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 ANNE WAS NEVER UGLY

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.

[@DasWarVorbestimmt]

Fun Fact: Henry never asked to divorce his first wife, he asked for an annullment, which means that his marriage would have been decleared to never have been legitimate, since the bible forbidds a union of brother and widow.

[@circeeldritchtheworkaholic8934]

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.

[@jadonlamey3931]

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
