Did Queen Elizabeth II ever see her uncle King Edward viii?
Yes, growing up, Elizabeth would have seen her uncle who was then the prince of wales at numerous family events as well as his future wife, Wallis Simpson who refereed to her as Shirley Temple. Following Edward's abdication from the throne in 1936 when Elizabeth was 10, his relationship with the rest of the royal family became strained and spent most of the remainder of his life in Paris. Despite this, Edward did return to London in 1952 for the funeral of his brother, King George VI at which he would have undoubtedly encountered Elizabeth. He also visited London in 1965 where he met with Queen Elizabeth II and his sister Mary. Shortly before his death in 1972, the queen, her husband Prince Phillip, and her son Prince Charles visited Edward at his home in Paris. I'm sure that their may have been a couple of other occasions when Elizabeth would have seen her uncle during the later part of his life.

Edward VIII abdicated in order to marry Wallis Warfield Simpson, an American divorcee. After he relinquished the throne and, of course, the title and position of King, he was named Duke of Windsor.

What happened to traitor cardinal pole King Henry?
Nothing happened to Cardinal Pole, but I believe that's because he kept out of Henry's way and lived abroad until Henry was dead! Pole became a servant of the Pope and was a member of the organising committee of the Council of Trent 1546/64! This Latin Council organised what became a reactionary council that is responsible for what John Evelyn's Diary refered to as ',their New Trent Religion,'.This refered to what some people considered a coup at the Council elevating the papacy well above its station and boosting the Suburbicarian Roman Church. After that when Queen Mary became Head of the Church, and endevoured to align the Anglican Church with the New Trent set up ,Cardinal Pole was made Archbishop of Canturbury. He did the business smoothly but the pope distrusted him and they became estranged and it lookd at one time as though the cardinal would be called ,'to Rome'! However, both the Queen and her cousin Pole became ill and died a few hours of each other in`1558!
