Were there any problems when Henry viii divorced catherine of aragon?

Soon after, Henry started affair with Mary Boleyn and decided for a divorce from Catherine of Aragon.

Why did Henry VIII marryCatherine of Aragon?

Henry VII had only recently become King of England by defeating Richard III, and was intent on establishing the Tudor Dynasty. Key to this was to win recognition (and therefore legitimacy) from the other royal families on the Continent by arranging a marriage between his oldest son and heir (Arthur) to an eligible princess of a prominent power. In this case, that was Spain. Henry also drove a hard bargain for a substantial dowry to accompany her. Arthur and Catherine were married, but shortly after, Arthur died (popularly attributed to "consumption"). This put the marriage alliance with Spain in jeopardy, but even worse for Henry VII was that it meant that he might have to return the dowry! His solution to both questions was to marry Catherine to his second son, the future Henry VIII. As marriage to the deceased older brother's wife was then considered incestuous, Henry VII successfully petitioned the Pope for dispensation, claiming that, although married to Catherine, Arthur had never consummated the marriage.Years later, when Henry VIII sought to divorce Catherine, his argument to Rome was that Arthur had indeed consummated the marriage before his death, and that Catherine's subsequent re-marriage to Henry was incestuous, and should be annulled.M.

How do you remember the chronological order of Henry VIII wives?

[1] The saying "One died, one survived, two divorced, two beheaded" doesn't help in the chronological ordering of six wives of King Henry VIII of England. [2] For the order was actually divorced Catherine of Aragon, beheaded Anne Boleyn, died Jane Seymour, divorced Anne of Cleves, beheaded Catherine Howard, survived Catherine Parr.


Who did Catherine of aragon first marry?

Prince Arthur of Wales (1486 - 1502) the first son of Henry VII, the first Tudor king, and Elizabeth of York, and Henry VIII's older brother, died on 2 April 1502 at the age of 15. It is not completely clear what he died of, but it may have been consumption (TB). He was already married to Princess Catherine of Aragon on 14 November 1501 - so they were married for only 5 months, but after he died, Catherine eventually became betrothed to Henry (they did not get married until 1509). Prince Arthur was laid to rest in Worcester Cathedral, England
