I wish more documentaries would talk about how after Arthur died HenryVII kept Katherine of Aragon basically prisoner until her parents paid her dowry. She was not treated well at all until Henry VII died and then she married Henry VIII and we all know how that ended. She showed so much strength in not bending to Henry and Anne, right up to the end. She deserved better.

[@CocoaPuff01]

That's her parents fault, they cared more about the money than her freedom. They legally owed the debt

[@LanaWarzynski]

Your right

[@Headpfones]

It goes into more detail in documentaries about Queen Catherine , these ones have to let out details to fit all the queens

[@Headpfones]

Fun Fact: After the death of Queen Jane it was very hard to find another royal woman to merry Henry because they all kept rejecting him

[@badlongon525]

The irony of it all, Henry was succeeded by a woman. Something which he dreaded the most, he divorced Catherine for fear of such possibility.

36:09 I swear that is Benedict Cumberbatch 😂

[@DreamcatcherAcresFarm]

Oh lord i forgot he played that role because it is lol He played the 1st husband of Mary Boleyn in the movie The Other Boleyn girl.

[@Bellarose-r8u]

my fav documentory of the six wives!!

[@Dawn-we7vd]

Henry the VIII was miserable. He executed people because he could! Disgusting!

[@emilerose1424]

This is an informative documentary. Thank you for posting it. Good work. Note: The woman labeled as Owen Emmerson at 14:36 is probably Elizabeth Norton and the man labeled as Elizabeth Norton at 15:00 is probably Owen Emmerson. Thanks for the info.

[@LanaWarzynski]

Honestly i dont think he was that happy he got a boy i mean he got a boy with Katherine who dies months later so he was still holding his breath probably

[@italoluder]

I am puzzled that Anne Boleyn gets more compassion than Catherine of Aragon who stood by this crazy monster and just bc she couldt give him a son she was banned, humiliated. Really puzzles me. She had her fate coming. She wanted to be queen so badly and she didnt care who suffered for it. A pattern that can be found too nowadays. Women doing this to other women. She didnt deserve that ending. But still remains the fact that she took what wasnt rightfully hers. My compassion is very little therefore....

[@LanaWarzynski]

He did Katherine so bad she did not deserve what happened to her she was devoted to him and God and he just kicks her out like a bum

[@EggsandHam-xg2bs]

We don’t know how many choices were Anne’s own versus those of a social climbing family and a crazy narcissist with absolute power. All of his wives were victims, let’s just leave it at that.

[@sexibarbi92]

I sympathize with both. Anne never wanted to be queen. She tried to keep her distance from Henry VIII and just didn't want to be like one of his mistresses. Her family pushed her into the arms of the king and she couldn't say no. Anne Boleyn didn't have much of a choice. King Henry VIII was the main culprit, and it wasn't all her fault.

[@Headpfones]

If I had to give my best hypothesis, based on my observation from my research I think it’s because people so badly want Ann Boleyn and Queen Elizabeth 1st to be the same person if you know what I mean

[@HistorygalAnna]

You have some glaring inaccuracies in this documentary. Not impressed

[@CocoaPuff01]

Elaborate

[@DeltaKiloCharlie69]

It would be helpful if you could share what those inaccuracies are?

[@starbug345]

19:32 I’m not following. Can you reword?

[@DouglasSnodgrass]

So sad ann tried and Katherine was a ideal queen. And how important men were then compared to today. Where men are disregarded by women

[@hi-ls6lt]

I doubt you would have looked back on those times so fondly if you were a woman living in them. Surely you cannot be that dense could you?

[@JenkinsTim-h2y]

Williams Dorothy Clark Richard Rodriguez Ruth

[@stacyfrazierbauer8811]

These woman all look alike to me in their portraits and why did they murder everyone Dag!

[@NicoleSummerProductions]

Decent Documentary. Odd that the narrator has a weird echo, whereas guest speakers don't necessarily have that

[@ElijahElijah-rk2rw]

God, this is so boring….. awful

[@Eileeneez]

u have to be rlly intrested in this to make it not boring 😭😭
