Answer King Henry VII did not execute his wife. He was born on 28th January 1457, became King after his victory at the Battle of Bosworth Field in 1485 and reigned until his death on 21st April 1509. His wife, Elizabeth of York, died of an infection following childbirth on 11th February 1503. He was succeeded by his son, King Henry VIII, who married six times, two of whose wives (Anne Boleyn and Katherine Howard) were executed.

Answer

Anne Boleyn, Henry's second wife was born between 1501 and 1507, married Henry in January, 1533 and was tried and beheaded for treason, witchcraft and incest on 19th May 1536 in The Tower of London.

King Henry's fifth wife, Catherine Howard, was born between 1520 and 1525, married the King on 28th July 1540 and was tried and beheaded for treason on 13th February 1542 in The Tower of London.

Other people executed by Henry the 8th during his reign include George Boleyn, Henry Norris, and Mark Smeaton, mainly because they were accused of treason and adultery with Anne Boleyn.
Henry VIII had 2 wives beheaded ( Anne Boleyn & Kathryne Howard), 2 got divorced (Cathrine of Aragon & Anne of Cleves), 1 died in child birth (Jane Seymour) & the last one (Katherine Parr) survived Yay!
