, Henrys favorite wife, and the one he chose to be buried with, the most unattractive of them all! I guess it's true, what they say, there's no accounting for taste!
So, who is pretty, and who is ugly to you? Please, do share! 😊
@Ber P. Lol! Retired Greek priests? LMBO! That cracked me up! But, I tend to agree!
Must be terrible not to have a choice in romantic matters.Often times it meant life ,death or imprisonment.
Henry Fitzroy wasn't the "firstborn son" of Henry VIII. That was Prince Henry, the second child Katharine of Aragon had by the King. He was by all accounts a strong, healthy child, but he died suddenly at almost two months of age. Henry Fitzroy came along later.
Tilly Divine you are incorrect. Her pronunciations were fine. I listened closely, expecting to hear atrocities, but none were forthcoming.
@Tilly Divine hahahaha
@Tilly Divine Wow being rude about it huh?. 🤔😑.
Prince Henry died in 2 months , Fitz lived for years . Do the maths
He do you count him as a son if he died as an infant not even as a child
@@delete.2542 It's not rude. It's a perfectly valid complaint by the OP. This isn't the first time that the narrator has done this and it won't be the last time. Clearly putting in the effort isn't a priority for the narrator.
He did have a son with Katherine of Aragon, he died as a baby.
Katherine was pregnant six times. Two children died young. Mary was the only one who survived to adulthood.
Six fans: *See, we're pulling what you call a power move.*
Alex what are you doing here
I think Alex was as six fan before it was cool
I knew Henry got around but man! He got around like gossip
he was such a ho!
@@susannebemis3311 he was a f#@k boy! His motto was, don't hate the player, hate the game! No, not really. But, it could've been!! 😂
And these are the ones who are known! No telling how many one night stands he had over those years
Lol
He was build like a bag of potato
chips
When he got older
Whoever painted Anne Hastings’ portrait is pretty talented; I feel like I’ve met lots of women who resemble her, so it’s not hard to picture what she most likely would’ve looked like in real life from the portrait.
Didn't Hans Holbein paint all those portraits?
You’ll probably not believe me, but I found that undated portrait of Katherine Woodville and added it to her Wikipedia page.
Congratulations on a good job.
Why wouldn't we believe you? Do people really lie about such things?
Um somehow someway I am related to Henry the 8th. dna contribitors on Wiki genealogy page per my great grandfather showed related to the guy. now curious and will order the ancestry dna test.
@@kathypetersen4694 i think almost every person with european ancestry is somewhat related to english royalty
game_of_reign game_of_reign mailed back ancestry dna test yesterday didn't do it to see that kind of thing but thought huh! Interesting. Shall maybe see that little piece of info if Ancestry provides that. Did the test to see relatives on bio fathers side. I only have a name. Want to hopefully see a photo of him. No interest in meeting.
Them: *Mentions Bessie (on the bass) Blount*
Me: AND EVEN THOUGH YOU’VE HAD ONE SON WITH SOMEONE WHO DON’T OWN A WEDDING RING-
YES! Six!!
YASSSSSSS! (Also, I hate how some people mistake that line as Anne)
NO MATTER WHAT I HEARD
(keep it going)
no
legit me r/madlads
Elizabeth Woodville is Henry's maternal grandmother, so does this mean that Henry's first mistress is his own great-aunt? Awkward. 😬
Shimonas not great aunt, but first cousins once removed
His mother's cousin
he beheaded 2 of his wives even though he had 13 side mistresses and both of them were side mistresses like wtf
Emily's Way his wives didn’t give him good enough head so he took theirs 😔
@Someone 333 thank you! it’s me as a purple Howard but I didn’t draw it, a friend of mine did, she doesn’t have social media but she has a Pinterest, it’s in my bio
Oy! The mistresses fared better than the queens.
I just think of Six the whole time
I was just talking about King Henry VIII to my uncle. Perfect timing to watch this video!
