Today very few people, even those who have been to university are educated. It is the age of narcissism. It is such a relief that the mob are not here, giving us the benefit of their idiocy. We can go through life without feeling strongly on every single topic.
Yea, the real joke on Henry was that he always obsessed about having a son to rule after he was gone...ended up being Anne's daughter Elizabeth, who became the greatest ruler England ever had. "The Golden Age." Life is so full of irony, it's not funny!
And the most ironic thing is that after loving her so much, giving her a coronation like no other queen had before and protecting her throughout their time together, it was Henry himself who asked for her head.
There was never any need to prove that. Even at the time they knew they had no evidence against her. But with all things, what Henry wanted was what Henry got.
She did make that idiotic comment about dead mans shoes. That’s treason right there. I feel sorry for the guy, though. He immediately denied it, and still got executed.
@@bellakatherman1477 I believe she did. It’s well documented in contemporary accounts. I know she was railroaded, but there doesn’t seem to be any evidence that this particular conversation was made up.
Like you said, 'obsessed'! Obsession is not love. It never will be. Some try to put a romantic twist on obsession but the truth is, Anne probably lived a real life horror story! This "love" ended in a decapitation, it was never love to begin with!
He was obsessed with Anne because of what she could give him: a male heir. Once he realised that she couldn't give him that (as if it was Anne's fault), he chucked her out. Literally.
Anne Boleyn was probably not-guilty for most of her crimes. But even if she was, she got the last laugh because it was her daughter that brought England to a “golden age,” not his desired son.
Exactly. If Anne had known the outcome, she might have been kinder to KOA and not been so quick to celebrate Katherine's death. Jane Seymour wasn't much better, marrying Henry only 10 days after Anne's execution. Jeez. Queen's stepping over queens right and left.
I read a book that suggests when she died Anne was 35, but yes still could have had more children. Henry contracted syphilis or something that causes long periods of infertility and maybe contributed to miscarriages. Henry was determined not to be the reason he had no son. Also Anne wanted to make changes religion-wise that Henry didn't.
Most historians are pretty sure Henry did not have syphilis. There were well known remedies for it. Henry was not ever treated with those remedies (unlike the French king). There is no reason to think Henry was infertile. His first three queens all fell pregnant relatively easily, but the problem was carrying the baby to term.
@ HiveMistress - I think he had at least 2 sons by mistresses, 1 he acknowleged who was Henry Fitzroy I think and 1 son he didn't acknowledge along with a daughter. I wouldn't be suprised if there were more.
The actress who plays Anne in this is one of the most accurate portrayals of her (except for the hair, Anne had dark auburn hair, not black or brown hair), but the rest fits nicely with what is said of her appearance. Dark expressive eyes, wide mouth, olive skin complexion, slim and attractive.
It's so hard to tell exactly what people looked like back then because every painter used that same renaissance style when doing portraits. I have a feeling she was way more beautiful in person. No way she could steal the king's heart like she did and make him literally split from the church in order to marry her unless her beauty was unmatched!
@@jpman9795 exactly, and she was not only beautiful and charming, she was smart and educated, something very rare for the time standards. She was everything a king wanted in a mistress but not in a wife. Jane Seymour was obedient, quiet and pious, the ideal queen in Henry's mind. Maybe is Anne had married Henry Percy she would have lived a long happy life.
Yea, nature played a cruel trick on Ann. Had she just given him a healthy son, her position as queen would have been assured for the rest of her NATURAL life! She played the game of thrones to perfection...until she couldn't give him an aire! In those days, when you lost at that game...you lost your head! Was a very dangerous game to play for sure.
@@jpman9795 Opinions were divided on her attractiveness due to her unpopularity. She was also not considered beautiful by Tudor standard. The women considered most beautiful at the time had fair skin, fair hair, blue eyes and were voluptuous. Anne had dark hair, dark eyes, sallow or olive skin and was slim.
