Henry was advised of the benefits of rehabilitating his image abroad by making a marriage with some noble or royal family. Most European royals weren't keen on an alliance with Henry, though, and he ended up with a choice between Anne and Amalia, the sisters of the Duke of Cleves. Cleves was a small German dukedom. He chose Anne as the older and more attractive of the 2.

      Well that was not something Henry wanted to announce to the court (especially given what George Boleyn read at his trial about Henry’s impotence and lack of pleasing a woman plus all the embarrassment to Henry in regards to divorcing Anne of Cleaves and his lack of potency). It was said Henry was always pawing Catherine Howard in public and going on about his marriage delights.

His head was displayed on a pole outside Westminster Hall until 1684. All his work was undone, his son Richard overgrown, and the British monarchy was restored. Several of Cromwell's children faced early deaths too.

      It was a Tudor thing, really. Henry VIII learned this behavior from his father Henry VII Tudor. Upon ascending the throne, Henry ordered his henchmen to destroy all written documents about his predecessor, Richard III, so that no 'evidence' of his reign would be left, especially the good things, which is why we for example don't know what happened to the Princes in the Tower. Henry Tudor burned all written documents. Now the petty, vindictive behavior of his monstrously obese, psychopathic son makes perfect sense, right? He had to learn it somewhere. Also, the fact that Henry VIII was a tall and fat womanizer comes from his grandfather, Edward IV. Henry took mostly after Edward, and then after his mother. Edward IV was also tall. Actually, he was and still is the tallest king on the throne of England, with hs grandson Henry VIII follow wing. Both Edward and Henry had girly voices, were womanizers (although Henry was more of a mislead romantic and serial monogamist, rather than a true fuckster, which Edward definitely was), and loved to gorge on enormous amounts of food, which is why both men grew massively obese in their mid 30s. Poor Henry VIII DEFINITELY inherited tge worst genes possible, or their combination.

    Henry's younger daughter Lady Elizabeth had grown to love her latest stepmother (and late mother's cousin) the new Queen Catherine who had been kind to her- and that the eight-year-old girl's reaction upon hearing of her stepmother's execution was to declare that she would NEVER marry ( regardless of this claim's validity, she managed to stay single the rest of her life even when teasing rival monarchs to do her favors for her to possibly consider marrying them).

      @@ruthbashford3176 That's a good question and I agree that virtually every woman who'd had family/friends who had gone through childbirth would have been quite aware of the risks.
      However, there is no record of Elizabeth expressing a fear of childbirth- and, in fact, when she was told of her cousin Mary's having safely borne the future James VI&I, Elizabeth was recorded as crying out 'Alak! The Queen of Scots is lighter a bonny son but I am of BARREN stock!'
      So, it's possible that Elizabeth had reason to believe that she had fertility issues.
      OTOH, she kept teasing male kings via dangling the possibility of her marrying them IF they did her political favors well into her late 50's with her courtiers even claiming that God had somehow miraculously preserved her body to be able to safely bear children that late!
      Of course, she often disdained marriage one time holding up someone's wedding ring and sniffing that ' I should call it a YOKE ring!'

    Henry had no problem with having a first child with any woman, but a second child with the same woman never occurred. Also he seems to have become noticeably unbalanced in 1540 & started killing everyone, suggested not least by his own contrite retrospection.
    I'd guess he inherited this from his great-grandmother, Jacquetta of Luxembourg. Her male descendants reproduced themselves poorly, whereas her female ones did not.

Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not King, because you know that the Lord will reward each one for whatever good they do, whether they are slave or free.