What were you telling your uncle about him. I'm just curious, and nosy enough to ask! Lol! But, feel free to blow off my question if it's any trouble. ☺
@@reneenayfabnaynay5679
It's no trouble at all! I was explaining the life of King Henry VIII. I was explaining his asention to the throne (due to the death of his brother, Arthur) and I explained the lives of all his wives, what happened to them (Divorced, Beheaded, Died, Divorced, Beheaded, Survived...)
I find Henry VIII so interesting! I don't know why, I've always been interested in the monarchy's history. Right now I could name every single ruler in order from King Henry VIII to Queen Elizabeth II! But maybe I'm just crazy lol
@@nyleahjones9619 wow, in another life, we could've been best friends! I've been interested in the Tudors ever since I was a little girl, and heard the story of Anne Boleyn!
@@reneenayfabnaynay5679
I've always found the idea of a Monarchy fascinating. We all used to worship Kings and Queens like Gods, even if they were tyrannical or just unfit to rule. I was probably from medieval Europe in a past life! 😄
@@nyleahjones9619 me too, girl! Me too! Lol!
They had a list of 10 names to chose from.
That’s an extremely unfortunate name.. poopincourt 😂 I’m dying
That's not the correct pronunciation. The host of this video has no idea how to pronounce French names.
Susan Stenson yes, but maybe it was a mistake! I understand you are trying to help explain as nice as possible! And I applaud you for that! (Pls Dont bully me for telling u this ;-;)
@@Shan_Dalamani neither does 90% of non-french speakers
@@Shan_Dalamani I noticed that as well.
I guarantee you that Popincourt is NOT pronounced POOPincourt. Even in French it wouldn’t be pronounced that way, as it would have to be spelled “Pou...” and not “Po...”
Baume is pronounced like the word balm without the L.
And Blount is pronounced exactly how it looks. blOWnt.
These names (excluding Baume, as it is a directly French name) may have been brought over during the Norman invasion, but they were thoroughly anglicized by this point, and surely wouldn’t have been pronounced with a French accent in the Court of England.
I know it’s nit-picky, but my 10 years of speaking the French language the and study of French and English History are cringing at these pronunciations.
However, all your info about these women is so much deeper than a lot of historians (or armchair) go. I really appreciate your willingness to share!
Although he did some terrible things I always think of him when I hear What Child IsThis at Christmas time. He didn't write the lyrics but he wrote the music. I think it's so beautiful. He was an evil genius.
The original tune was called Greensleeves which was said to have been written about Anne Boleyn.
I just found your channel and am so thrilled because we have several of the same interests: Disney, Addams Family, and tales of royalty?!? It's a one stop shop for me =)
I was under the impression that Henry FitzRoy was so named because Henry didn't acknowledge him and Bessie wasn't having it so she named him that to tell the world who her son was.
It mean Henry the son of kings, very clever lol
Mary Boleyn’s daughter Catherine is my ancestor on my Dad’s side.
Woah😮
How in the world do you trace back that long without dna from the said person?
Mustlovebooks15 I don’t know how it’s done, but my aunt was able to trace our family back to William Bradford, who came over to America on the Mayflower and wrote up the Magna Carta. There is also suspicion that we are related to the Queen of England, but I haven’t heard anymore on that.
@@Mustlovebooks15 because the uk churches keep detailed records of all marriages and christenings and births and deaths. Ive been able to trace my own family of my mothers fathers side, the Hulmston name can be traced back to 1660 in cheshire england, throught time our name spelling changed slightly, it was orginally Hulmstone. Using the birth and marrige records you can trace your family liniage.
@@MewSage86 You do not know your history very well. To be truthful, the Mayflower arrived in the New World four hundred years after the signing of the Magna Carta by King John. Instead of the Magna Carta do you mean the Mayflower Compact? That is more logical.
I’m most ever this surprised. I saw Henry’s mistresses for Cathrine first hand. I don’t blame anyone but Henry. Shame on
Him.
Hey Catherine how you doin
@@anneboleyn2236 hello Anne! I am doing well!
@@mikaylawilliams1651 Glad to hear!
