Anne Boleyn

Anne Boleyn gave birth to one daughter in 1533. The daughter, Elizabeth, grew up to be Queen Elizabeth I. Although Anne Boleyn was pregnant several times, only one living child was born.

Anne Boleyn was executed by beheading on the 19th of May, 1536 CE for the charge of adultery, incest, and treason.

Anne Boleyn had a temper. She loved Henry VIII and when she found out that he had a mistress, she often got angry and railed at him. There is a story that Anne Boleyn found Henry VIII with Jane Seymour on his knee when she was pregnant, around January 1536, and she grew very angry. She later apparently used this as a reason for her miscarriage.

No-one ever heard Henry say her name in public again but there are numerous accounts of him mentioning her.
*When Jane Seymour tried to take part in matters of state Henry used Anne as an example of what happens when wives interfere with affairs that do not concern them.
* When looking for another wife after Jane's death, a French candidate was suggested. Henry remarked that he was tired of women with 'french ways'
* When Anne of Cleves told Henry she wished to meet Princess Elizabeth Henry replied that Elizabeth's mother was so different to Anne of Cleves that the Princess wouldn't wish to meet her.

Thomas More was executed because he was against the annulment of the marriage of Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon. He was charged with treason because he would not go the to coronation of Anne Boleyn and was also charged with taking bribes.

Greensleeves was thought to be writtn by Henry VIII for Anne Boleyn, but now it has been confirmed that the song was likely to be written much later, in the 17th century.

Anne Boleyn was found guilty of treason by the authorities and was executed in the Tower of London by the official executioner on the 19 May 1536

Henry VIII was not present at the execution.

Jane Seymour died during the child birth of their son

I've read a lot on the subject of Henry VIII and his relationships with his six wives. (Or two wives if you believe all the annullments were valid...) Personally, I think what happened between him and Anne Boleyn was mostly lust, but I think his feelings for her, whatever they were, were genuine. However, Henry loved himself first and foremost, and he wanted a baby boy. Anne led him to believe that she, being young and healthy, would be able to produce a male heir. When she didn't, he felt betrayed, and retaliated by having charges fabricated to ensure her execution. I think in Anne he met his match; they were both strong personalities, both stubborn, from what we can gather. Henry maintained that his next wife, Jane Seymour, who died giving birth to their son Edward (who died at age 16) was his true wife. Some of this affection was probably due to the fact that she bore him a living son. However, she was also very obedient and very religious (possibly a closet Catholic in his newly-Protestant country), the exact opposite of Anne Boleyn (who was also actually very religious, but in a Protestant way, rather than Catholic). When Henry was sick and dying, it was Jane Seymour he called for, and he was buried next to her, although he widowed another woman. Also, he had her painted into family portraits as his wife and Queen after her death while he was married to other women. (Which actually isn't a very nice thing to do, when you think about it...)

Anne Boleyn was married on 28th June 1621 to Henry the 8th

Anne Boleyn was Henry 8th's wife but Henry didn't want her because he had Jane Seymour. It's not that she slept with but she didn't slept with someone. It's because Henry loved Jane because he thought she would give him a son.

Henry VIII and Jane Seymour were engaged to be married the day that Anne Boleyn died. They were married 10 days later.

Elizabeth Boleyn was no threat to the King and had no political importance, therefore, there was no reason to bring her down. The same was true of Mary Boleyn. As for Thomas Boleyn, he cheated death by participating in the trials of the four commoners accused of adultery with Anne, thereby condemning his own daughter. He clearly showed that his loyalties lay with the King rather than his own children, and by doing so saved his own life.

no she and Henry did not have a good marriage and it ended up with her getting beheaded

Queen Anne was accused and convicted of committing adultery with five men, incest with her brother, and plotting the King's death so that she could marry one of her supposed lovers. Mark Smeaton, Sir Henry Norris, Sir Francis Weston, Sir William Brereton, and George Boleyn were her supposed lovers.

Modern historians see her trial and conviction as a sham that her husband Henry VIII of England used to get rid of her and replace her with Jane Seymour, her lady-in-waiting. Only Mark Smeaton admitted to his guilt and gave evidence against the Queen, but since he was not a lord like the other men, he was not protected from being tortured-which he was.

The evidence the State presented against the Queen was insuficient in the sense that some of the dates of the supposed adultery did not match with the place of residence of the Queen-or the King, the men in question being in his household-and that all the other men denied their guilt. Regardless all the men and the Queen were found guilty and sentenced to death.

