Lady Anne Stafford Henry’s Secret Obsession

Poor Catherine of Aragon! She had a life of hell.

Hi Jon!

Hi Jon, awesome live history video. I enjoyed it. How are you doing? I'm doing well and so is my cat Benjamin. We both enjoy watching your live history videos. Have a great day see you next video 😊

I loved it Henry was a big flirtatious man for women as he loved hi wife. Catherine but he also loved so many other lovey women. He mad his won chose that hurt otheir people and ended their. Lives like he did with six of his wife's but he wanted something. He went and got it a woman's life back then had little chose. So what fate held before them they hade to follow it. Can't what for your next video I love all of them.

The rules of the court had to provide a way for noble women to save their honor, especially if they were connected to the king. This was usually done by arranging good marriages like Besse Blunt. I wonder if this was the beginning of the end for Buckingham? Thank you for the video!

It's not easy being a lady.

Bathsheba and Ann both had to go when the king called for them 😢😢😢
Great video!

The queen’ s household was really used as Henry’s personal harem.

He truly was horrible to all women. They were nothing more than objects to be used and thrown away when he was finished with them.

Hello i studied tudor history for 6 years and I or the people I studied with found no evidence of Henry's affair with miss Stafford alot of evidence points to yes he liked women but was shy in the bedroom department. Im not saying the affair never happened as it was 15 odd years ago when I studied so maybe more papers have been found

Another favorite of mine; great episode.

Thanks👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Boy she played a very dangerous game at that time.. knowing full well that her family was the opposing family for the power of the thrown and in the end her own Brother pushed too hard and one can see what happened to him.. She is very fortunate she just ended up in a nunery for a bit..

This is so interesting
The Spanish Princess season 2 is a big guilty pleasure for me - there’s a character Anne Hastings (stafford’s sister) who is rumored to have an affair with King Henry the VIII and shows what a toll it was taking on Catherine. Maggie Pole created the rumor that Anne was actually having an affair with William Compton and now that I see this I find it really fascinating! Haha thanks for the fun video !

Wonder what margret Beauford ( sorry bad spelling)
Would thought of henrys behaviour, plus him breaking with rome ,
Feel she would of put foot down and stopped it,

Though do wonder if England still be Catholic if wasn't for him.

8 children? She was lucky to reach age 61 and not die of childbed fever.

That picture reminds me of the current Princess Anne - big surprise there.

Love the videos grate content..way to short to fully enjoy.I won’t be subscribing only because the length of your videos are way to short to bother.

Many portray the woman as ok with the affair but you couldn't really refuse the King for fear of ruination.

I didn't know that the murdered Duke of Buckingham was Elizabeth Woodville s nephew and first cousin to Henry VIII s mother making Buckingham the king s second cousin Nothing was off limits or sacred to this beast of a man the beast in him was still hidden unseen by almost all people but sometimes it shows it's ugly and evil head

I would think she would be grateful someone else had to share his bed.

Thank you Mr. Marshall 😎
Still as good as ever 👌💯
Hope 2025 is treating you well so far ⏳🗓️ 🙏
When we think of Henry's mistress's, we think of Mary Boleyn and Bessie Blount so it's nice to hear of less talked about mistress's such as Anne Stafford here 👸❤
