Best Answer

King Arthur is a legendary figure who is said to have lived in the fifth and sixth centuries. Whatever real person was the basis for the legends probably lived in the mid fifth century. Henry VIII on the other hand was a real king who lived from 1491 to 1547, becoming king in 1509, so obviously they were not brothers. Henry did have an older brother whose name was Arthur but he died when he was a teenager and never became king.

yes, his name was moldren his distany was to distroy arthur before he even knows him slef to be a king

***

Arthur had a foster brother named Kay. Kay may have been a little older than Arthur, but probably not by much. The above, I believe is an attempt at referencing Mordred, Arthur's son who was born of incest and was destined to destroy Arthur, his father. As for brothers, it depends on which source you're going by. In a Welsh poem, there is a mention of Arthur having a brother-in-law named Madoc. In Geoffrey of Monmouth's History of the kings of Britain, Arthur has a full sister named Anna, but no mention of a brother. Malory's Morte d'Arthur also has no mention of Arthur having a biological brother or half-brother.

In traditional Arthurian literature, Arthur had a foster-brother: Kay And three half-sisters: Elaine, Morgause and Morgan. Other texts have various relations. There is no one true answer. But most modern day scholars prefer to rely on the older/Medieval texts over anything from a modern novel.
