Which king in history was for you the most deranged?

[bekycybille]

With 6 different wives and one him, I think the problem was him

Katherine Howard was taken advantage of by multiple men starting at 13. She was married to the king at 17 and died at 19...

*struggling not to make a "six the musical" reference*

[julesmikell]

"less than wholesome past with sexuality" is a weird way of saying repeatedly r/ped. Katherine howard was always young (in most cases legally a minor / child) with partners much much older than her. Nothing was ever her choice.

Funnily enough, it is always the man's fault for not producing a son. Men give either an X or Y chromosome

[divingdays]

I can’t believe you left out the part where you said “his private area” when you totally could have said “his royal parts”

[grrachi]

Wife: has daughter

Henry: ah, so you have chosen divorce

[mistybenjamin]

To quote Six "What's worse than a broken heart?" "A severed head"
But honestly, beheaded Catherine was the worst. She was mistreated by men much older than her.

Seems like Henry had a thing for Catherines and Annes.

King of England: *gets a new wife*

New wife: **chuckles** *I'm in danger.*

"Divorced, beheaded, and died. Divorced, beheaded, survived. I'm Henry the Eigth, I had six sorry wives. Some might say I ruined their lives" That's a song from Horrible Histories

[idk-ssfm]

It wasn’t actually Anne of Cleves looks that got her divorced, yet it was how she had damaged his ego when they first met. So he simply didn’t want to admit the humiliation and based it on her looks.

[damnitimp]

Nah, Anne Boleyn had the last laugh tho, Elizabeth was her checkmate. Her daughter became Queen and become greater than anyone

[rougeakane]

Henry: *blames wives for lack of baby boys*

Chromosomes: Allow us to introduce ourselves

[scarlettplays]

*He was jealous because they could sing and he couldn’t*

[constancecrazybailey]

Anne of cleaves is slightly inaccurate, she was decently pretty but she humiliated him and sometimes didn’t understand him so he wanted rid of her .

[techrz]

This video is unnecessary when you can explain it in four words.

He wanted a son.

[keegan]

“divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived.”
but just for you, tonight, we’re divorced, beheaded,

[evangelinebryant]

People are really calling the wives thots as if he didnt have multiple affairs and prey on a young teenage girl.
