Divorced, beheaded, died. Divorced, beheaded, survived.
This documentary explores each woman who was married to the tyrant king - Henry VIII. He is known for his unconventional and highly disruptive rule of England. In his life he had six wives; Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves, Kathryn Howard and Catherine Parr.
Life as a Tudor woman was difficult at the best of times, but when you’re married to a tyrant king, it can be so much worse.
Your every move scrutinised for treason.
Your every motive is questioned.
Treated as little more than a broodmare, or a lamb to the slaughter.
Each wife presented a new option for Henry to get his wish of a son and eventual heir to his throne. However things were not so straightforward. For ultimately this is a story of miscarriage, divorce, betrayal and beheadings.

Anne of Cleaves is my favorite. She not only escaped Henry with her head still attached to her body, but she became an independently wealthy woman who lived life on her own terms. That was so rare in Tudor England. She played it perfectly.
The independent wealth came with strings attached: Anne had to remain in England.
Also lived the longest
@@gidzmobug2323that may well have worked for her
I so agree 👍 Anne of Kleve was so lucky. Nonetheless, she had the German protestant princes backing her. Henry had to treat her gently because her relations were too powerful. If he executed Anne the Protestant league would have been pushed into the arms of the Habsburg emperor
@@rolandrothwell4840 That was also the same reason why Henry did not execute Katherine of Aragon: he didn't want her nephew (the Holy Roman Emperor) declaring war on him. Henry was already at odds with the Church because he had broken away from it. If Spain started something, then every other Roman Catholic nation would pile on (Henry was, by this point, seen as a heretic).
Ignored, beheaded, died, annulled, beheaded, barely survived and only because he died
Annulled, beheaded, died, annulled, beheaded, survived - because he died ^^
He never divorced anyone.
Oh. But

Jane just died before she could make Henry mad enough to have her executed about something
HELP MEEE 😭😭😭
The narrator at 29:53 was wrong about saying Anne of Cleves outlives Henry by 5 years when it's actually 10 years. Henry VIII died in 1547, Anne of Cleves died in 1557. Also towards the end of the video, it says Katherine Parr died in child birth "few years later" after Henry died but it was actually later the following year.
Ikr. And I'm gonna sound picky, but the narrator also says Henry executed a "few" wives even though it's bleeding obvious from the programme's title that he executed a couple, not a few. Nor was Wolsey sentenced to death. Nor was Henry unconscious or brain damaged in the jousting accident, according to the most reliable sources. Katherine Parr didn't survive Henry by a few years. She died the year after his death.
It's meant to be a documentary, not historical fiction, where you can play fast and loose with facts.
@@NickMaybrick Exactly but these shorts especially if dealing with history need to have irrefutable facts not inaccurate information. The films and multiple TV series already do it enough with their fantasy/fiction twists to the historical accounts. If you're going to put something on social media it needs to be accurate. Inform and educate people with facts not lies.
@@NickMaybrick, quite a lot of historians mention Henry's jousting accident and unconsciousness, including Suzannah Lipscomb, Lucy Worsley and even David Starkey.
@@NickMaybrickWolsey was on his way to the Tower on a charge of high treason. This carried a death sentence.
Some think that the 1536 jousting accident did something to Henry that affected him during the rest of his reign (I am guessing a concussion).
Katherine Parr was not the first protestant queen
Henry blamed everyone for his failings & never himself!
Henry didn't think consequences applied to him
Sounds like a former (thank heavens) president who-shall-not-be-named.
Don’t we usually refer to that as someone who is “emotionally disturbed”
@@aprilgrant1957 The once and future....take it to the bank.
Henry was more influenced by wanting his own way than he was by Anne Boleyn or anyone else. He was a gigantic toddler who died a well-deserved painful miserable death. After all the fighting for Henry to divorce Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn only lived 4 months longer than Catherine did. Anne of Cleves was the luckiest of all Henry's wives. Can not even imagine having to copulate with that ulcerous bulk.
I love that owen said that there was smelly ugly person in the room and it wasnt anne of cleves.
You know what they say when you point the finger there are always 3 pointing back at you!
I love it too but Owen totally ripped that quote off from another historian. Can't recall her name off the top of my head.
