Was the rise of Henry Tudor to the throne of England inevitable?

The rise of Henry Tudor, later Henry VII, to the English throne was not strictly inevitable, but it was facilitated by a series of significant events and circumstances. The Wars of the Roses had left the English nobility fractured and weakened, creating an opportunity for a claim to the throne from a distant relative like Henry. His victory at the Battle of Bosworth Field in 1485 was aided by key alliances and the discontent with Richard III's rule. While his ascent seemed unlikely at various points, the chaotic political landscape ultimately paved the way for his success.

Why was Henry Carey not king?

Henry Carey, while rumored to be the lovechild of Mary Boleyn and King Henry VIII, was not considered an heir to the throne because he was never acknowledged as Henry VIII's child, let alone a legitimate child. This is the same reason Henry Fitzroy was not considered a Tudor heir; he was produced by an affair between the King and Bessie Blount, and therefore, declared illegitimate. Both Princess Mary (daughter of King Henry and Queen Katherine) and Princess Elizabeth (daughter of King Henry and Queen Anne) were declared illegimate at one point as well. However, his last wife, Catherine Parr, convinced him to restore them as legitimate and, thus, heirs to the throne. After King Edward (son of King Henry and Queen Jane) died after a short reign, Princess Mary became Queen, but was shortly overthrown in favor of Elizabeth, who would rule for decades.
