"The king and queen were not pleased with married life. The royal couple enjoyed periods of calm and affection, but Anne refused to play the submissive role expected of her. The vivacity and opinionated intellect that had made her so attractive as an illicit lover made her too independent for the largely ceremonial role of a royal wife and it made her many enemies. For his part, Henry disliked Anne's constant irritability and violent temper. After a false pregnancy or miscarriage in 1534, he saw her failure to give him a son as a betrayal. As early as Christmas 1534, Henry was discussing with Cranmer and Cromwell the chances of leaving Anne without having to return to Catherine"
"The queen was pregnant again, and she was aware of the consequences if she failed to give birth to a son. Later that month, the King was unhorsed in a tournament and was badly injured; it seemed for a time that his life was in danger. When news of this accident reached the queen, she was sent into shock and miscarried a male child that was about 15 weeks old, on the day of Catherine's funeral, 29 January 1536.[93] For most observers, this personal loss was the beginning of the end of the royal marriage.[94] "
"Anne's downfall came shortly after she had recovered from her final miscarriage. Whether it was primarily the result of allegations of conspiracy, adultery, or witchcraft remains a matter of debate among historians.[57] Early signs of a fall from grace included the King's new mistress, the 28-year-old Jane Seymour, being moved into new quarters,[98] and Anne's brother, George Boleyn, being refused the Order of the Garter, which was instead given to Nicholas Carew.[99] Between 30 April and 2 May, five men, including Anne's brother, were arrested on charges of treasonable adultery and accused of having sexual relationships with the queen. Anne was also arrested, accused of treasonous adultery and incest. Although the evidence against them was unconvincing, the accused were found guilty and condemned to death. George Boleyn and the other accused men were executed on 17 May 1536.[100] At 8 am on 19 May 1536, Anne was executed on Tower Green.[101] "
"The day after Anne's execution in 1536 the 45-year-old Henry became engaged to Seymour, who had been one of the Queen's ladies-in-waiting. They were married ten days later.[102] On 12 October 1537, Jane gave birth to a son, Prince Edward, the future Edward VI.[103] The birth was difficult, and the queen died on 24 October 1537 from an infection and was buried in Windsor.[104] The euphoria that had accompanied Edward's birth became sorrow, but it was only over time that Henry came to long for his wife."
>>> I hope anons noticed the black dragon at the feet of the king of France in the previous drop.
>>>And Ann of Boleyn was accused of witchcraft, adultery, incest and conspiracy. Now where did I hear those things in modern day times? And I find it quiet interesting as to why the main actress in Ugly Betty series wore Anne Boleyn necklace. What was the message they were sending?
