[@emmat3691]

I completely agree, they should have worded it much better. Like if they want to tell the narrative from his perspective, which is what they were trying to do, they should have added something like “in his mind, he had been betrayed...” instead. He was clearly egotistical and self-absorbed and likely truly believed that these poor women betrayed him.

[@dondonfilms2005]

Everything he did in that time period was actually justified. He never knew the accusations against Anne boleyn were false. I blame the courtiers and councillors who fed him poison over the years of his reign.

[@frances9550]

Catherine Parr is usually shown as the "only wife" of Henry VIII to survive but actually Anne of Cleves faired much better. After her annulment from Henry Anne negotiated staying in England as his sister, was made rich and had freedom she never dreamed of growing up in a puritanical Protestant court. While Katherine Parr died from childbirth just a few years after Henry's death, Anne lived many happy years until she died of old age at the beginning of Elizabeth I reign.

[@janefelix3821]

Anne Cleves died at 42, not really old age and about a year prior to Elizabeth becoming Queen, she died during the reign of Queen Mary i. While she lived well, she never remarried, unlike Catherine Parr, never had children, and while she died of natural causes, was only 42. Catherine of Aragon, the only wife older than Henry, by 6 years, had the longest life, passing at 50, it was just she being older died before Henry did, but then again being the Aunt of the most powerful ruler from the most powerful family in Europe, the Hapsburg King of Spain and Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, she could not be harmed, at least physically.

[@xxwhispersxx2856]

That was considered old age back in those times.

[@elernation5519]

To be fair, being divorced meant loosing access to your children and most likely having to leave england or at least leave vast sways of wealth with people disgusted at you. Being his widow made much more sympathy

[@maddogmadison2188]

Katherine Parr died a year after Henry VIII and Anne of Cleves lived much longer than both. I believe she's the was the better for it.

[@jennyrose9454]

She knew to keep her mouth shut and how to avoid updating Henrys ego . She was smart acting like he "knew best". I'm betting she was relieved when he croaked. Imagine being such a disgusting narcicist.

[@iloveyourunclebob]

Yeah but the rhyme is divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived. It's about their relationships with Henry. So, "survived, but not as long as Anne of Cleves" doesn't fit and doesn't make sense in the context of the ending of her relationship with Henry. Also, technically Catherine of Aragon LIVED the longest of all the queens. Anne just died later in the century.

I think Katherine Part had the experience and maturity of Katharine of Aragon, the intelligence and spirit of Anne Boleyn but the common sense of Anne of Clever and the observation tactics of Jane Seymour. Her debated with the King were her slipping into Anne Boleyn territory, and she used her intelligence to get out of it and become a Jane Seymour type wife.

[@brontewcat]

Interesting. This documentary skips a rather well known story that Gardiner persuaded Henry to issue a warrant for the arrest of the Queen. However, it was dropped (by design or accident), and a loyal supporter of Catherine’s gave it to her. She was very distressed, and Henry heard her, went to her and comforted her. The next day Catherine and he had the chat, in which he tests her. After they made up Gardiner arrived to arrest the Queen, but was hunted away by Henry calling him a knave. (Mind you I have always wondered why Gardiner tried to go thru with the arrest when the warrant had been lost, and he saw Henry being friendly with the Queen). There is some speculation, that Henry engineered the whole incident to teach Catherine a lesson.

[@TsukabuNosoratori2]

That and Catherine pleaded her case directly to her husband, saying she only wanted to learn from him or something like that. She was really quite clever and knew how to survive.

Apparently he died of syphilis. But if this were the case, he would have passed it on to his children. Edward died at a young age. And we don't know of offspring conceived by him after Jane Seymour. Both Mary and Elizabeth were robust.

