Best Answer

Henry Percy was not married to Anne Boleyn, but rather, supposedly, betrothed to her, which, at the time, was as good as a marriage contract. However, when Henry VIII 'took a fancy' to her, pressure was applied on Henry Percy to retract his intentions and he was married off to an eligible lady of court.

Percy was later to sit in the jury at Anne Boleyn's trial (when she was accused of adultery against Henry VIII) who collectively sent her to the block!

Did Henry VIII every want to marry Mary Boleyn?

No more than likely he did not. He may have loved her (or thought he did) and he even may have had fun with her in bed, but more than likely he did not want to marry her. For one she was already married when they started their affair. The second she was not exactly a good choice for Queen. She had been around while she was at the French court sleeping around with lots of men Francois I called her a weirdo and more infamous than anybody.

Who were Henry Fitzory and Henry Carey?

Henry Fitzroy, Duke of Richmond (1519 - 1536) was the illegitmate son of Henry VIII and his mistress, Elzabeth Blount. He died when he was 17. Henry Fitzroy was the only acknowledged illegitimate child of Henry VIII. Henry Carey (1526 - 1596) was the child of Mary Boleyn (sister of Anne). As Mary Boleyn had been a mistress of Henry VIII, there was much speculation that this child was also Henry VIII's. But this was never acknowledged. Mary Boleyn was actually married to William Carey. During the reign of Elizabeth I, Henry Carey became Baron Hunsdon and was eventually made Lord Chamberlain. He and Elizabeth were cousins through their mothers - but it is not beyond the realms of possibility that they were actually half brother and half sister!
