The Six Wives of Henry VIII - Part 2 

It's because the wives had to work and suffer for what they got, and that kind of thing builds characters and forces you to be smart and strategical, while Henry VIII just got everything handed to him. Like many historical kings, he was a spoiled brat who grew up to be a tyrant who couldn't take the word "no".

I agree.

And yet I have to learn about him... Smh

@Charisma 101 yes

LMAO *wanting to have a Male heir is not a personality trait*💅

Holbein being an artist may have over emphasized Anne's looks something Henry understood after seeing her. There's another portrait of Anne by Barthel Bruyn the Elder that be a closer representation. The real beauty in her family was her sister Sybilla who was married to John Frederick I Elector of Saxony.

@@einezcrespo2107 yeah, but it's Henry VIII we are talking about. If it was really exaggerated, Holbien's head would have been up on a spike with Cromwell's. He still painted the royal family after that. It's pretty obvious it was just because Henry's ego was wounded.

Einez Crespo people who wrote about Anne Cleves Said she was beautiful

Anubrata Bit he was the one who was unattractive and smelled like rotten flesh

although she wasn't the main beauty of the family, henry was the only person who ever actually called her ugly i believe

Back in the 1500s you split the church so you can become an ex

He only executed two of his Wives... lol!!🤦

Chykim Sanders *ONLY* yea oNLy two wives no biggie, lmao

Avery Martin what do you mean?

Zimmer games Zimmer c, becuase he planned to execute all his wives but only succeeded with executed two ( Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard) He wanted to execute Anne of Cleves but he didn’t want to make the Germans mad He planned on executed Parr but she changed his mind by saying she was doing what she did to make Henry happy Who knows what would have happened to Jane if she didn’t die in childbirth

Uno reverse! 😂😂

I was mad when they said she had an affair with that guy. Cause if I'm right she was raped (unless I'm just really slow and tired)

@@Eatanaloguehorror She had an open affair. She wasn't raped.

@@bibi-we4lg Nah she was raped and forced go play it like it was an affair.

BrOSKi She was not raped! Get your facts right, have you seen the letter Katherine Howard sent to her lover?

@@vanessasoto4046 my comment addresses that. She was forced to write it to make it seem consensual.

Indiegirl007 EXACTLY!!!🤨

But in a way, that saved her

“Hey, I heard a story about someone wanting to trick their future lover and pretended to be a stranger, then got insulted by her because she didn’t recognize him, so he became salty and told everyone she was ugly.” “That seems like something a middle schooler would do lol.” “Actually it was a guy about 48 years old.” Sounds so petty when you think about it.

True

@@jarzus4251 yeah

I bet Anne was laughing hysterically, in the afterlife

Ann loves a good joke

I’m sure Ann is laughing at him now and blowing him raspberries

Catherine and Anne both laughing from beyond the grave when their daughters both become queen

It’s honestly the most beautiful middle finger from beyond the grave.

Pink Otaku_223 ha! Hetalia pfp! I love Hetalia!

Nicole Harrell When my son was newly born, I died

She was also the only one who gave him a healthy son

Nicole Harrell I see you

Looks like she lived a happy life on her own, with much more personal freedom than most women in that time. Kind of just and nice to know.

VomitousLeviathan No you’re not 😂

VomitousLeviathan Dude believe me, I was saying the same damn thing

She was always my favorite. They make it out like we should feel sorry for her because Henry didn't like her looks. But she was probably good looking and he simply hated her reaction to him (we all know a sour-grapes guy like that). In the end, she dodged a bullet; she didn't die at his hands, and never had to sleep with him. Also, that wedding ring line - "a thing of no value" - makes me love her more.

She really was

It is the 1500’s and she was French . Like ... Death was the only option . If only it was 2020 .

Uncharted Raider Not sure that 2020 treats sexual assault survivors that much better then 2015 though... 😖

@XDranzer000 But they're right? What the hell are you on?

@XDranzer000 their not edgy their right

@@Momof4. - *THEY'RE

there was definitely a big chance she had romantic and sexual relationships against her will. also she wAS abused most likely sexually by thomas (the courtier). ALSO. THERE. WAS. A. LAW. MAKE. SPECIFICALLY. TO. HAVE. HOWARD. FOUND GUILTY. she was also in her teens when all of this happened.

I am 100% she was raped and molested, but who will believe a teenage girl?

SAACHI CHAKRAVARTY This is called the male privilege dear . At it’s highest in the 1500’s .

