They were the two wives of Henry VIII's wives that infamously were beheaded.

A good way to remember what happened to which wife and in what order is:

Divorced (Catherine of Aragon)

Beheaded (Anne Boleyn)

Died (Jane Seymor)

Divorced (Anne of Cleves)

Beheaded (Catherine Howard)

Survived (Catherine Parr)