Anne is less known for her attractiveness than for her wit. She had dark, captivating eyes, but it was her mind, her banter and cleverness, and the way she played the long game (by flirting with Henry and not sleeping with him when he first requested) that caused Henry to fall in love with her. Although as others have said, it is impossible to know for sure exactly what she looked like because of secondhand accounts in letters (some written some time after her death). Also, Henry had all the portraits of her that could be found destroyed as soon as she died to make way for Jane Seymour. So historians are not 100% sure if any remain from when she was alive.
When one considers that the Swordsman would have been commissioned and would have commenced his journey whilst the show trial was in session the outcome of the trial was a foregone conclusion
I don't believe that this is what happened. I believe Henry was the one who asked Cromwell to make up the accusations because he no longer had feelings for Anne and wanted to be rid of her. All evidence points to that. I don't believe for a second that Henry was clueless and actually believed it.
I don't think Henry believed it either. If he did, I don't see why Henry would have been "merciful enough" to have a Frenchman with a sword do Anne's execution otherwise. I think Cromwell proposed the idea to Henry and he just agreed to let Cromwell do it.
I think you’re right. Think how calculating and evil that is , monstrous man , think how humiliating that trial would have been , he might have been insane
No, Catherine was the greatest Queen Consort. She defended England by fighting a war with Scotland while Henry was away. Without her, Henry wouldn't have a throne, Anne would never have been queen and Elizabeth would never have been born.
"I'm that Boleyn girl and I'm up next, see I broke England from the church yeah I'm that sexy, why did I lose my head? Well, my skin may be green but my lipsticks red" Six the musical and this taught me what I needed to pass my social test.
Jane Seymour the only one he truly loved Rude. When my son was newly born I died but I’m not what seem or am I sick around and you’ll suddenly Seymoure
It was a means to an end. After supposedly loving her and waiting to marry her for all those years, he barely gave her three years to provide him with a living son. Henry was fickle in the extreme. He could convince himself to fall in and out of love to suit his own desires. A son was all he wanted and needed and whatever he had to do to achieve that, he did.
@@2Amethyst2 i think his understanding of love was sort of fickle.. he got very intense in the beginning, hopeful ecstasy maybe, but then got over his love and interest... once an idea was implanted in his thoughts, he couldnt get rid of it..
This is so historically inaccurate. The charges against her were false because he was angry that she did give him a son and lost interest in her. He then had his eye on Jane Seymour. This sickens me.
Hindsight is a great thing. So easy to look at the people and forget the politics and power struggles at that time. The creation of Dynasties were an obsession with most rulers.
I feel like anne didn't really did those crimes they are just making up story so that they could get her out of the way because she can't give henry a son....
Thanks for pointing it out. I recently read Alison Weir's excellent biography, Jane Seymor was not the meek and peace loving saint Tv portrayals and shows alike make her to be. Jane fully knew what she was doing and whispered nasty tales into the Kings ear about Anne, whether this was at the behest if her family or Anne's enemies, or to fufill her own agenda and honestly i wouldnt put it past her she was not without ruthlessness and ambition but she was far more subtle about the whole debacle than Anne ever was.
While Jane is widely credited to have Mary restored to favour, it was because it was part if the deal, poor Elizabeth was completely ignored and neglected to the point where her governess, Lady Bryan was begging for new clothes as she had 'neither kirtle nor cloak nor petticoat'. She was invited to court for special occasions, but largely ignored and disregared out of sight. Admittedly Anne Boleyn was no better with the cruel way with which Catherine and Mary were treated, but I agree non of the wives were completely innocent, Expect Catherine of Aragon amd Anne of Cleves i suppose.
Anne promised Henry sons and she failed, but Anne couldn't change from being mistress to Queen and learn to look the other way she believed she had the same power as a mistress but it wasn't adultery that sentenced Anne to death it was "if aught happened to the King, you would look for dead men's shoes" an innocent remark that was used to accuse her of high treason and the sentence for treason was death.
Norris wasn’t the King’s oldest and closest friend. His oldest friend was Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk who married Henry’s sister, Princess Mary, Queen dowager of France.
Anne was still rather young when she died, around 28 years of age. She could still have given Henry more children at least for the next five years. Her death seems very sinister indeed if she still had a few more years left of child-bearing. Something doesn't add up quite right...