Such an underrated character. Even Catherine Howard has more fans even though she's only a child with no interesting attributes. Catherine Parr on the other hand is an amazing woman. I never understood why she's not admired like Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, or Jane Seymour. She is intelligent and has a political figure just like Catherine. She shares similar values to Anne. And she acts obedient to keep her head just as Jane did. She's the combination of all the women Henry ever loved. I think he chose her as his final five because he felt guilty for all the things he did to his past wives. He made amends by marrying Catherine Parr. Also, it is known that Catherine of Aragon was the godmother of Catherine Parr and Parr was named after her. The connection between them and the fact that their character is so similar may indicate that Henry went through all those wives just to end up with one just like CoA. I think he considered CoA as his one true love and loved her more than anyone else.

[@gloryB-3]

Agree with all

[@isobelduncan]

I like to think that Anne and Katherine would've got on quite well. Not only because they were both Reformists but also because of how much Katherine cared for Elizabeth.

[@carolconaway5852]

How did Anne Bolyen betray him or his first wife? He betrayed himself.

[@student05-bdes52]

exactly. he's the one who betrayed everyone. none of the wives betrayed him, especially not his beautiful first wife

[@phylogenie12]

I think I have heard, that Anne Bolyen wanted to sleep with her brother, since she wanted a son-a heir to the throne- (and Henry didn't wanted to sleep with her anymore, cause he wanted to devorce her and was searching for a reason to do so) but the wife of the brother told Henry everything, so he had finally a reason-also in the eyes of the nation- to get her divorced or even better beheaded...

Catherine really should have kept her mouth shut. Henry only started the reformation to marry Anne Boleyn. He was always a Catholic and died clutching his Catholic rosary.

[@irawilliams343]

Catherine Parr was the one who survived according to the rhyme, but it was Anne of Cleeves who was the ultimate survivor since she lived long enough to see Mary rise to the throne and died popular and well-respected.

Catherine is known as the one who survived but she actually died a year after Henry and Anne Of Cleves outlived her 😂

[@sarahjuarez1433]

I still show more sympathy for his first wife. (Katherine of Aragon) She was the real one true wife to him. She loved and was still truly in love with him. He doesnt deserve anything from anyone. Not even love from his people, or any from every one of his wives.... Bet his own court was happy he was gone. They could breathe a little. Til the next tyrant came on the throne. His daughter Mary, I know a Elizabeth had a temper also. But I rather have her as my queen than Mary.. I dont haven issue with catholic religion. just the people like Mary that make it seem as pure evil... like any other religion out there.

[@hannahcracknell6483]

I like to think that Catherine of Aragon was his true and forever love. I reckon he became consumed by having a male heir, but if her son's had lived, I believe she would have remained queen permanently. Yes he had mistresses etc, but I do feel like he continued to look for her in each wife he took. Her not giving him a male heir was the only reason he had her removed - and not even killed. He did not even plot to have her killed somehow. He never had a son to truly succeed him as heir - the daughter of Catherine and Henry, Mary, was the ultimate heir after his death (and then the death of Edward). If he had perhaps accepted Mary as his heir and reformed to a woman ruling, rather than try to reform the entire church etc, things may have been better for him. I believe he lived with regret for the rest of his life in missing Catherine of Aragon 💜 just how I'd like to see it 🙂

[@selinapersaud7629]

I disagree to some extent. I believe that her true love was the one she married before. There just wasn’t enough time for them.

What's the title of this movie? Where's the complete link to this movie? I really wanted to watch this. Could anyone here pls tell me?

[@ShrubbyCanine]

these scenes were made exclusively for this documentary, I don’t think there’s a movie of this

[@slytheringingerwitch]

Originally the series was made for Channel five and was on their demand service.

Actually pretty tragic that king Henry 8th died emotionally alone and brought it on himself

[@bluetulip9297]

Catherine of Aragon, Anne of Cleves, and Catherine Parr- the only smart ones.

[@janefelix3821]

@@marys.8379 Jane Seymour produced a son, the number one purpose of a Consort. Even if Henry got tired of her, being able to produce a son, would mean she could not be harmed, if anything Henry would just take a mistress or two but spare the future King's mother.

I thought that Katharine of Aragon’s dowry was so great that Henry VII was loathe to lose such a large sum.

