[@thedifferent14]

Just in case anybody is confused about why Anne was upset about Henry's shirts, here's an explanation: Making some thing for someone, and spending time and energy creating it splendidly is an intimate action. And Henry wearing them is an action acceptance of that intimacy. That's why Anne was mad.

[@chooseyourpoison5105]

Not only that, but making the King's shirts was considered to be one of the wifely duties of the Queen. By continuing to let Katherine carry on sewing his shirts Henry was basically acknowledging her as his wife. Or at least that's how Anne saw it. Henry likely just saw it as convenient to let Katherine do it as she was an excellent seamstress and embroiderer and knew his measurements and what he liked.

[@sweetspicy7880]

She ruined a marriage , she could have let Katherine get some comfort by atleast making shirts Taking everything away from her so brutally is what killed her mercilessly

[@Mel-jy4kc]

sweet spicy Or Katherine could have accepted that her husband wanted a divorce, thereby eliminating the situation coming up in the first place.

[@zorasapphire]

@@Mel-jy4kc He didn't just want a divorce, he wanted an annulment; that's an entirely different thing. Out of the five rather unfortunate women who suffered being married to him (I leave Anna von Kleve out of the group, since she was the only lucky one right after her divorce from him), Catalina ended up being, by far, the one who endured the most miserable outcome, beyond any doubt. Her love-and-then-heartbreak story with him is, to this day, among the most devastating ones of all time. May Catalina, the true Queen of England, rest in peace. 💔

[@Mel-jy4kc]

Kokiri Emerald Either way the marriage was over and she needed to accept it. She was also not the one true queen. Once her marriage was annulled she was single, making Anne Boleyn the true queen until her death. Also, getting unfairly executed makes Anne Boleyn the one with the most miserable outcome.

TimeNeverSleeps1090--It's not just Henry. It's men, in general, who perceive themselves to be "alpha males" , whether by rank, or lucking out in the gene pool, or just in their own imagination. Nor is the phenomenon relegated solely to males. Alpha females exhibit those traits as well, using men to climb the social ladder or just to push aside a woman they view as lesser to them in looks, social class, or their own point of view.

[@Seliquin]

Anne was really good at manipulating Henry in the beginning according this series. She played her part well to get his attention and keep it. I suspect what changed was when she fell in love with him. Its easy to play and manipulate a person if there is no attachment but that changed for Anne.

[@Alessandraizidoro5]

me realized that is more easy for me maniputive my boyfriend when i not so in love with him but now that i'm falling love with him is too hard

[@chooseyourpoison5105]

No, I think that the manipulative ways (e.g. tantrums, jealousy, her argumentative nature) that served her so well as his mistress became a major disadvantage once she was his wife. The same qualities that stimulated and excited Henry in the beginning of their relationship turned him right off her once she was queen.

[@ineffablegabe]

@@chooseyourpoison5105 Yup, she just wasn't queen material. And I'm not saying the Queen has to be submissive, only that a queen in those times, especially one married to a narcissistic king like Henry, should at least pretend to be submissive, while being defiant always on the inside. Catherine of Aragon did so all her life. Just because she tolerated Henry's mistresses and bastard son doesn't mean she was a weakling, but I believe Anne Boleyn thought that's exactly what the queen Catherine was. Anne's own brother George in the show said to her something like, "can't you be more like Catherine?!" Anne apparently really couldn't. She simply didn't want to, didn't have the patience and common sense to. I perfectly recall her looking so genuinely confused at the mere suggestion of it from her brother. "Be like... Catherine..?" Was what she had said, in a thoroughly bewildered tone. Her false tough chick persona and ultimately worthless pride meant more to her than staying in the king's good graces. I'm not here to defend Henry, as I think he was in the end nothing but a remorseless mass murderer, but I do staunchly believe that if Anne had pretended to be submissive and meek from the start of her marriage to the end of it, then Henry wouldn't have been so pissed at her. He would certainly still blame her for not having a son, as he blamed Catherine before, and he would certainly annual his marriage to Anne, as he did his union with Catherine before, but there's a good chance that an Anne who hasn't taken every moment to defy him, piss him off, disobey him, and talk back to him, an Anne who'd even stroked Henry's ego by making herself seem inferior compared to her Lord Husband the King, and an Anne who hadn't made enemies left, right and center in court, would likely have had her marriage annuled and gotten sent for life to a nunnery, instead of getting her head whacked off, I believe. I could be wrong, but I really don't think I am.

[@leslyc.222]

@@ineffablegabe you are wrong, What would have been the excuse to annul the marriage with Anne?

