How old was Henry VIII when anne Boleyn was executed?

That may never be known because records of the time are not available. Some place it as early as 1499 and others as late as 1609.
Well we will probably never be sure but let's take a logical look at things. In 1514, Anne Boleyn wrote a letter to her father Thomas. She was at court attending on Margaret of Austria. Also if she had been born in 1507, as some historians believe, she would have been only 7 years old at the time she was attending on Margaret. This is impossible as ladies-in-waiting were required to be at least 12 years old. We can rule out 1499 because it has already been established that Mary was older than Anne. It is more likely that Anne was born anywhere from 1501-1503. Making Anne anywhere from 18-21 years old when she first caught the Kings attention. Anne could also have been born 1502- her father was influentul so he was able to sucure Anne a place attending Margaret. Education in the 1500s was strict and very formal- Children from Rich Families were hired tutors and by the age of 6/8 they would know French, Reading, Religon and some Mathematics.
nobody knows for sure. Some place her birth in 1501 some place her birth in 1507. It is somewhere between the two
Nobody Actually Knocks When Anne Boleyn Was Born Exactly But It Was Around 1501-1507 For Definate ;) xxx
No one knows but it was sometime in the early 1500s.
It is still debated to this day. However historians now focus mainly on two main dates of 1501 and 1507. There is more evidence to support the 1507 date.
How did Henry VIII meet Anne Boleyn?
Henry and Anne Boleyn met at court, once before his affair with her sister (Mary) and again after Henry had discarded Mary. Anne Boleyn's family had sent to her to France after her first meeting with the King, which did not go well, however they recalled her to England after Mary's failure to keep the King's attentions.
The Boleyn family, like many at the time, were always trying to gain power and one of the ways to do this was to use their daughters to engratiate the Henry with their family. This was a good stradegy, as Henry was known for giving titles, lands and fortunes to the families of his mistresses.
As a young person she wanted an education and developed an interest in church reform.
When she was in her early twenties, she wanted to have an advantagious marriage to a noble.
When Henry started showing an interest, she might have been afraid at first, but saw her advantage when he promised her his first marriage would be annulled.
In the years after that she wanted nothing more than an annulment and marriage to the king.
When she was married, she wanted to bear him a son.
When this did not happen, she wanted to survive.
In her last days, she might have desired a quick death.