[@stephanielowde1564]

I dont believe all Henry's wives cheated on him they was murdered for rumours

[@isobelduncan]

Catherine Howard might have, we don't know for certain. It depends on how you interpret her letters. But in her defence she was very naive and a had a poor upbringing. She had no proper parent/guardian figure in her life to teach her any better.

[@nessieness5433]

He died and what happened to Catherine Parr afterwards? That is another episode, hopefully.

[@janefelix3821]

While her life was not that interesting afterwards, she only lived another 21 months, it did have a major impact as she took in Elizabeth and her next husband kept abusing her which created Elizabeth's distrust for men, thus why she never married, at least that is what a lot of historians feel feel.

12 - 19 - 20 King Henry died at 55 years old His three children ruled for a total of 55 years ( IRONIC ? ) ( COINCIDENCE ? )

[@janefelix3821]

He is also the only monarch in England to parent three future monarchs as none of them produced heirs.

Katherine probably experienced an evangelical conversion during the last 18 months of Henry’s reign as demonstrated by her book The Lamentations of a Sinner. She did not wish for further the Reformation when she first married Henry.

[@Pete856]

Why all the hatred for Henry, 3 of his wives survived their marriage, only 2 were beheaded and 1 died in childbirth.....that not too bad is it? BTW, I'm joking.

[@purphummus]

Dr Lipscomb is so pretty 😍

[@Bigapple01]

Those books, are they not the original ones that catherine had? Im just wondering why shes not wearing gloves while handling them 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@slytheringingerwitch]

Wearing cotton gloves to hold or turn the pages of a book or manuscript actually reduces manual dexterity, and increases the likelihood of causing damage. Gloves also have a tendency to transfer dirt to the object being consulted, and to dislodge pigments or inks from the surface of pages.

[@pirateloveification]

I wish this video went on to explain what happened after Henry died. Did her life end too?

[@janefelix3821]

No. She was the Queen Consort so she had some titles. However, she was not the Dowager, which implies the new monarch's mother, as she was not the mother of Edward VI, and though she was his step-mother, the Regents quickly took control of Edward as he was only 9,, and Catherine did not have any power over him. She did take into her home Elizabeth who was 13, Mary was 30 so she lived elsewhere. However, she quickly took up a relationship with Thomas Seymour and was remarried within a year. Within a few months she was pregnant, first time, and died as a result of childbirth, she was 36, about 21 month's after Henry died.

[@AngelaBuyck]

Ann eves survived also

Maybe they mean survived him in death sense she was his last wife.

Hello

[@sskura_x]

I will comment something I kinda found on a different video but I will add something: So technically, most of us would know that Anne Boleyn and Katherine Howard were cousins, right? Well, Thomas Seymour was actually Jane Seymour's Brother. And know we know that Catherine of Aragon is Catherine Parr's Godmother. Just in case some don't know, Anne Boleyn was Henry's 2nd wife and Katherine Howard was Henry's 5th wife and Jane Seymour was his 3rd wife and Catherine of Aragon was his 1st wife. Catherine Parr was his 6th wife. Edit: My sister was like "Lol, gardener's plan didn't work" XD

[@beckyshell4649]

Another connection in the fam was that Thomas Seymour molested the young princess Elizabeth when she lived with him and her stepmother. He also tried to marry Queen Mary. The royals like to keep their bloodlines close. Only in this generation have the royal lines strayed from marrying their kin. Phillip and Elizabeth shared Queen Victoria as a great-grandmother. This would not be a big deal under normal situations, but the families have been inbreeding for so many generations. Charles and Dianna were distant cousins also. The rest of the current family seemed to marry the commoners.

[@isobelduncan]

Jane and Anne were also second cousins.

[@Vivalefrance681]

No

[@anathorn1]

Betrayed?!? No...he betrayed many close to his heart & inner circle. Why are the narrators still kissing his a$$...almost in fear of their present day lives as if he's still alive seeking retribution. Horrible husband, horrible king, horrible parent.

Katherine parr didnt last long after henrys death as she went back thomas seymour ….and died of child bed fever 1548 buried at sudeley castle
