i HATE king henry the 8th!!!

[eques101]

i wonder what Henry would have thought if he saw that his DAUGHTER Elizabeth was crowned queen and became one of the best monarchs England ever had?

..this lady is more than ugly!..I can understand Henry's principle for this women case...

D*** you truly cannot be happy unless you have either banished or beheaded your latest wife

@oxfordpictionary Yes, I have to agree. Anne was incredibly smart, so witty in fact that she kept the king on his feet for quite a while. (Since almost all men, King Henry being no exception, like a good game of cat and mouse.) It is frustrating to think that once King Henry caught her, though, he lost almost all interest. Especially when she couldn`t bear him a son.

@puddycat10136710year Was that the other boleyn girl? I read it, and it was very interesting, but it was also very historically contestable (I mean, i know it's historical fiction, but still). It really made Anne out to look bad, when in reality, most modern historians have concluded that she wasn't guilty of any crimes; she was just too intelligent, and Henry only give her an X chromosome in his stupid sperm...

@eques101 That´s a good question

I read the book, The Last Boleyn. It is in the veiwpoint of Mary Boleyn, Annes Older Sister. Stunning, dramatic, incredible read, Anne may have been best known along with George and Thomas, but if it werent for the beautiful Mary, treasured Mistress of the King for five years, they would never be.

that's why he became fat and got a gangrenous leg (or foot). punishment.

i bet henry viii really thought he was doing anne a favor by hiring the swordsman to behead her, instead of using that dull ass ax. he really was a fat bastard.

with a swing liek that, that shouldn't cut her head in half not off.

@goodgirlkay No, I'm not really that dumb. I know the story. I can't see anyone wanting to marry him knowing the chances are they'll soon die if he gets tired of them. The bass was really a little to hard in the video though.