@@anneboleyn2236 thank you! How about you?
@@mikaylawilliams1651 I'm doing good thank you for asking !
Anne did not want to be queen, she didn't think he would propose. She did not send Mary away to help her become queen. This is riddled with misinformation. She sent her from court after she married in secret, not before.
Katherine and Anne is literally in the comment section 😭✌️
and me as well-
I came to the conclusion that Henry had a thing for Catherines (Katherines) and for Boleyns and their relatives...
Damn. King Henry VIII was THICC! I guess it's from all those huge feasts he consumed on a daily basis.
Not in a good way
Chauntel Shannon he was FAT
Chauntel, Henry only started to gain weight after he'd been in a jousting accident that almost killed him. I believe he was in his forties when that happened. Before that, from every written source that remains, Henry was an exceptionally good looking man, with an exceptionally, fine, and very athletic physique. Or so they say.
R Pigeon FabNayNay damn i would throw myself into him instead of him taking me
@@reneenayfabnaynay5679 every picture I've seen of Henry is not exactly what I would call good looking, even when he was young. Also I know that being fat was considered an attractive trait back then because it meant you were wealthy because of how much you could buy to eat.
*Honestly, Henry VIII is the embodiment of Zeus. Change my mind.*
Oh nooo....you left me hanging for part 2!! Lol!! I found your channel just recently, and I just wanted to let you know that I am absolutely enjoying your content! I've watched a lot of your videos and have found that you have some details that I've never heard in other videos, like some of Henry's mistresses I'd never heard of! Other than Mary Boleyn and Bessie Blount, I hadn't heard of very many others. So I truly appreciate the details you put into these. You Rock, and can't wait til part 2!!!!
I don't know how much of Mary Boelyn's reputation was based on truth...but then as now, men often brag about having possessed the women who reject them. Besmirching a woman's reputation has always been the kind of petty revenge that appeals to a certain kind of man. I highly doubt that her behavior, given her family's position and ambitions, was as loose as Francis said. A young woman's virtue was a valuable resource for her family and she would have been reminded of this constantly.
teslagirl1 : Good point. However a woman didn’t have to be literally guilty of sexual impropriety, just rumors (proved or not) could socially destroy a woman.
@@amasion2882 My point, exactly! And court, just about any court, was a snake pit of ambition. Francis starts a rumor and rivals of Mary or Mary's family gleefully spread it. Also...beauty like hers would cause envy among other women, so her defenders wouldn't have been as numerous as her detractors.
Some historians believe that Mary reputation might have been exaggerated to some degree, because she was able to get remarried.
I love history and this is one of the best channels I have come across hand down.
Bessie was my 12th great grandmother, ❤️ what a mistress
Wow! Sounds so delightful to know about your ancestors so well
*She was a cousin to Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard and a second cousin to Jane Seymour.*
I swear to the heavens, that man was obsessed with that family.
I’m actually related to Nicholas. I was looking through my family tree and saw him on there so I looked him up and found out what happened and who he was and I was like WOW 😂
People of that era tried so hard to keep a good reputation but kept sleeping with everybody smh
Honestly, it sounds better to be Henry VII's mistress than his wife. You usually end up wealthy and you have a more likely chance of not losing your head.
I’m a new subscriber, and just wanted to tell you how much I love your channel!
The name Claude for a woman is pronounced "Clode," very soft.
God, I love your content, They always make me so interested in history. Keep up the good work ! 👍
great but if you want accurate accounts then subscribe to the Boleyn files because this stuff is all conjecture and heresay.
You make great historical and interesting videos.
The photos are 👍🏽, the information is 👍🏽, the length is 👍🏽, the speed is 👍🏽, your enunciation is 👍🏽, and your voice is so pleasant! Kudos!
Can’t wait for part 2!!
Great video.. Can not wait for part 2..
So basically what I'm getting from this is that it was okay for Henry to sleep with as many women as he wanted, but if one of his wives or lovers did the same, oh hell no, bitch, it's either banishment from court or execution for you! I don't know why this pisses me off so much, but it does.