[@kward8996]

She was doing what she was told like most females in that time. She was a pawn used by the males in her family and their allies to gain power. Most of what she said and did would have been fed to her.

[@pyromania1018]

It's fitting that Natalie Dormer played both Anne Boleyn and Margaery Tyrell because of how different they are. Anne (much like Cersei Lannister, ironically) never fully understood the perks of a good PR, her attempts to interfere in the matters of governance were met with haughty derision, and her behavior towards Henry after they were married did not help her case at all. By contrast, Margaery knows the game of politics like the back of her hand, perfectly understands the necessity of a good public image, and plays the meek and obedient wife flawlessly while gently--but firmly--wrapping her husband around her pretty little finger. Margaery is everything that Anne isn't.

[@fatimaquddus5037]

Well I don't know about that, she did seduce or at least got Henry to divorce his previous wife of what 20 years or so and make her queen. She was apparently in charge or had some influence in bringing Protestantism in England, handpicking the bishops and clergymen. Henry made a Marques in her own right before she became queen. She was able to survive the way she did because of her astute mind and keenness in politics, that's how she won the divorce. I'd say both Anne Bolyne and Margaery were cut off from the same cloth, the only difference in unlike Joffery who one can blatently see was insane, Anne didn't know what she was getting into that or she was fooled into thinking Henry loved, which he probably did for a time, but seeing what happened to her predecessor she should have expected what happened, in my opinion it was all karma. Margeary wants to be queen for the power, and so did Anne, but I think Anne genuinely believed Henry loved which is why she couldn't just shut up and bear Henry's infidelity, what's more his waning attention to her bode ill to her because she had yet to bear a son, and her entire survival depended on that! Not to mention Margeary was lucky enough to have her wise and sassy grandmother to protect, Anne had none of that. I wouldn't say Anne was anything like Cersie, they share some alike, being puppets to their fathers but Anne's father recognized her intelligence and acknowledged it unlike Cersie. No Anne and Margeary are very alike, just one was more unlucky then the other.

[@MsJubjubbird]

Anne was a good mistress but a bad wife. Men want their mistresses to be exciting and volatile and almost out of reach. Anne was also everything Katherine was not and Henry was against Katherine because of the son issue. The family knew firsthand from the experience with Mary Boleyn that the family of the king's mistress profited so they wanted Anne next when Mary was no longer in flavour- but more long term, which she achieved through her wit, intellect and flirtatiousness and abstinence. He was besotted with her and gave her great influence over the kingdom so he could have a son. Her wish was his command. However, a wife should be humble and obedient and concerned with only woman's affairs. Once he married her he grew tired of her tantrums, especially when the lack of baby boys surfaced again. He no longer wanted her telling him what to do, that he couldn't have affairs as he had done with her and he did not want her influence in politics. Add to that that she'd made a powerful political enemy with Cromwell, she had no powerful allies abroad and she did not seem to be the type to go without a fight so he got rid of her the easiest way possible.

[@calypsoathenairos8622]

Anna had a fierce spirit, she would have thrown all the manners and public images of the world away if somebody tried to put her in "her" place. She was wild and free.

[@marysueeasteregg]

Of all the characters in GoT, Margaery would be my first choice to rule.

[@GoldenRose116]

i wouldnt really say that. I mean there is a key difference between Margaery and Anne, because Anne genuinely loved Henry so of course she was upset when he did shit like cheating while for Margaery her husbands where tools for power (she was fond of Renly and Tommen, but didn't love them). Plus while i loved Margaery she didn't play her game flawless. She openly showed her ambition towards Littlefinger and other people and not to mention even when Cersei was trying to make amends she mocked her, resulting in her arrest and eventual death

[@chooseyourpoison5105]

This scene really does illustrate the old "men are from mars, women are from venus" adage. From Henry's perspective, he probably just wanted the shirts that he knew and liked; he's telling the truth when he says he hadn't even thought about it. From Anne's perspective, the shirts are symbolic of the fact that Katherine was still his wife, because she is still performing wifely duties (i.e. making his clothes) for Henry. Mars / Venus.

Henry was caught between two stubborn wilful women. But he asked for it.......And Catherine of Aragon was not as meek and mild as many think. She was a proud Spanish princess from the most illustrious royal family in Europe and she fought her corner well when the time came. She outsmarted and undercut Henry in many ways - and in the end the Pope declared her marriage valid. She sadly did not realize that this would not bring Henry back to her. And Mary, who had blamed Anne for everything, expected she would be restored to her father and her position after Annes death.....that didn't happen either. Not for a long time. Not until she accepted her bastardy, and the king being supreme head of the church and other humiliating submissions after years of bullying by the king and his councilors. She never fully forgave her father.....there are hints in comments she has made and left for posterity.

