Henry VIII

Henry VIII was born on the 28th June 1491. As the secondborn son to the former king Henry VII, he was never much recognised as important. He got the fundamental teachings of a prince, but it was his older brother Arthur who received the attention of hus parents. Henry had the opportunity to grow up without the pressure of being perfect. But, when his older brother Arthur died, Henry became crown prince. At age eighteen he was crowned king of England in 1509 and married his own dead brother's widow Katherine of Aragon, who was seven years older than him. Because the marriage to Katherine did not result in a male heir and just one surviving daughter, Mary, Henry started looking for another wife. To do that, he founded the church of England and abdicated from the Catholic Church. This new church should be able to make a divorce happen in the upcoming months. He had started seeing a mistress, named Anne Boleyn. Now, at age 40, Henry wanted to marry Anne Boleyn, even if his marriage to Katherine was not yet over finally... Or will his eyes be caught by you instead?
