Henry VIII was very young, vigorous, handsome and slim in his early years. Henry was active, he danced, rode a horse, and did other strenuous exercise. But he had an accident and hurt his leg.

In October 1537, Jane gave birth to the son Henry desperately wanted. He was called Edward and would be the future Edward VI. However, just 12 days after the birth of Edward, Jane died of septicemia. Henry was distraught. It would be three years before he married again. Such was his love for Jane, that Henry ordered that he should be buried next to her when he died. After that Henry became very depresses and started drinking too much and started getting very obese.