Well, she did, but not willingly. During the marriage her cousin, Thomas, blackmailed her to make love to him. She hated him after that, and she tried to tell the king but he didn’t believe her. Fortunately he took no notice to the way she was acting around her cousin (at that time). So then when the king finally noticed, he was INFURIATED! He made laws to find her guilty to behead her out of rage. There is no proof of this, but there is a rumor that before she was beheaded, she was begging for her life. The king wouldn’t listen, and I think (a conspiracy of my own) that a friend of hers, that she was very close too, told the king but was too late because she was held back by the guards. The king didn’t believe the friend, but then more friends of Catherine shared the same story and he believed them. Then he regretted what he had done. But moved on, he was still sad and angry which is probably why he treated Parr with such disrespect.

It was romantic but really rapy

Strange_humans645 2 yeah. I think that’s why it was in my recommended.

Not gonna lie your pretty sad person if your watching this for fun dying inside but wanna understand the musical mote

Popular name in that time. But it seems there was not much real lasting love involved...

My exact though after watching this 🤣

you could say......he had an abundance of katherines (its a book by john green)

I wouldn't say "loved" as much as "lusted after". Considering how quick he was to murder or throw them aside, I don't think there was ever any love in his dead little heart.

3 Catherines 2 Annes 1 Jane

trashy._.potata sane bro

Same

Wasn't that from horrible histories originally?

Stella Haydon-smith uh no that has been a rhyme to remember Henry VIII’s wives

@@stellahaydon-smith8221 It's a rhyme said mainly in England, because it's history that occurred in England, primarily schools to help teach kids about the 6 wives of Henry VIII. I happened to learn it from Six the Musical because I'm american

That made me laugh soo much

I thought they were gonna say "the only wife he truly loved"

@@jadynbonewitzthe rest of the Queens: Rude

@@Lanchrymuse when my son was newly bornnn I died

@@simplyabandoned9547 but I'm not what I seem,or am I?

You can't deny the king, and they're not the ones who decide it anyway.

Mallery Unfortunately this is true

Mallery So it is death with no escape .

Chykim Sanders lmfao

Yup. He was so fat at that point that he had impotence issues.

"Mate, just shut up! I wouldn't be such a b**** if you could get it up!"- Anne Boleyn

Annette Greenberg And at the end ... She was right .

So true. He never got another woman pregnant.

I will have to listen to the video again but Henry was buried next to Jane Seymour. His 3rd wife and mother of Edward. Catherine Part was his 6th wife who outlived him.

Sorry, I listened again and realized I misunderstood your comment.

Vonnie Cao omg😂 like Henry did you look in a mirror today?

The lady said in the video, anne partically turned him away which was embrassesing for him so to divert the shame away from him, he had to make her seem ugly.

Projecting much, Henry???? Gigantic pot in the room, calling the kettle black (to paraphrase the old saying).

i thought you meant anne boleyn sjskskks

Andrew Register a real narcissist 🤮

reminds me of my ex

Katherine Howard protection squad . ACTIVATED !

can i join

@@srbaluran Welcome to the club, soldier! Here **hands you a pitchfork** you'll need this

Who can blame her for wanting to run away and marry Thomas? Have you _seen_ Henry? He's hideous.

Fall in love eh, and what do you plan to do to her once you "fall in love" with her?

Catherine Parr was the one who taught Elizabeth everything she knew tho.

Then generations later Queen Victoria ruled for 61 years and Elizabeth II ruled for 68. Take that Henry!

@@XxAgeofLovexX they meant that anne boleyn was talking to catherine of aragon. ^^

@@celesdere I know, i'm just saying that since Anne Boleyn wasn't around Elizabeth for that long, she didn't have many women to look to. Parr was her role model as she was distinguished and fought highly for women to be able to be literate and such.

@@XxAgeofLovexX i know very well. i'm sorry if i seemed rude.

Brilliant lol.x

Good one

well y u marry him then?

@@wrongturnVfor They didnt have a choice the HAD to marry the king.

@@chaiwriter1531 umm...Anne Boelynn didnt, Anne of Cleeves didnt. While they would have been pressured to marry him had that been the case, many of them actually were willing to do so. We often assume everything was imposed on women. But in some cases, women agreed with it - actually agreed not because of any pressure

Lmao I remember that

😂😂

The first Catherine that Henry married is Catherine of Aragon, also known as Catalina de Aragon, Henry's first wife. DIVORCED The second Catherine that Henry married is Catherine Howard, or Katherine with a K. She is Henry's fifth wife. BEHEADED The last Catherine and also the last wife Henry married is Catherine Parr, the sixth wife. SURVIVED. Sideline: Rumor has it that Henry also has his eyes on the seventh wife, Catherine Brandon. But he didn't survive to dump Cathie Parr and marry Cathie Brandon. Looks like this king likes women named Catherine.

