He got a divorce with Catherine to marry anne, although Catherine refused the divorce and Anne was never divorced. Henry had her beheaded for "adultry" and for "bewitching" him, but he really just got bored with her and she hadn't produced a male hier (although she did have Elizabeth)

∙ 13y agoCatherine was originally Henry's older brother's wife but when the brother died, Henry married Catherine who was much older than he. Henry wanted a male heir, Catherine had one daughter with Henry and many miscarriages. Henry later fell in love with Anne Boleyn, the sister of his mistress, Mary. Catherine was 42 at the time and could no longer conceive a child, so Henry annulled their wedding and then married Anne Boleyn in an attempt to have a son. Unfortunately, King Henry III had syphilis and therefore made it difficult for his many wives to conceive. He never had a legitimate son.