[@chooseyourpoison5105]

Ikr? I do like the famous exchange where, attempting to gain an annulment after 20 years of marriage, Henry said to the Council that he had doubted the legitimacy of their marriage from the very beginning, and Katherine replied sweetly that if that were the case, then he had kept his doubts silent for a very long time. Oh, mic drop, Katherine! BOOM!

[@chooseyourpoison5105]

@Nenethegreat W Yes, people do stay silent a long time, but Henry wasn't one of them. Firstly, we all know that Henry wasn't the silent sort - he didn't hesitate to get rid of anyone he didn't like - heck, he got rid of Anne of Cleves so fast he puts Sonic the hedgehog to shame. Secondly, he did love Catherine for many years - he referred to her in letters as "my most dearly beloved spouse" and fought in tournaments under the banner of "Sir Loyal Heart" for her. Thirdly, how convenient for Henry that God should have caused him to have doubts about his marriage at the same time that he just happened to get the hots for Anne Boleyn. It's rather odd how "God's will" and the King's horniness seemed to be one and the same - how very obliging of Him.

Anne was a very, very modern woman in her values years before her time. Hot headed and with a need to be heard, married to a man whose gender and crown meant no voice was allowed to be louder and no opinion was worth more. They were never in love with one another, they were in lust. Henry loved the idea of what she could give him, but when her voice became too loud and that idea seemed to fade with every loss they shared, he'd had enough. And when the King of England has enough, heads roll. Was Anne a perfect woman? No. But the men in her life were the reason she met the fate she did, her father and the King demanded too much and valued nothing about her but what they could get from her.

Thing is, she WAS. They make things dramatic on television but in real life? She was SO subtle. Subtle and clever and sneaky and gorgeous.

[@AnzuBrief]

In The Tudors she was quite cunning and subtle at first, but then she made the mistake of falling for him and allowed her emotion to get the better of her. I might have been something like that in real life. Maybe no falling for him, but after realising the power she held over him, the power he gave her, it went to her head... and she forgot how easily she could be taken down.

[@ineffablegabe]

Agreed. Both were self centered psychotic assholes who deserved each other, alongside being deserving of worse than they got. I'm sure, in a modern au, Jane Seymour, Catherine of Aragon, Catherine Parr, Catherine Howard and especially Anne of Cleves, wouldn't give Henry 8 the time of the day - but Anne Boleyn, I'm certain, would be the only idiot who would fall hook, line and sinker for Henry's woe-is-my-married/love-life tales. Their relationship, just like in the show, would be a loop of back and forth narcissism-enriching feedback.

[@isidroguevara4120]

@@ineffablegabe Godamn! Did you really think the real Anne Boleyn wanted to be with Henry??? Not after what he did to her sister. She even had to leave her job/court to escape him but he still chased her. He probably thought she was playing "hard to get" but she wasn't. She was basically coerced into being his lover. Sure, over time she probably did come to love him but she had no choice. Remember, if she told the KING she didn't love him straight up, then there would be horrible consequences for her family. Also, take off your 21st century glasses for a second. This show is for entertainment purposes only. It's not 100 percent accurate. Reality was a bit more complicated.

[@ineffablegabe]

@@isidroguevara4120 first of all, we are discussing the show here, it's your fault for assuming I was talking of the real life people, while I was only referring to their show counterparts. In this show, Anne Boleyn did willingly come to court with the intention of seducing Henry, her downfall was that she got seduced in turn. But, show! Anne Boleyn only has herself to blame for that, considering she literally spoke the words "seduce me" over and over to Henry. There was no Henry forcing Anne Boleyn into a relationship with him in the show. Henry in the show never once stalked her, only chased her like the lust struck idiot dog he was, when, again, she literally said to him the words "seduce me". If you don't remember this from the show, it's not my fault your capacity for memorization of simple facts is shit. I'll think what i want to think about both real life, as well as all fictional portrayals of Anne Boleyn. If you disagree, well, by all means: Cry me a river! Toodles! 😉😊

[@Hjalmar_an_Craite]

@@ineffablegabe Oh come on, even in the show she was reluctant. They outwardly show that she seduced the king because her family told her to do that and she couldn't really refuse it. In the show they made her fall in love with Henry, was it like that in real life? We'll never know.

[@AnzuBrief]

@@Hjalmar_an_Craite Why is Jane any better than Anne? She also seduced a married man and they didn't bat an eye when he killed his current wife to marry her?

[@Rinnocentsama]

Anne Boleyn was the perfect mistress to King Henry, but when they married she didn't conform into a 'wife' and that displeased him.