That's something Henry never understood. To me, he was one of the most obnoxious people from history. One wants to see him cast out of his kingdom in his petticoat. He wouldn't do as well as Elizabeth in those circumstances.
“Bedheaded” is a great typo 😂
Anne of Cleves for the WIN!!
I adore these ladies, all of them, even the shamelessly scandalous ones, but Anne Of Cleves, she is the one I not only adore, but i respect and admire her tenacity and her intellect as well!🥀
As a psychotherapist, I find Henry’s narcissism and his wives’ personalities so very interesting!🎉
Henry wasn’t a narcissist. He had a traumatic brain injury. Scary to think that you’re charging people for your services.
@@direfranchementyou’re entitled to your opinion. Sorry you have so much anger over a Henry VIII comment…
@@wlenore8071 As an alleged professional, you should be more responsible in casually labeling people, dead or otherwise.
I think I’m entitled to my
Opinion and you can have yours. Thanks! 😊
@@wlenore8071 No. You introduced yourself as a “psychotherapist”, and your “opinion” under a (likely false) claim of professional credibility like a diagnosis. That is wrong.
I love Tudor history ❤️
same
Me too!!
Me too! It's in our DNA. My family is from Henry VIII's sister, Queen Margaret Tudor of Scotland.
While wealthy men and women were dying left and right in the castle peasant farmers were chilling in their herb gardens
Jane was the “little nun”. Katherine the Humanist. Ann the Reformer. Catherine Parr the Protestant.
Catherine and Arthur had a final, proper Wedding at St Paul's and moved to Ludlow together.
Thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing.
Henry the Eighth was NOT divored; his marriages were ANNULLED.
Same difference.
not at all. an annulment is a declaration that a marriage never existed, a divorce is the ending of valid marriage@@direfranchement
@@glen7318 WRONG.
@@direfranchementNope that’s correct. Google it ass
@@direfranchement please dont say such foolish things. An annulment is permitted in the Catholic Church, because it is not a divorce, It is saying that there was no valid marriage. A divorce is saying that there was a legal marriage and now for various reasons it has been ended.
Crazy to think there have been 3 Tudor kings, and 9 queens.
Glad you're not including Jane Grey.
she was a queen though@@lesleymay8006

I love Catherine's courage the most. Imagine she was pregnant and lead an army and she freaking won!
I see a lot of conspiracies involved in this story. Especially, after his fatal brain injury. Think about this, he stayed with Catherine(loyal or not) for 20 years. In those days and times, having an heir or even a son is super important given that it has always been a patriarchal society. Anne boelyn was the love of his life. When they met as they were destined to, they loved dearly. He wasn’t supposed to be a king but he did. Now that he fell in love as a man would, his honour pride and power was in question. For 20 years he had been nice to Catherine. It was never about not having the son. He could have easily married any other woman for it or keep trying with Catherine. Had the fate not decided to bring Anne as his one true soulmate or animus, he would have chosen the easier path of staying with Catherine and kept Anne as his mistress. But love is the most powerful thing in the world. To be recognised as your lover’s spouse and to own your lover exclusively is what life is all about. But life is not fair. Look at Charles and Camilla or Harry and Megan versus a commoner. Even Edward gave up his throne to marry his lover Wallis.
The tragedy was envy they had gathered due to the passionate love. How can a man live a perfect life? Be throned rich powerful with access to women abd finally marry the woman he loves so much? The society isn’t jealous of anything but love. Love conquers all. Because they misused their power and lived vicariously without considering the consequences of envy and politics, they could have been poisoned, conspired against leading to their fall.
When you are in love, love is blind dumb and deaf and the best thing in the world. But be thankful to the divine and trust his timing. If god gave you the precious gift of love then worship it but also do good things to the world not just human beings but the nature and environment.
It is important to know that when love isn’t appreciated then you will lose it. The vibration of love is the most powerful.
Wolsley wasnt sentenced to death. He wasnt even tried.
Good stuff! Thank you!
Disappointed that a channel who uses the most prominent historians in the UK has misinfo. Oh, and caught the scene in "The Other Boleyn Girl" again, i.e. Mary's wedding.
Anyone else notice Benedict Cumberbatch at 22:30??
