Maybe… probably. But, maybe not! She could have been guilty of some and not others. It does seem like it was just an overzealous witch hunt designed to be insane and full of enough awful things to convince Henry to be rid of her. But, who really knows? Maybe she did something completely different that just drove the elite nuts or actually was treasonous but not as bad as the crimes she was charged with. Again, I do think you’re probably right that she was imminent of all charges but it’s just so hard now a days to know the whole story.
It’s ironic that Henry VIII lives on in infamy as a murderous tyrant whilst his daughter with Ann Boleyn, Elizabeth, is remembered as the most beloved and famous English monarch. Love them or hate them the Tudor dynasty is the most famous in English history.
Really wow.. but yep that was the last order his father gave him. Henry later uses this as a reason for them to grant his divorce from her so he can marry Anbe Bolyen
Am I supposed to feel sorry for Henry VIII? Nope, not gonna happen. A privileged spoiled psychopath who is responsible for the execution of 50,000 people.
The entire history of European monarchies is a categorical failure if you measure it by the one and only metric that should matter: *Did they make the lives of the working classes and the poor better, or worse?* From one English ruler to the next, the answer is always "worse." Just keep in mind how bourgeois these documentarians really are. They are useful to some extent if you're interested in history, but their ultimate aim is always to uphold and propagandize for colonialism, empire, and the power of the ruling classes.
My brother real dad was Henry VIII an monster he was just like an monster boy that doesn't exist he was born in the England of the castle he was like Edwardd VI total monster I just wish he doesn't exist to our
A gagging order? Would you want your personal secretary, housekeeper, and/or other employees discussing your personal business and gossiping about you? Henry was a tyrant but expecting employees to show loyalty and use discretion, especially ones with knowledge of your PERSONAL life, is completely reasonable. It’s called the PRIVY CHAMBER for a reason.
Catherine should have done what Sarah did for her husband. She should have adopted Anne Bolyne as a broodsow to carry a son which she would adopt upon birth and then had Anne exiled or executed to ensure no relationship continued after the heir was sired.
I really find him exceptionally fascinating. Henry the 8th was, what in today's world would be called a spoiled bully who was never told "no". A Karen if you will.

Queen Anne Boleyn was innocent of the charges against her.

I've looked for the reply to my post, which is absent so obviously can't reply. Regardless of what that post may have been said.
Genius
how do you know
Wow that's helpful, thanks 😂
Thanks! More ancient and medieval please 😊
Grear documentary and costume/set design!
Correction. It’s king Henry who is not giving Queen Catherine sons. Males pass on the Y chromosome.
Yes, correct, unfortunately, at the time, it was the women’s fault.
I’m surprised with the high mortality rates that they didn’t involve young Henry more , but hindsight is 20/20. Love your channel ❤👍❤

Thank you. Watching from Alaska.
This is the first I have heard that Henry VII tells Henry VIII he must marry Artur's widow!
I believe it was the other way around. Henry insisted and had to get a dispensation from the pope.
Really wow.. but yep that was the last order his father gave him. Henry later uses this as a reason for them to grant his divorce from her so he can marry Anbe Bolyen
I wonder why the 2nd son was given his father's name? That seems odd
Henry ‘s claim to the the throne was tenacious. He wanted the Tudors to lay claim to royal blood dating back to King Arthur.
HENRY REMINDS ME OF A KING, In the old testament Very insecure.
One was fairytale , the other true
Part 2 please
Please upload Part II 🙏
Youthful Henry channeling Steve McQueen's prison ball bouncing from the Great Escape.
He was very much text book Narcissist GRANDIOSE
When or where is the next part?
it's out
Agreed

Just because your're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you.
Wow
Duke of Buckingham has lupus
A monster
I can answer that ! Henry was a psychopathic mass murderer!
Monster is right
I think Henry was simply a horrible person.
Ask one of his wives. They may know for sure.
Henry being a Gemini makes so much sense lol
Agree!

This is irrelevant, but I’ve always thought his father, Henry VII was the most attractive King that England has ever had!
How big was Henry's codpiece again? Check out Holbein's famous protrait and see. I joust you not!
Let’s be honest Henry VIII’s sense of distrust was well founded
A psychopath who executed one person for every day of his reign
Catherine should have done what Sarah did for her husband. She should have adopted Anne Bolyne as a broodsow to carry a son which she would adopt upon birth and then had Anne exiled or executed to ensure no relationship continued after the heir was sired.
Don't know if that would have worked. Anne got the sword for loosing A son
This bio is just 45 minutes long, how can that do his complicated life justice.
Isn't the message of this episode that even if you weren't against him you still 'paid for it' ?
I really find him exceptionally fascinating. Henry the 8th was, what in today's world would be called a spoiled bully who was never told "no". A Karen if you will.
What else could Henry VIII have done to get a male heir?
He had illegitimate ones. That Fitzroy kid
Adopt? 😅
@@LilyZerep Yeah
I wonder if Henry 8th had autism.? There are some similarities with autism and hrnry 8th behavior
Are the female historians too pretty?
Henry megalomaniac, narcissist king.
All wives (except 1) named Anne or Cathy
Bro died, married his widow
Wife #2 and #5 were cousins, he killed 'em both
Weighed over 400 lbs
Henry 8 was Borderline.
