  • Somehow... I dont believe Henry actually loved Jane. After Anne ... he just looked at Jane, and saw her kindness and her good heart.. and thought to him self, that she was exactly what he needed.

  • The music...*sobs*

  • @The13blooddiamond Anne was pregnant when Henry married her. She was beheaded when Elizabeth was about 2 years old. If Jane had lived, Henry would've done anything for her because she gave him a son. She would've given him more sons.

  • I think Henry was really in love with his first wife, Catherine. She couldn't produce any sons, she was old, and probably "displeasing"(to him) and she knew about his Mistress'. AND he didn't kill her.

    But I do think, that he was in love with Jane, but only because she gave him a son. The other's were just to keep him busy and give him more sons..

  • this has to be one of the most beautiful scenes from this show..I would have reacted the same way His Majesty did if my future wife told me she was pregnant.

  • Awwe.That was rely cute!!.lol.

  • Jane was Henry's favorite. Don't forget he was a widower for 3 years. That's a long mourning period especially for a lady's man like Henry.

  • @VAANYA9 i thought anne was his fave. they lived together for 10 years!! jane died before he could execute her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Such a beautiful scene... it is such a shame that Jane died so shortly after giving birth.

  • Jane sometimes looks like Dianna Agron :)

  • @Liney4ever she really does!!! :O

  • I have always thought that Jane was Henry's favorite wife. Although isnt just because she provided a son? Anywayy great vid!

  • what´s the old word for "pregnant" there? i´m not from england and i can´t seem to find it on any website...

  • @Shanimaniac 'with child'

  • @peacedesertrose thank you, i understood this one, but i kept thinking "what he says sounds more like BE-child" which would make grammatic sense to me as i am german and we have structures similiar to that in our grammar^^

  • what a damn sweeeeeet clip....

  • I love Jane, I believe that she was the wife Henry wanted and needed. It's to bade she died in child birth.

  • @vamdiaries12345 She didn't die in childbirth. She died of child bed fever a few days afterwards.

  • @ThePharaoho Perhaps in the tv series, and in many of the movies portraying her. However she did unbelievebly well for someone who was a mere peasant, and I mean that as in she caught the people's attention. I do not disagree with the fact that Jane was a better and kinder queen, as this portrays since we do not know how they actually were. Anne, on the other hand, just seemed more interesting to me, and I believe she had a good heart.

  • @raumarcel No offense, but I find Jane to be very boring. She did everything the king wanted, which I admit was the wiser thing to do, but Anne did so much more. Anne is just as beautiful inside and out as Jane in my opinion. And having a son may have been the most important thing to Henry, but obviously not to history.

  • @rachiefangs No offense, but I do not find ruthlessness, deceit, foul mouths, and extreme ambitions at the cost of others to be very attractive traits. Anne was beautiful and intelligent, but she was too foolish and untrustworthy for my liking. Jane was sweet, gracious, strong, patient, kind, and she gave the king and realm what they wanted to restore the peace and end the chaos and treachery. She even cared for and understood the plights of both princesses. Jane was an exceptional Queen.

  • @EllieMarianna Jane seymour?

  • @EllieMarianna But, I mean, when ur having an affair, does'nt it involve sex? Didn't jane refuse to give her maidenhead away?

  • Jane and Henry made the perfect couple. They love each other very much and Henry wants it to be a boy this time but he gets what he wants .

  • @MissTudorGirl2020 In my opinion Jane and Henry weren't the perfect couple becouse if would Jane had borne him a girl he would stop loving her like his other wives.

  • @ZZZANNAMARIYZZZ I belive this too.

  • Comment removed

  • I want to apologize toward the people I might have shocked with my comment. I was just giving my opinion. I am not a jane hater, I think I've written it in my previous comment. I like a side in every queen Henry had but like everyone else, I have a favourite one. To all Jane lovers, I do apologize, I never insulted her and if you felt my comment that way, I'm sorry.

