About Anne Boleyn
Ann Boleyn was the wife to King Henry VIII and mother of Elizabeth I. Longing for a son and a suitable heir, Elizabeth’s birth brought great disappointment to the King and was frowned upon by an entire nation. Henry had already produced a daughter, Mary, with his first wife and the news of Elizabeth’s arrival was humiliating. Although there were no laws against a female successor in England, it was an unpopular notion and considered by many offensive.
Elizabeth’s childhood would only grow more complicated. After the birth of Elizabeth and the miscarriage of a son, Henry tired of Anne and began spending his time with other women. In 1536 Anne Boleyn was beheaded on charges of adultery; thought to have been by fabricated by Henry to make way for a third wife.
