When Edward VI ascended the throne he was a healthy plump with short, light orange colour hair similar to when he was an infant. His eyes were also a beautiful tiger-like golden. By the time he was in his third year of rule, he had lost weight but still remained a nice slim figure. Most historians speak of Edward as a "Sickly boy" but he was in great shape most of his life until he fell gravely ill in early 1553. Trust me I am a historian on the Tudor Dynasty and only that Dynasty. Edward was described as tall, handsome and intelligent. Yet only in his sixth year of rule Edward caught Tuberculosis. Then he was no longer the good looking youth he used to be. His body started swelling severely and a few days before the end of his life, he started producing bad odors. His final words were "I am faint. God have mercy on me and take my soul". Now Edward is finally at rest after a long, painful struggle. His remains lay at Henry vii lady chapel England. R.I.P. Eddy!