  • Even if I like Jane a bit, I feel an injustice in destiny or call it like you want. Anne was no saint but she did things a woman could not at that time, she was brave, she did not fear to be what she was, she was in every way better than Jane in my opinion and yet, it is the "holy maid" thaty gave the son Henry longed for. Yerk, that's disgusting.

  • @princessivoryrose Indeed. i do not understand why people thumbed down my comment, it was just an opinion and I innsulted no one. Anyaway, it matters not, we're free ^^

  • my mom craved Ovaltine when she was pregnant with me....that explains my love for chocolate lols

  • Was a brothers

  • My mom was a vegitarian but craved meet that how she knew my brother wa

  • LOL Imagine if someone craved Sour Cream with orange and pinapple O_O

  • My mom had a fondness for quail's eggs too. That's why she went into labor with me when she was hunting! Bitch never for her quail eggs.

  • my mum craved sour apple rings >.<

  • @athaliya Interesting the portrayals of two different actresses in the series would swing the vote from hate to love in a short span between two seasons. I love Annabelle Wallis!

  • Funny how she says 'My love' and Henry says my Queen as in, your job is to bear me a son and you may just do that and succeed as Queen. he may not have opened his heart anymore after Anne's death but due to Jane's sweet and demure way of pleasing him, he loved her because she was a good wife to him.

  • Omp she my favorite queen

    Shes so freaking pretty and nice :)

  • @TheArbiter707

    haha thats so funny! and ironic lol

  • Oh pregnant women and their food habits. my mother got a craving for hotdogs when she was pregnant with me. She actually went into labor at a hotdog shop lmao.

  • @TheArbiter707 did she get her hot dog?

  • "Leave." Lol

  • Wouldn't it be hilarious if she were eating those eggs for a whole week and he just now noticed?

  • 5 people push the wrong button

  • She always lookes more as a queen than Anne Boelyn ever could.

    She is very beautiful, brave but not to borring.

    She looks at him as the first queen did, but she is much younger than her.

    And, the important thing ever: She gave birth to his son!

  • anyone notice they switched Janes? lol

  • OMG, Jane is really beautiful

  • Not that I don't like Anne of Cleves or Catherine Parr, but I wish Jane hadn't died so young! One can only wonder at the course history would have taken had the only woman who gave Henry VIII everything he ever wanted lived.

  • I always feel bad about all the hate Jane gets because it's not her fault that Henry turned on Anne. I think she was a sweet girl that got pushed into a relationship with Henry because of an overly ambitious family.

  • I love the actress playing Jane, she seems has that maternal warmth about her.

  • I really love this scene, its so lovely and really shows the affection and love they have for one another. I really think, he truly loved Jane, although giving birth to a son may have helped, but he still had alot of love for her before she was pregnant.

  • I love this :) Its so sweet. They're so happy and in love. :)

  • I agree that I miss Natalie but I'm so glad that Anita got replaced I really hated her but Annabelle just has that kindness about her that you can imagine Jane having

  • Yay Jane!!!

  • This is a beautiful scene

  • It must have been weird having all those people standing around you 24/7 haha

  • Very sweet scene.

  • Not to blend in, I love Annabelle more as Jane then when Anita was, But why did they replace her again?

  • What episode is this ?

  • I wonder what Qual eggs taste like? Yum

  • hee hee, pregnant women crave the most interesting things ^__^

  • @MACABREMARIPOSA With my 1st it was green beans watermelon and GRITS.

  • @MACABREMARIPOSA My mother got obsessed with bacon-sandwiches... :O

  • @MACABREMARIPOSA you are so right!

  • Its not that they didnt care he was married, some of those women didn't have a choice, I mean think about it, he's the King, his word is law, if you displeased him your head is chopped, so the women were afraid to say no to the king. most of them, the others, yeah they wanted to be with him.

  • He cheated and the women didn't care that he was married...I love this show but ALL of them deserve what they get!

  • You seem to forget that women did not have any rights the only way for them, was to marry into a family who have money and power, so marrying the king was good for her but also for her family.

  • @biaco92  You would have no choice. Your live wasn't your own back then.