[@marley92282]

Carly she was way ahead of her time. Wives shouldn’t be obedient little servants.

[@ineffablegabe]

@@marley92282 It's not called being way ahead of her time. It's called being an idiot. Anne really thought Henry would keep her, especially if she failed to give him a son, after he'd already shown how his previous wife was in the end just a "failed" broodmare to him? Why? Cause Anne believed she married the king for love, while Catherine didn't? That's not true. Henry willingly married COA for her massive dowry and the prestige of Europe's greatest bloodline. It was also an added bonus that COA was said to be the most beautiful princess in all of Europe in her youth. Henry was actually very much in love with Catherine for about 2 decades, until the idea of getting a son from a new wife came into his head. Henry was actually very into publicaly professing his love for COA from the rooftops before it became clear with their last dead child that it was her last plausable attempt at giving him a male heir. It was supremely foolish and arrogant of Anne Boleyn to think he'd keep to their marriage bed, or that he'd have any appreciation for their daughter Elizabeth, after the way she had seen -even herself incited- his horrible treatment of his eldest daughter, whom for a long time he had called the "finest pearl of England". CoA never showed arrogance, but even if she had, she'd have good reason to. She was an infanta of spain, daughter of the infamous Catholic Monarchs, and aunt to the holy Roman emperor, which is why it was fully guaranteed that Henry couldn't kill her, or her daughter, without going to war with all of the continent. The Boleyns on the other hand were nobodys, in terms of having noble blood. Hell, CoA even had a far more esteemed bloodline than her husband! So the fact that Anne couldn't even bring herself to pretend to be the weak, submissive, innocent wife, just shows her enormous stupidity. COA was a real example of a woman ahead of her time, in that she refused to take any of her husband and his mistress's shit laying down. She refused to surrender her daughter's birthright. And she did it all the while presenting a perfect mix face of innocence, smarts and pride. Hell, even the French royals, her family's sworn enemies, considered her Henry's real wife and the mother of his trueborn child, while Anne and her kid were deemed illegitimate. If Anne hadn't pissed Henry off so much with her arrogance, he probably would've exiled her to a nunnery. But her constant shouting and holier than thou preaching at him insured him looping her head off. She, for no reason, made herself countless enemies at court with her superiority complex. COA on the other hand was universally beloved, cause she knew how to play the game. Another woman ahead of her time was Henry's 4th wife, Anne of Cleves, who acted meek and simple-minded and gave Henry the divorce he desired from her, which put her so up in his good graces, that he bestowed upon her Castles and annual grants of money. Yes, wives shouldn't have to be obident little servants, but in times when being disobident caused Anne Boleyn and countless other women their lives, I think I can safely say with certainty that keeping on a facade of obidence is the best thing to do to insure one's self preservation. And shouldn't for any women truly worthy of being "way ahead of her time" self preservation be paramount? But for Anne Boleyn, it apparently wasn't. In the show, George Boleyn, Anne's own brother tells her to keep her temper down, to not get in trouble/the king's bad side. He outright says, "can't you be more like Catherine?" He obviously meant, be opiniated and strong willed with pride, but only on the inside, while putting on the act of kindness.

Yep, pretty much a classic "men are from mars, women are from venus" moment. Henry likely just wanted the shirts he knew and liked and saw no reason why Katherine shouldn't continue making them as she knew his measurements and preferred styles. Anne, on the other hand, sees the shirts as an acknowledgement of Katherine' status as queen, as making the king's shirts was part of the queen's wifely duties.

[@TinyDancer250]

phantomwaltz That only happened later. With a daughter and two miscarried sons, and her father's paranoia and pressure, her position became very shaky. The more stressed and frightened she got, the more she lashed out at the people who hated her and/or could hurt her the most. This began building the momentum for her downfall and that of her family, which increased her stress in a very self-destructive and vicious cycle.

[@leanie9660]

phantomwaltz ...well, you were watching a dramatization.....no subtlety allowed. No one TRULY can claim to know how Anne behaved....many of the reports come from people who hated her. We don't even know her true hair colour, or her year of birth, but people think that they know all of her motivations and actions

[@Moriartart]

Aileen McMillan exactly! No one will ever know the real Anne. Only Anne knew

[@chooseyourpoison5105]

She had a hot temper to start with (Anne once said she was 'intemperate') and the strain of failed pregnancies and the knowledge that her enemies were lurking, would have not helped that aspect of her personality one bit. The fear of losing her position would have eaten at her as well - at her execution she said "I have often taken it into my head to be jealous of him". That's the trouble when a man marries his mistress - he creates a vacancy.
