Catherine Howard: The Fifth Wife of King Henry VIII

Today we will be talking about the fifth wife of King Henry VIII, Catherine Howard. Now when we last left the Tudor world, Henry had annulled his marriage to Anne of Cleves and in a way she got away scott free from a man who had a history of taking out his insecurities and his furies on his wives - thus the rhyme to remember his wives, Divorced, Beheaded, Died, Divorced. And we’ll find the next part of that rhyme by the end of this episode.