All she had to do in order to pull it off was to give him a son or two right off the bat and she would have cemented her place as the queen of England for the rest of her days. Turns out she did produce the future and greatest ruler England ever had. Unfortunately it cost her everything..including her head!
We don’t know her age, but most historians think she was born in 1501. Thus she was in her mid 30s, and almost middle aged in Tudor terms. It was her third pregnancy when she lost the child in Jan 1536, so Henry thought he was being punished again, and he wouldn’t have a son with her.
They were first engaged around November of 1532 and consummated their relationship around that same time (people back then placed the emphasis that an engagement is the same as marriage) . They were officially married on January 1533.
The original episode is over 40 minutes long. This is just a summary with different excerpts from said episode. I wish the full episode, as the other ones too, were available online.
When the prosecutor said that Anne's "only natural brother, George Boleyn, to violate her..." she just gave that WTF expression. Those charges were trumped up indeed.
Fun fact: Anne could have had a son if she didn't have that miscarriage on the same day of Catherine of Aragon's funeral. Anne was already on thin ice.
I've just found out I am related to Henry Norris. He is my 14th Great Grandfather. I'm a Historian, so I already knew his name... but to be related. How amazing.
Actually, it's been recorded that Henry was handsome when he was younger. It wasn't until after he was injured from being thrown of horse that he started to put on weight and become the overweight man we know today.
Catherine of Aragon was no English commoner like Anne. She was a princess of Spain, the daughter of two powerful monarchs - Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile. If Henry had executed Catherine, he would have embroiled England in a war with Spain and possibly the Holy Roman Empire whose ruler was her nephew Charles V and likely ostracized by the other European rulers of the time as well.
A Blindfold? Really? It is said the Swordsman of Calais ordered someone to bring him his sword while he already snook up behind her with his blade by taking of his shoes so her Majesty wouldn't hear him approaching nor see the blade coming since she instinctively turned in the direction she thought the sword to be...no blindfold
He didn't force her into marriage. Anne had her ambitions. She wanted to be Queen. She may not have deserved to die but she still did some bad things and wasn't completely innocent.
@@angrykoala1516 based on this .. Anne was forced into marriage .. she had a lover ... but yes .. after Henry fall for her .. like any other women she was selfish to own him ..
It's Hard to feel bad for her. Like did she not see how he treated Mary's mother. When it comes to men, Some people are just hard head unfortunately she had to lose her head over it
If she was involve 1 or 2 men. I think, it was not guilty, because lack of evidences, but 5 men, I believe, she made a serious crime some where against king.
When Anne went to the scaffold,she received a royal execution; the scaffold was covered in purple cloth, she had a cushion to protect her knees and there was a long bow chest to put her body in. Because Catherine Howard was stripped of her queen ship, she had to kneel on straw, take her chances with the axe, she wrapped in black cloth and buried in the ground . Anne was never relieved of her title, therefore she received the privileges she did. The French swordsman meant it was done very quickly once she was kneeling and blindfolded. The executioner didn't dress in a mask, but dressed in the traditional clothing that didn't mark him out, and kept the sword hidden until everything was ready.
You don't know any of that, it's speculation that she was innocent. So much was destroyed afterwards and it's always a possibility that Elizabeth I helped "polish" her mother's dark reputation. During Anne's lifetime she had a very bad reputation, she was very narcissistic and did not care what people thought of her. Reminds me a lot of recent royalty a certain Duchess.
Does anyone else not see that king Henry vlll was a woman killer he had more queens beheaded than any other king . This is just so sad headed her for false accusations Anne was innocent and he knew it

My father did not like a daughter he wanted a son. Poor Edward died young. I was a queen and so was Elizabeth.
nina?
Yet I’m curious why he spared his ex queen. She didn’t produced an air to the throne. She only had Mary.
Catherine had powerful family connections.