    You were at the mercy of your family, and they decided your future. If the King took an interest in you, it meant position and prosperity for the whole family. You would not be in any position to refuse.

  • In series 3 I really warmed to Henry

    x

  • @forgottennunknowen: LOL---King Henry chops off Anne Boleyn's head...not Jane Seymour's (this is Jane). Jane will instead die something like 12 days after childbirth. :)

  • this is cute but it makes me sad coz we all know how her pregnancy will end.

  • so sad...the beginning of the end :D

  • I love Ann Boleyn but ~sniffle~ This is a beautiful scene! It truly portrays Henry not as a cruel montser but of a tender man truly in love. I love Jane Seymour. She was so kind..... and sweet

  • nice subtle way for her to say she's pregnant.

  • pregnancy ius wonderful

  • Such a lovely scene. They honestly seem to be really happy and in love.

  • I find it rather ironic that his precious son didn't live that long + do much during his rein, and is 'useless' daughter Elizabeth ruled for what, 40 years? And was one of the best monarchs... Yup, oh the irony.

  • She is so beautiful. <3

  • I am so sad she didn't live.

  • sorry, shouldve said that Henry was not strong enough to defeat the rebellion, and couldnt trust the southern nobles to not join them thus he coudlve been overthrown, not that he wasnt strong enough to defeat the southern nobels LOL , sorry was fiddling with words to try to get it all in and deleated some by mistake - anyway the rest is as it should be.

  • .. would keep his pledges to them - but he , for someone so called besotted with her, then BETRAYED HER First he cancelled the coronation, then her tour, and then he killed its leaders and spiked thier heads - nice fellow and not as tender as the clip portrays - afer all, if he cared one jot for the mother of his much wanted unborn son, then he wouldve kept his word - yep, think thats it, - so yes he was happy, and yet not quite happy enough to keep his word to her - mmmm enough said

  • I agree. He broke vows to his wives. Think he is going to keep a promise? You are more likely to lose your head waiting. :-D

  • Yeas. I believe it was henry who promised the pple of the rebellion that JAne would be crowned queen in the North, right? He didnt give JAne a coronation. I think he wanted to wait and see if she was going to have a son. You are absolutely right!

  • yes, I think that was one reason, but after having watched that History doc on her and Henry, it also states that he cancelled it because of the troubles. It really was the most serious crisis of his riegn, and although it stayed North, apparently according to historians, he was most worried that if it came south, that he wouldnt be able to rely on the loyalty of his nobles in the south, and hence the threat to him was very real indeed.

  • Yes, he may have done so, but to be honest, he wasnt about to publically not show his grief, He probably did miss her, sure he did, and dont forget Henry loved attention, so there wouldve been a little of that too- he was very self seeking and re the over eating, well as the portriats of the time show, he was already on the very large side before he married Jane, he was not the handsome young man the series shows, in reality he was a fat old man with a leg that smelt from the infection .

  • like anne of cleves said:

    "It stinked ya."

  • me too LOL its nice to hear other views and opinions - and the fact that we dont always agree, well that just makes it all the more interesting - vive le difference as they say LOL

  • Okay, so, as a final remark to add, if Mr Filbofox is still reading here, I have seen on Youtube David Starkey on Jane Seymour - 2/2 - Now it does mention tht Henry was overjoyed at her pregnancy BUT BUT BUT, it also mentions tht as i pointed out he coudlnt trust his nobles in the south during the rebellion, and was NOT strong enough to defeat them, so he used their love of the Queen to get them to stand down and avert the GREATEST crisis of his reign and he also promised the Queen he would ....

  • Comment removed

  • Have done some revision - and a little more research, and have concluded, that whilst i do accept that Henry was happy when Jane found she was pregnant - I still feel that the acting was over the top - for my liking - and of course my view in that respect is coloured by experience - aswell as other things as already stated as for the rest, I can't find anything that says exactly what Henry did or felt re the news- have looked thruugh various articles perhaps you could tell me your sources ?

  • Comment removed

  • great scene!!!

