The third of his wives was Jane Seymour, she lived from 1509 to 23.10.1537.

To honour also the other 5 wives here are their data plus some more information.

- Catherine of Aragón 15.12.1485-07.01.1536, married 1509, divorced 1533 (child Mary I.).

Catherine was the daughter of Fernando V. the Catholic of Spain and aunt of Emperor Charles V.. She first was married to Henry's elder brother Arthur, Prince of Wales and heir to the throne who died short time after their marriage and before he could become King. Catherine was then married by Henry, the next Prince in throne succession.

- Anne Boleyn 1507-15.05.1536, married 1533, beheaded (child Elisabeth I.).

Anne was the granddaughter of Thomas Howard and stayed at the court as of 1522, To marry her Henry abandoned the Catholic confession of the entire nation and let Archbishop Thomas Cranmer declare his marriage with Catherine of Aragón null and void. When Anne Boleyn did not give birth to a son Henry decided to go for another woman, the colourless Jane Seymour. As another divorce was impossible, he falsely accused Anne of adultery with a musician of her suite. Imprisoned in the Tower she had no chance of getting away, Henry was her murderer and she was his victim. Her executioner came from Calais as he was renowned for his perfect craft with the sword. At the time of her execution on the London Tower court scaffold Henry happily danced with Jane Seymour in the nearby palace. Henry and Jane married on the next day.

- Jane Seymour 1509-23.10.1537 , married on 16.05.1536 (child Edward VI.).

Jane Seymore was well beloved by Henry, she influenced him to reestablish his daughter Mary in throne succession but she died some days after giving birth to her son Edward.

- Anne of Cleves 22.09.1515-28.07.1557, married 1540, divorced in July 1540. Her Holbein portrait painting that Henry had ordered and the advice of Lord Chancellor Thomas Cromwell made him decide to marry Anne. Upon her arrival in London he found her not attractive and soon after their marriage and a couple of sexual failures in bed he started the divorce procedure and ordered the execution of Thomas Cromwell. Anne feared to be killed by her brothers if sent back to Cleves and stayed in England for the rest of her life always being a well received "sisterly" guest at court.

- Catherine Howard 1520-13.02.1542 was a niece of the Duke of Norfolk, she and Henry married in July 1540. After her flirting with a former friend during a rural hunting season was discovered her friend was imprisoned and tortured until confession, Catherine was accused of adultery, sentenced to death and beheaded in the Tower. Catherine Howard was pretty, sympathetic, charming, very generous but a bit too flighty.

- Catherine Parr 1509-07.09.1548, married Henry in July 1543 as her third husband. She tried to influence the Anglican church development and had one critical clash with Henry on religious issues. She barely managed the situation and refrained from power interactions thereafter.
