Six Wives with Lucy Worsley S01E03

  • 7 years ago
The historian explores the fate of the last three wives of Henry VIII. First, Lucy witnesses Henry's doomed courtship with Anne of Cleves, with Henry successfully reneging on their marriage having claimed it had yet to be consummated. Two weeks later, Henry married teenager Catherine Howard, but an act of adultery with a courtier saw the young woman convicted of treason and beheaded. Finally, Lucy explores Henry's relationship with his last wife Katherine Parr, and how she managed to win Henry round despite their greatly differing religious beliefs. Last in the series.