  • Looll

  • And of course you are familiar with the Tudor ways of life and have lived in Tudor times so know exactly what their reactions would be...

    Henry VIII was a king, his goal was to get a son and heir to the throne and news of this kind would have been fantastic for him, so much so that he would show even greater affection towards his queen... exactly as was shown here.

  • Comment removed

  • But that is my point, you have absolutely no idea what it would have been like for Henry VIII... and basing your opinion on your 21st Century experiences really isn't much of a comparison.

    As for him being a king, the news of his queen being pregnant would be the best thing he'd have heard in a LONG time so it is quite possible he'd have reacted like this.

    And again, what your experiences of men have to do with the Tudors I really have no idea... people are completely different these days.

  • Comment removed

  • Not of men of life and a good few years of it. Point is, it is over the top. Catherine of Aragonhad many miscarriages and stillbirths or babes who didnt live long - so did they portray Anne Boleyn's pregnancy the same ? No, and yet Henry turned his country on its head because of it. Incidently - were you there too ? so you dont know that it was like this, not one bit, anymore than I know it was not - so there you go - neither of us knows one way or the other .and we never will.

  • They may not have portrayed Anne Boleyn's pregnancies in the same way, but then they had a LOT more to focus on in her time than with Jane Seymour's... and as you even said, the fact that Henry made such a big deal out of Jane's pregnancy around the country with special boats being made for her coronation and wine for all being handed out, would back up the idea that he was overjoyed at the fact she was pregnant and therefore this portrayal of the scene, which really wasn't that over the top.

  • As for me not being there, well that is a ridiculous statement in itself. I never claimed to be and I was merely commenting on how you seemed to be passing judgement on what you think might have happened based on your life experiences which, excuse me for sounding rude, is rather naive if you think that your life has any resemblance to a Tudor kings...

    I am, and will continue, to merely point out widely accpeted theories and accounts of how the events unfolded. Theories which contradict yours.

  • I was not comparing my life to that of a tudor kings - do you honestly take the time to read anything or do you simply skim through stuff and just pick out what you what , and then put your own spin on it ? - and they are not widley held theories at all - I have done my reasearch - have you ? I have a university qualification in the field of social sciences - and what i say is also based on my studies in social developlment over the centruaries so please, dont insult my intelligence -

  • "... most blokes are dumbstruck , regardless as to whether or not its a expected - and personal experience has been one where mild indifference was the response..."

    "... maybe my view is coloured by my own personal experiences, more than 3 times , am a mum of a few, so know its not like this..."

    And you still say you're not comparing your experiences with this event in a Tudor kings lifetime... hmm...

  • Yes, why do you think he had all those plans, and the free wine etic? Because he was trying to keep the masses from rising up against him there was at this time the rebellion going on in the North and they were marching south and growing in numbers - Henry was terrified - as any tyrant would be of loosing power, so, to justify him breaking his promises for a parliament and pardon for those involved (he treated themappallingly) he used this to subdue the rising tide of discontent. a distraction

  • As for this 'research' you are supposed to have done, you clearly haven't done nearly enough then have you. Social sciences means absolutely nothing here as you cannot be sure of how people acted then and it is more down to pure historical evidence and facts to build a picture of how things took place. Hence where I come in with my widely accepted theories.

    Historians and documentaries have even gone over Henry VIII hundreds of times and probably all claiming his joy at the news of the child...

  • Well if you had any knowledge of the area of Social Sceinces, then you would not make such an ingnorant remark - you really dont have a clue do you? social sciences is the study of not just society as it is, but also as it was, the whys the wherefores and how all these things have a bearing on things past present and indeed the fuuture - How do you think we got to be as we are ? Have you any concept why you yourself choose the identity you do - reflected by your comments here ? - think about it

  • As for this remark, I am perfectly well aware of what social sciences are thank you, but I fail to see how you can drag that into this debate. Yes, you may have studied societies of the past but they aren't based on anything other than theories or documented historical facts, hence why I was saying that it was more likely that this drama and the historians that have said that Henry was overjoyed are correct over your theory that he wasn't in fact as pleased as this show makes out...

