Divorced, beheaded, died; Divorced beheaded survived.

 

 

today, i watched some documentaries about Henry viii and his wives.

what i got is male heir.

this was always bothering the tudor king. he should have an heir.

he married the women and took them as royal baby machines.

i can't believe this idea still plagues nowadays in many places, not to mention china.

 

can't believe that child birth hurt so much and it is not easy for a baby to survive in 1500s even though you were in crown. you still could not keep your baby healthy and sound.

 

i'd like to end this with a quotation from bible :"And if a man shall take his brother's wife, it is an unclean thing: he hath uncovered his brother's nakedness; they shall be childless."

 

poor woman. poor catherine.

let me see what happened to the Boleyn girls.