All the men died on May 17, 1536 by beheading, maintaining that they were not guilty-except for Mark Smeaton. Before being led to her death the Queen heard mass and swore on the eternal salvation of her soul that she was innocent of all charges, in the presence of the constable of the Tower of London. Her husband had ordered an executioner from France who used a sword rather than an axe as an act of mercy-but in order for the executioner to come on time the King would have had to have ordered the executioner before the trial. Queen Anne was beheaded in the morning on May 19, 1536.

On May 20, 1536 King Henry VIII of England announced his engagement to Lady Jane Seymour. Ten days later the two were married.

Anne Boleyn was educated at the french Court, as she was sent there when she was four by her mother to be schooled in the modern languages, deportment and how to serve the queen. She was tri-lingual, speaking fluent and impressive Latin, English and French. She was very interested in reading and music, and had a sweet soprano voice.

Anne Boleyn was described as being atractive though not possesing any beauty. One must first understand what beauty meant back then-having blue eyes,rosy skin e.t.c She had dark hair which could possibly have been either black or brown (judging from portraits) She also had 'milk-white skin' and eyes that were 'black and beautiful'. Overall having dark hair and pale skin would have given her a dramatic allure. There have been in adition a number of myths that she had a mole around her neck and a sixth finger e.t.c but there is no evidence that supports this-Henry VIII would not have been drawn to her had she had those deformaties. There have been a number of men at court that were in-love with her including the renaisance poet Thomas Wyatt who decribed her as 'this new beauty' as she had already had a dramatic affect of what people thought of beauty. Anne Boleyn I believe was very beautiful. With very long, rich and glossy jet black hair, and dark vivacious large brown almond alluring shaped eyes, but because her eyes and hair were so dark, it gave a dark look to her complexion, which was pale and she was also darkly seductive, for she had learnt the art of seduction at the royal Court of France. And learnt to understand several languages fluently. Although nowhere near as beautiful as the goddesses: Her sister, Mary Boleyn or Bessie Blount, both former mistresses of King Henry VIII. Also there is no chance that Anne was deformed, King Henry dismissed a French princess for having a discoloured finger nail, so he was hardly going to marry a woman, with a large mole on her neck, projecting front teeth and six fingers on her right hand, and would she be personally acquainted to be maid of honour to the Archduchess Margaret of Austria, in the Court of the Netherlands, and then lady in waiting to Princess Mary, Queen Consort of France, at the royal Court of France, then lady in waiting to Queen Claude of France, then a admired companion to Duchess Marguerite of Navarre, the beloved Protestant sister of King François I of France, as well as take part and also device masques to catch the eye of the King and then be lady in waiting to Queen Catherine Consort of England, a Princess of Castile and Aragon. And keep King Henry infatuated and inflamed for seven long years. So that is why I think she is very beautiful and not deformed. No court especially, the courts of France, the Netherlands and England would accept a deformed woman into their court.

Anne Boleyn was a native English speaker. She was also fluent in French and could read Latin.

She didn't. Historians are 99% sure she didn't. Sorry I can't cite sources because I don't recall what book I read this in, but I've read a few about her and I promise you that the document where it was first stated she had an extra finger was written long enough after her death that the author could not have known for himself. Also, having extra fingers was associated with witchcraft in the 16th century, and lots of people were trying to associate her with witchcraft, so saying she had an extra finger would have reinforced their argument. But honestly, would the King have risked marrying someone whose physical deformities betrayed them as a witch? I think it's highly doubtful he would have married her and made her his Queen (or that his ministers would have supported it, much less helped him), had she been witch-like at all.

a consort can ba a life partner (wife, husband) or a companion or better half. It can also be an associate or a troop.

Anne Boleyn had never been married before she married King Henry VIII, who was her husband until her death in 1536-when he ordered her execution.

Like many women in her time she was betrothed multiple times though, but these engagements were meaningless unless they were consummated-which they were not. The first and probably only betrothal was to the heir to the Earldom of Ormonde, James Butler.

There were rumors that Henry Percy, the heir of the Duke of Northumberland, fell in love with her but there is no proof of an engagement or even the love being returned.

It was also rumored that the poet Thomas Wyatt fell in love with her but that she denied him since he was married-some rumors say she didn't deny him.