  • Comment removed

  • It is relevent simply because in order to understand how we view things today, or our perceptions of how things may have been, we need to understand, a society's culture, economics, stretched social relations, politics, history of knowledge - etc and of course historians would document  this even as being joytful to Henry, He was always aware that history would take account of what was written of him. - I just think this scene is over the top - is all i am saying - am entitled to my views too

  • and i have already stated that Henry was probably delighted at the news of the child, my argument was that I thought that was a little over the top and i did indeed draw upon my own experiences and studies too to pass comment -it appears that you and I will not see eye to eye on this, but that doesnt mean than either of us is wrong or right------- and so we go round again

  • And as for your historial knowledge, it seems rather lacking too.

    Henry was most likely not at all 'terrified' as you put it considering the rebellion, by the time he was making those plans, was already defeated and those who had taken part were being made an example of, several hundred people being hung. He also only gave out wine to those in London, where no rebellion of the sort was taking place and he was in complete control.

  • Comment removed

  • to conclude - Henry held onto his throne through fear - there were many who would bring him down if the rebels managed to march south - he knew that they would gather many more to thier cause - so he exacted a most fearful revenge - he ruled through fear and not good judgement - he even made it treason to think of such things such as reblelling against him - just think, - he made a law to control peoples thoughts - now you dont do that if you are not worried about being overthorown -simple logic

  • The fact still remains however that in earlier posts you were comparing Henry's reaction to those of YOUR experience in the 21st Century. To make such a comparison is just foolish as the eras bare hardly any similarities whatsoever.

    Unless you have carefully studied Henry VIII and his life, you cannot possibly say what his reaction would have been, and all I'm saying is that historians, documentaries and this drama are unlikely to have got it all wrong considering the importance of a son.

  • yes, however, society has not changed as much as you think. Given what I have studied, as much as things appear to be different , underneath the surface they are not all that different - its complicated and theres not the space to explain here. When people pass comments or views, we do so in relation to our experiences of our own life and our persepctive of that life and of things in general. and you said it yourself "drama" would you watch with such interest if there was no poetic licence ?

  • Well as you said, it would seem that we will just have to agree to disagree... you can think what you like but you certainly won't convince me about what Henry thought. As for London, he was never under threat of losing that, in fact, the rebellion never made it past the midlands. But fair enough, he did rule through being a tyrant. Does that mean he was scared? Not necessarily... but as you said, agree to disagree. :)

  • Footnote - all those who rule through fear , do so because thats the only way that they can hold onto thier power - if you look back over history, this is easy to see - And yes Henry was scared - of many things especially the rebellion which didnt reach London BECAUSE of what he did - he knew that it could was very very aware that it could , and he treated it as such - why else did he exact such dreadful revenge and punishements ? to deter anyone else , and thereby hold onto his power-

  • @samsagitarias stfu you miserable swine. don't watch it then, watch your stomuch if its so bad.

  • @falseelasheffect I didnt after a few. it was badly acted, which is why i didnt watch this season - it sucked - badly .lost some of its original spark - it was a complete let down after seasons 1 and 2, and just cos you dont like what i have said, does not give you the right to be rude - dont like it - well then dont read it - "Simples" .

  • @samsagitarias Don't like it, don't watch it. The thing is, im guessing you are a Anne Boleyn fan, fair enough but just because shes not in it anymore, does not mean it looses its spark. Yeah she brought alot to the show, but everybody knew she was going to be killed in the end, so you kind of have to make do. & yeah i liked series 1 and 2, but you have to follow the story, you can't just miss out a series, unless you have just given up on the whole thing.

  • @falseelasheffect Thing is , I like the story, am an avid enthusiast of this era in history, have read many factual historical novels aswell as historical novels too - one of my fave authors is Alison Wier - its just that the season seems to have lost momentum - am looking forward to season 4 - hope it picks itself up again - season 3 - it was very wishy washy , and the fact that is was is nothing whatsoever to do with history - not at all, love researching this era
