      Parr didn't participate or condone her husband's sexual abuse. She believed her husband was just playful with elizabeth. When she caught elizabeth in her husband's lap she sent her away. Don't forget husbands cheating on their wives with their stepdaughters who were only 13 or 14 wasn't so severely frowned upon.

    People really think that she was just the boring old nursemaid whose only acconplishment was restoring Mary and Elizabeth to the succession (they weren't even named as princesses, they were just guaranteed rights to inherit the throne). Meanwhile, she presided over a turbulent court, defended herself against a king who was falling into madness, protected herself from the political machinations of her religious enemies, ruled over England as regent while Henry was away, translate the Bible into English so the common folk could read it, and was literally the first women to ever publish a book under her own name in England.
    I'd say her only true failure in her tenure as queen was not being able to save Anne Askew, but she was on mortal danger and was almost arrested and executed herself in what was at the time one of the worst political disasters faced by reformists in the Tudor court, and yet she drove right through her enemies and saw a great many of them humiliated. That's true female strength. She is so much more than what people make out of her. A pity she wasn't part of the regents that ruled England for her stepson and endes up dying suddenly in 1548. I have no doubt she would have made a wonderful ruler of England had she gotten the chance.

    • @KL-ki8db
      @KL-ki8db 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +13

      Catherine Parr did rule as regent when Henry went to war. Anne Askew’s death wasn’t exactly her responsibility especially since roughly the same time, Henry has sent for Catherine’s arrest following her argument with him. It would not be wise to upset him further. The only true failing I see of her is to fall for Thomas Seymour, one of the biggest red flags in terms of bachelors in Tudor times except for probably Henry VIII and Thomas Culpeper.

    • @lilymarinovic1644

      "JUST guaranteed their rights to inherit the throne"? As if that wasn't way way more important than merely having the title "Princes" or anything else? The inheritance rights were what gave Mary and Elizabeth real influence and power. And for that matter protection - far fewer people are going to plot against someone who may very well shortly be sovereign!

    Honestly, when I think of Catherine Parr, I often wonder how she felt in her very final days. Did she know that she was going to die? Did she realise that she'd never see her daughter grow up? Was she heartbroken over the fact that she finally got the marriage and family she always wanted yet didn't get to fully enjoy? Did she look back on her life and feel accomplished or regretful? Or was she just delirious from the fever and couldn't even fully process that the end was near? (And I'm talking about her own personal feelings about it, not what we think of her today, in hindsight.)
    Her life wasn't as tragic as the Katherine she named after, but her end was still very sad...

    Catherine Parr was truly remarkable in so many ways. She wrote books and treatises on the Reformation and Protestantism sometimes at odds with her third husband, HenaryVIII with whom no one disagreed unless they had a death wish. She had to burn everything she had written to save herself and then talk to her husband in public to dissuade him from her beliefs. Joelie Richardson's interpretation of that confrontation is brilliant in "Tudor"'s final episode. Even the Queen of England wasn't allowed to think for herself and make public comments on topics not suited to her "diseased state" that is, being a woman. Historically, she's one of my very favourite people, and not simply because she is my 17th? great aunt. She had steel in her spine and knew how to survive in 16th-century England: to marry well. It really upsets me to know that the love of her life was a deceitful cad. He was grooming the then Princess Elizabeth because he wanted to marry her. No wonder Elizabeth I never married with men like Thomas Seymour as the only choices available to her. I empathize on a personal level because the love of my own life turned out to be a rotten, two-timing narcissist. In the 50 years since, my heart has still not mended from my encounters with him though I did marry and now have grandchildren. In a way, I'm actually happy for Queen Catherine that she died. Better that than living with heartbreak for the rest of her life. For me, it came to a head when we were both married to other people and he still wanted to bed me with my year-old child 10 feet away. To him, I was a notch on the bedpost, one that had refused him twice already. I had enough affection for his then-wife to tell her what had happened as I knew how much she wanted children with him. I also knew what kind of man he was, and still is, being now married to his fourth wife. His first wife, the lady in question, dropped him as soon as I told her of my non-relationship with her husband. I didn't want her to have his children in a broken marriage. She was heartbroken, as I was, but that was Riker's pattern: to take what he wanted and the consequences be damned. I may be the only woman ever to turn him down considering all the times he asked and was refused. That thought is cold comfort though for all the damage he did. What was Seymour thinking? Did he really delude himself that he could have a queen for a wife? Unlike my heartbreak, Catherine's met with a tragic end. Seymour was beheaded and Catherine died, my guess is more of heartbreak than childbirth. She had to find out the hard way what her true love really was. My own husband never knew I was in love with his cousin, not himself, but they both turned out to be cut of the same cloth, utter narcissism. Queen Catherine Parr has my deepest empathy, not just for the time in which she was born but for whom she was forced to marry.

    Catherine Parr was both icon but also a person who did foolish things. I still can't get over the fact that Catherine remarry but her 4th husband is his stepson Edward VI uncle who we know that before Henry caught Catherine's beauty were hunting someone with money and that person is Catherine and after Henry died Catherine let her guard down and remarried without even checking probably that her 4th husband is her stepson uncle and the brother of the regent and if you connect together, you would know that his reasons for marrying you may not be for love also i pity for Mary (Catherine's child) her mother died and your father were pursuing your stepsister because he is power hungry only for him to met in the chopping board. If i am Catherine were isekaid (a term for modern people possessing someone from different timeline or world) i would maximize my power as a regent and influence the court to my advantage

    It is highly unlikely that the Queen changed the kings bandages. It would have been considered inappropriate. Who is the source for this? As far as I am aware, expert historians of the era state there is no evidence of her performing such tasks which would resemble nursing him and that it would have been unthinkable

      She was hardly protecting her when she’d previously held Elizabeth down while her husband sexually assaulted her. She saw Elizabeth as competition and sent her away when she reached 15 and parr found her husband ‘embracing’ Elizabeth

    Catherine didn’t marry John Neville out of necessity. She was already descended from a noble family, itself descended from Edward III, as was John Neville. Catherine never lived in Westmoreland, she was born and lived most of her life in London. Her father had retainers to look after is northern lands.

      @@thecalicocat6657 that’s not true. Henry VIII was distantly related to all his wives through Edward I, who was born in 1239, but his closest relative was Catherine of Aragon who was his third cousin once removed.
      Anne B was his 5th cousin once removed
      Jane was his 5th cousin twice removed