I did a double take
Yep a scene from the Other Boleyn Girl
Yes saw him too
I hit rewind. So cool to see him. Thanks for pointing it out.😎
I love learning about our history, good and bad
This is just a shorter version of your documentary series about Henry. If you're recycling videos it would be nice if you said so.
It amazes me that people doubt Catherine and Arthur didn't have sex. She admitted it herself, before one of her ladies interviened and claimed she was still a maid. Her lady said the language barrier explained why she said she had lost her virginity when she hadn't. Obviously, Catherine figured out why she had to say she was still a virgin and held onto the claim until her dying breath
Does someone know the name of the ending song? I could not find it anywhere...
Hard to believe that Catherine's parents sponsored Christopher Columbus' trip to the discovery of North America.
Why hard to believe, it makes sense being a Spanish adventurer they would support him.
You mean rape the new world?
Isn't it hilarious all the karma involved in this story?
Is there not an episode 2??
I love reading about the Tudors; and even so the science wasn't up,to par back then to reckonise it's the man's sperm that determines the gender of a child.
So many women killed because men took centuries to figure out why they have nipples.
She paid the executioner 😩
“Anne of Cleves lives a LONG and happy life after the annulment…” The woman DIED AT 41!!!
Unfortunately, the Tudor life expectancy was about 35 years. 41 is long for the period, sadly
41 years was a grand age in the 16th century. If you remember many peasants died by 25 years. Anne of Cleves was a lucky woman and happy princess. She had got a private fortune and some lovely properties to boot in her settlement
Not only that but she is said to have died from cancer. I wouldn't call that a happy life given what suffers from the disease go through.
Divorced, beheaded, died. Rinse repeat.
And divorced, beheaded, survived- Henry died before Catherine Part,
Jane had a miscarriage also before she gave birth to Edward, why didn’t Henry just get rid of her?
where can i watch this version of henry viii
I live near Henry viii home. I was fascinated by his era.
the title says, "Divorced Bedheaded...not beheaded😀
The rhyme I was taught was divorced beheaded survived, because of course, 2 wives outlived him
That’s only 3 wives, he had 6. The rhyme was... divorced beheaded died divorced beheaded survived....but there were no divorces, annulments so would be...annulled beheaded died annulled beheaded survived
@@hazelpearson7807 yes the sequence happened twice
@lesleymay8006 but the third wife didn't survive, she died. Jane Seymour.
@@ryotterox6652 survived Henry because he didn't get bored and get rid of her. Died in childbirth not executed, fate of a lot of women then and now.
@@ryotterox6652 2 wives who survived AND outlived him, Ann of cleves and Catherine parr
Okay, why is Anne at 13:33 wearing the French hood hanging off the back of her head, held on with 21st century bobby pins😅
Because she was a time traveller perhaps?
Cos it's a pretty crap doco? Getta load of the obviously fake beard Henry in middle age has too!
@@slytheringingerwitch lol, if so she could have brought ovulation and pregnancy tests with her. Not to mention coffee, chocolate and toilet paper 😀
@@sharoncatwomanTotally. She missed a trick there.
Anne of Cleves is definitely the luckiest of all the wives. She was a clever German frau to have got such a good settlement, both in terms of property and monies.
Just occurred to me: was Henry a virgin himself when he married K of A????
So sad for these women!
Catherine of Aragon sister Juana The Mad is technically violent, their parents are 2nd cousin and Juana descendants are inbreeding. Like Juana had to see her own grandson marry her own granddaughter or grandson marry great granddaughter (uncle & niece) so that is why King Charles II has a weird, tragic and unstable life
The music is quite annoying. Otherwise it would have been great
Yep. I'm ready to consume this content right..... Meow!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Henry was such a narc
So, basically, divorced/annulled, beheaded, and díed...divorced/annulled, beheaded, survived... he's Henry VIII, he had six sorry wives, many say he ruined their lives...
(AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO EVEN KNOWS THE REFERENCE?! LADY-)
Much overstated and incorrect information
I'm with Henry on that one, no way would I become a protestant they are too boring.
Today our Henry is Orangesama bin Chaos.
anachronism at 36:31,..no stick incense in Europe during Tudor times...neither were glass chimney kerosene lamps...
I love the tudors
Bedheaded?
I don’t woo