Great topic.. Please do more royal mistresses
4:03 I relate to the annoyed old priest guy sitting down way to much and the tiny man behind the women too on a spiritual level
Katherine Brandon is my favorite too only because she was guardian of Catherine parr’s lost daughter Mary Seymour
It has helped me to improve my english a lot.
Thanks.
Great explanation.
Love these videosssssss ☺
Anne Boleyn was not a mistress, she refused his advances till he married her... so not an adulterer although Henrys act to rid his ex-wife was cruel but in them days you could not refuse a king. Annes own sister did however become his mistress and again she was pushed to accept him even by her own family. Anne was very sensible to stand firm yet with such a tyrant she still lost her head!
Absolutely fascinating, I am obsessed with Tudor history and especially Henry the eighth.
When you have so many wives you need two parts
I’m a new subscriber and I really enjoy your channel. ❤️❤️❤️
I love the videos you do on Kings and queens. ! Always so interesting, I especially love this one , EVERYTHING TUDOR ❤️❤️
Hi Lindsey I would love for you to sometime in the future do a video series profiling Royal mistresses of European Kings like you're doing for Queens of Europe.Some of my favorite Royal Mistresses are Nell Gwyn, Madame Du Barry,Madame de Montespan,Madame De Pompadour etc.
Anne and Henry were related seeing as she was Elizabeth woodville's neice and Elizabeth was Henry's grandmother 🤷🏽♀️but incest was big back then
You are making amazing documentarys!! However you said Wiltshire wrong. Thanks for making great content!
Your videos are so awesome 👏
Is it weird that I now want to see a documentary about Mary Boleyn? And that I was cheering for her when the video got to how she actually ended up in a happy marriage at the end?
Claire Ridgway of the Anne Boleyn & Tudor files has done several videos about Mary, and it's VERY interesting to see how little of what is typically said of Mary is backed up by any reliable, contemporary sources...
Beth&793 Thank you!
I love these royalty videos! Very interesting and informative
Funny thing I am doing genealogy for my mother's family and her line is directly related to every person in this video! Lol even by DNA. We live in Arkansas and I'm broke.
Nah that’s crazy Mary found a decent man and sat down and lived her life....and her sister sent her a gold cup and a little money...then got murked. lollll WHAT
Interesting I look forward to part 2
Very interesting to learn about his other mistresses
A lot of Elizabeths, Catherines, Marys, Annes, and Janes/Joan. Why were those names so popular? The one standout was Etienette.
popular names in mid evil england 💁🏼♂️
Good job, Lindsey, on getting a better? Probably her? Image of Catherine Howard, instead of that picture that was used forEVER that was supposed to be her. That one is no young girl.🤷♀️. And thumbs UP getting this information. I read a LOT about the Tudors, and you really fleshed them out for me. Fantastic research. Learned something new, and as always, your illustrations are wonderful! This is exactly why I patreon you👍. I’d heard of Anne Hastings in passing, but Wowzer. Mary Boleyn, older child, possibly. She has a Tudor look about her. The son, Naw.
I’m related to anne Boleyn and Mary elizbeth I’m Mary’s like 14th granddaughter
Anne wanted to be queen? What? No way, she was trying to keep the king away, initially she was just protecting herself. She knew how dangerous the game was. When Henry started to court her even harder, she had no other option than to fight for what he wanted, she stared to believe she's maybe the chosen one. But initially, I seriously doubt she wanted to be queen and that was why she rejected Henry's proposal to become his main mistress.
patricia slauf : Given Anne’s reputation for intelligence, she likely believed she was a passing infatuation to Henry and if she fended him off long enough he’d lose interest and leave her free for a respectable marriage. At some point, Henry must have said or done something that opened her heart. She trusted him and believed he genuinely loved her. She was also probably emotionally tired of fending him off and having to deal with resentment and jealousy from his wife and her supporters.
Anne saw her sister “pumped and dumped” by Henry. She wanted better than that for herself.
