Answer
Henry Tudor, better known as King Henry VIII of England, did not "order Katherine Howard's head to be cut off."
Katherine was the fifth of the King's six wives, and she was aged between 15 and 20 when she married him - her exact date of birth is not recorded.
She had affairs with other men before and after her marriage to Henry VIII, and when Henry was told, he at first refused to believe it. Her adultery was held to be treason and she was tried and convicted of this offence by a Court of Law.
She was executed by beheading on 13th February, 1542.

∙ 14y agoKatherine Parr was not beheaded, she was Henry VIII's sixth and last wife, and outlived him. The two wives beheaded were Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard, so you are probably thinking of Catherine Howard.
Catherine Howard (c1520 - 1542) was Henry VIII's fifth wife, and a great deal younger than Henry (1491 - 1547). Henry and Catherine were married on the day that Thomas Cromwell (Henry's chief minister who fell from grace) was executed, 28 July 1540. Catherine was not only a cousin of the ill fated Anne Boleyn (Henry's second wife) but was a niece of the Duke of Norfolk. Henry was extremely happy with her, but Catherine made the terrible mistake of having an affair with a cousin of her mother's, Thomas Culpepper, which was a treasonable offence. Henry had always seen Catherine as his "rose without a thorn", despite the eventual gossip about her previous affairs which had taken place when she was younger. Henry was said to have cried when the truth was brought to him.
Catherine was arrested and placed in custody, but not before she had tried to intercept Henry when he was coming out of mass at Hampton Court. She is said to have run screaming down a corridor but was stopped by guards. Her ghost is said to haunt that corridor. (I have been there, and it is rather eerie).
She was eventually taken to the Tower of London by barge on 10 February 1542. Due to be executed on the 13th, Catherine asked for the block to be brought to her so that she could practice putting her head upon it. On the 13th February 1542 she went to her execution, which was over very quickly. Her body was placed in the chapel of St. Peter ad Vincula at the Tower, to join that of her cousin Anne Boleyn.
Henry VIII married Katherine Parr, his last wife, on 12 July 1543. Henry died on 28 January 1547.