@@neutralpie420 catherine brandon was catherine parr’s friend, she helped take care of her daughter after catherine died in childbirth and her husband thomas seymour was beheaded

I just say Aragon Howard and Parr when I talk about them lmao

Well, Jane Seymour was a Jane and she married king Henry VIII as well 😂

@@juliahope7100 Wow that went over ur head, lol nice try though 😂

@@lalalashes7692 I am aware that you most likely mean that king Henry married or at least had at a lot of interests in 'Catherine's and Anne's', no need to be aloof.

@@juliahope7100 Clearly u don't understand, are u that dumb 😂 plz shut up

But Mary was his daughter?

Divorced Beheaded Survived

And tonight we are LI LI VE !!!

Listen up! Let me tell you a story~

A story that you think you've heard beforree

I know you know our names and fate and our faces

kai plus watch the mistresses video and there are even more!

Three wives not 4. Catherine of Aragon, Katherine Howard, and Catherine Parr. His other wives were Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, and Ann of Cleves.

@@sandilou2U lol oops 🤷

@@sandilou2U but he had his eye on a 4th victim, oops I mean Catherine. And then he died. Woo

@@musclemanmyles3665 BUT THE FUCKER DIED WOOO /Ref

“I’m the queen of the castle, get down you dirty rascal, GET DOWN”

What the hell catherine was 16 had been molested abused and used all her life she didn’t know any better shame on you

bs_arwensingh It’s referencing Six the Musical... Look it up. The song literally talks about her life & how her childhood was taken away. “Playtime’s over. The only thing you wanna do is- 💋 ah~”

Holy Namjoon give jimin some jams Army and horrible histories ? Best combination I never knew I needed

Catherine of Aragon was one, she failed to give me a son

I had to ask her for a divorce, that broke her poor heart of course

that's scary

She's right though.

Andrew Register still a great king tho. Long live Henry VIII

roflol (>L

@@SomethingInteresting001 he dead so I'm afraid it's not possible

@@MaddiKathleen it's an expression. In French it's normal to say long live Emperor Napoleon, though he died in 1821. You say it to imply, long live his memory, long live his soul. It's a way to denote respect for a monarch.

Actually that was Mary Queen of Scotts and it was three swings. Because Katherine had practiced positioning her head all night the executioner was able to cut her head off with one swing.

Half sister

Another Person who sees how Clever Jane was

She was the prettiest she just broke Henry’s ego and he just made it seem like she was ugly because he had that much power so people believed it

@@juliaansimbx Absolutely!

same here!

Hi

Nafisa Ratree TWICE

And you're gonna hear em live, in consort

Omg me too!!!

I sleep to these every night docs help me sleep and learn!

Sweet N Sour I know that’s right, I truly agree!

also not a single contemporary portrait of anne boleyn survives and it is likely the same happened with katherine howard as henry wanted to destroy anything that had to do with them

There is actually a possibility she was as young as 17

Some people at the time were, others weren't

"The Gloriana sister"

Its Anna of Cleves (Anne if you want to use her English name)

@@learninghistorywithbrooke Thank you for pointing that out.

@@thatonefandomlover no problem :)

@@learninghistorywithbrooke Anna is the Latin for Anne, just as Katherine is the Latin for Catherine. Historically, she's Anne of Cleves.

technically, it's annulled, not divorced

Yet Catherine Howard was dead about 2 years after Henry. She remarried about 11 months later, became pregnant within two months and died in childbirth. While Anne Cleves outlived them, Catherine of Aragon had the longest life, died around 50. But being the aunt of the the dual King of Spain and Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, Car/Carlos was her nephew, Henry would think twice on killing her.

@@janefelix3821 if henry did kill catherine of aragon well england he would face an coalition invasion force like what france did to louis xvi

@@doeweeyah1236 The coalition force against France in 1792 failed and the French leader who repelled it, Napoleon, became more powerful. Chances are England in 1530 was not powerful enough to repel a coalition force. Even though Henry's sister was Queen Consort of Scotland, the Scots were not on the best terms with England. Plus England had not built up their navy in 1530 and most importantly, many English were Catholic and would have backed the invading force.

EXCUSE ME?!

hey there

everything I have ever read says that their heads were there. Rotting yes but still there.

They leave up heads to rot like that one person in town does with christmas decorations in July

Eh ...the heads were left there.

Its kinda stupid arguing about history as if you were there