Also, Henry was NOT the obese mean old man he became AFTER Anne’s death. He was in his 30’s, tall, athletic, good humored and highly romantic and seductive. He was a King. The most important, powerful and richest man in the land. If he was single, and Anne had no other love interest, she would have accepted him happily.
She should have made Henry Viii make a good match for her, and a title instead of being queen. Her daughter was still declared a bastard,and her reputation was still ruin. But if she settled for a title for herself, and any kid she had with the king she would have lived.
“When he was 23 and she was only 14, they began a love affair”
FBI OPEN UP
SO JANE, CATHERINE H, ANNE BOLEYN AND ONE OF HIS MISTRESSES WERE ALL RELATED?!
guess so ?
With this many mistresses I wasn’t surprised he had to have at least have one illegitimate child or three if Mary’s children are also his.
I wanted to know about Henry's son and now I was a movie about it
Queen Catherine had a viable male with her second pregnancy. That son, also named Henry, died at just under 2 months old from either an intestinal disorder, or maybe some other infection. Henry FitzRoy was the second born son of Henry VIII.
Anne Hastings was never Henry's mistress. The woman in the portrait is correct, but she is Lady Anne Stafford, daughter of Catherine Woodville and Henry Stafford, Duke of Buckingham.
I can't seem to find part 2, is it posted yet?
As a woman, I’m so happy and grateful I was born today in America. It’s not perfect but Jesus Christ.
Can u do a video on Queen Victoria
Check out my video on the Queens of England. A series on Queen V's children is coming soon!
Oh do I love these but if you have a side conversation for even 30 seconds you miss 3 marriages, 10 births and a death! Lol gotta pay attention attention!!
Please may you share any notes you have? ❤😂 I’m so sorry I love you’re content 😌
Because of the status of Henry as King, these women basically had no choice 😓. Plus he became a creep. Notice that those who got away managed to live long and happy lives afterwards.
Anne Hasting sisters informed Anne's husband about her affair with the king (not Compton) and her husband took her away from court and put her in a nunnery as a punishment. We don't know what happened to her after that and Henry Vlll was so angry he sent Anne's sister away from court as well. Please get the details right.
She doesn't even know there is 0 evidence of Mary Boleyn ever leaving England, let alone become French King's mistress.
@@janehaylay1152 Yes there is if you know which books to read. She and her sister Anne went to wait on Queen Claude at the French Court and for some reason Mary was eventually sent back to England and her father got her into the English court to wait on Queen Ctaherine of Aragon. But they originally were sent to France in the train of Henry Vlll's sister Mary when she went to marry the old French king. Mary asked for those two girls specifically because Anne spoke French. Mary Boleyn traveled with her in her train and Anne Boleyn crossed over from Flanders where she had been at Margaret of Austria's court as a kind of finishing school student. Then when the old French king died and Queen Mary was widowed the Boleyn sisters were asked to stay on at the new King Francis I's court to wait on his wife Claude.
Jane Popincourts affair with the French noble was by no means brief. They were deeply in love even though he was married. When he returned to France a few years later she eventually went to him and they were lovers for years, if not a lifetime.
Your channel is like TMZ from the olden days...but all true🧐
I swear the first mistress looks like a character in Dracula
I'm surprised Henry didn't divorce Catherine of Aragon and just marry the woman that gave him a son he said that he was his father
Cause by that time he fell in love with anne boyleyn
King Henry VIII and Mary Boleyn are my 14th great grandparents.
Anne wasn’t trying to manipulate her way to being Queen. She didn’t want Henry and tried to get away from him until she realized that wasn’t an option.
Can someone please tell me the painting at 2:11?
Whaaaaaaat? This guy had time for misstres? With his 6 wives?
He had 6 wives actually.
The king was so ugly,only his power and money got him all these wives snd other women.
@@angelenavest9417 He was actually fairly handsome in his younger days.
@@kellydewitte6289 yes,your right. I corrected it. 👍
yeah i found time
