How did Henry VIII meet Anne Boleyn?

Henry and Anne Boleyn met at court, once before his affair with her sister (Mary) and again after Henry had discarded Mary. Anne Boleyn's family had sent to her to France after her first meeting with the King, which did not go well, however they recalled her to England after Mary's failure to keep the King's attentions. The Boleyn family, like many at the time, were always trying to gain power and one of the ways to do this was to use their daughters to engratiate the Henry with their family.

Did Henry get a male son?

King Henry VIII actually had multiple male children. From an admitted mistress, Bessie Blount, Henry fathered her son, named Henry Fitzroy. He was illegitimate, as Henry was not married to Bessie Blount, and thus, he was not a male heir, though he was a male son. Henry also had a son with his third wife, Jane Seymour, named Edward. He would succeed his father as King for a short time before his death as a teenager. In addition, depending on which historian you believe, many think that King Henry also had a male son with Mary Boleyn. It is common knowledge that the King had a brief affair with Mary Boleyn, sister of Anne Boleyn. During the assumed time period of their affair, Mary birthed two children: Catherine and Henry Carey. While there is no secure evidence for this suspicion, the time-line and the King's extravagant treatment of Henry Carey provide circumstantial evidence for the case.

Did Henry the eight had a son with Mary Boleyen?

Henry had an acknowledged illegitimate son: Henry Fitzroy (1519 - 1536) Duke of Richmond (by Henry's mistress Elizabeth Blount) There may have been other illegitimate children, possibly by Mary Boleyn, (and in particular her son, Henry Carey) another of Henry's mistresses and sister of Anne Boleyn; but they have not been confirmed or acknowledged, mainly because of the timing of their relationship and the date of birth of Henry Carey.


Why was Henry Carey not acknowledged by Henry V111?

There are many reasons why King Henry never acknowledged Henry Carey. It is possible that King Henry was NOT the father of Mary Bolelyn's son, as he was birthed after the affair ended. It's widely debated as to whether or not Henry was conceived within the correct timeframe to the King's son. (Meanwhile, Mary's daughter, Catherine, was conceived and birthed during their affair-- irrelevant to the question, but food for thought). It is also possible that King Henry never acknowledged Henry Carey because, upon his birth, the King had fallen in love with Mary Boleyn's sister, Anne. Admitedly marrying his own son's aunt could have been quite troublesome for the King's reputation and spiritual wellbeing, which is held to the highest esteem.