Catherine of Aragon was no English commoner like Anne. She was a princess of Spain, the daughter of two powerful monarchs - Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile. If Henry had executed Catherine, he would have embroiled England in a war with Spain and possibly the Holy Roman Empire whose ruler was her nephew Charles V and likely ostracized by the other European rulers of the time as well.
Catherine also had more than one child. Mary was the only one to survive into adulthood.
Love Queen Anne Boleyn
I think the guy playing Henry is the guy who played Bradly Branning in Eastenders.
Both sisters are lending DNA back and forth. But the best is not always the King's wife.
You know what you’re talking about, thanks for posting , insightful
Loyalty is royalty
Who's the name of actress who protrays Anne Boleyn.
I believe it was written by a foreign visitor to Henry's court that Anne's hair was raven black.
Era tan difícil que en The Tudors usaran este vestuario??
Les faltó
Evil is eliminated in the society
King Henry the 8th in regard as one of the greatest Kings but this guy was a monster
he may have been THE most important king in english history
Is Henry the 8th Bradley Brennan from EastEnders ?😂
A Blindfold? Really? It is said the Swordsman of Calais ordered someone to bring him his sword while he already snook up behind her with his blade by taking of his shoes so her Majesty wouldn't hear him approaching nor see the blade coming since she instinctively turned in the direction she thought the sword to be...no blindfold
I don’t like Cromwell Anne is INOCENT!!!!! like if you agree
Her husband was the problem not her
Treason could be anything the king wanted it to be
dude, this is sad
I would like to see 👀 more please 🙏
Anne would have lead a normal and loved life if Henry did not force her into marriage
He didn't force her into marriage. Anne had her ambitions. She wanted to be Queen. She may not have deserved to die but she still did some bad things and wasn't completely innocent.
@@angrykoala1516 based on this .. Anne was forced into marriage .. she had a lover ... but yes .. after Henry fall for her .. like any other women she was selfish to own him ..
I think that it's cruel thing to do beheading anne boleyn!
It's Hard to feel bad for her. Like did she not see how he treated Mary's mother. When it comes to men, Some people are just hard head unfortunately she had to lose her head over it
Guessing there wasn't much budget for any extras in the crowd at the end
It was Elizabeth 1st who would reign for over 40 years
If she was involve 1 or 2 men. I think, it was not guilty, because lack of evidences, but 5 men, I believe, she made a serious crime some where against king.
Absolute cruelty
CLICKBAIT.
This scandal i find dubious i cant imagine Anne would say such a thing ( Henry turned on Anne after she had a second miscarriage)
When Anne went to the scaffold,she received a royal execution; the scaffold was covered in purple cloth, she had a cushion to protect her knees and there was a long bow chest to put her body in. Because Catherine Howard was stripped of her queen ship, she had to kneel on straw, take her chances with the axe, she wrapped in black cloth and buried in the ground . Anne was never relieved of her title, therefore she received the privileges she did.
The French swordsman meant it was done very quickly once she was kneeling and blindfolded. The executioner didn't dress in a mask, but dressed in the traditional clothing that didn't mark him out, and kept the sword hidden until everything was ready.
Howard was guilty and everyone knew Ann was innocent ..so Henry gave her mercy killing
Really? No ones going to say it?
I will then- hi Bradley!!! I knew I recognised Henry
six musical anyone?
It was an unwritten custom for noble women not to scream during labour.
Don't mind me, I'm just here for everyones Wikipedia copy and paste historical facts in the comments section, being passed of as there own.
Just like Charles and Dianne,
Divorce wasn't enough.
So let's go the extra mile.
What is disappointing is Lord Spencers and Prince Williams Silence.
You don't know any of that, it's speculation that she was innocent. So much was destroyed afterwards and it's always a possibility that Elizabeth I helped "polish" her mother's dark reputation. During Anne's lifetime she had a very bad reputation, she was very narcissistic and did not care what people thought of her. Reminds me a lot of recent royalty a certain Duchess.
Does anyone else not see that king Henry vlll was a woman killer he had more queens beheaded than any other king . This is just so sad headed her for false accusations Anne was innocent and he knew it
Because she only had girls only catherine had a boy she escape she was engage she read him the bible verses
