How was the marriage of Henry VIII and Anne of Cleves meant to pan out? As with virtually all royal unions at the time, the pair had a marriage settlement. It was drawn up in 1539, before the wedding in January 1540 and it explained what should happen directly before the ceremony, what Anne should get in money and goods if she was widowed and what would happen to her depending on if she had children and if she became her brother’s heir or not. Of course as we all know, Henry VIII’s fourth marriage lasted just six months and was one of the shortest royal marriages in English history. In July 1540 he annulled their union so that he could marry Anne’s lady-in-waiting, Katherine Howard and had his former favourite, Thomas Cromwell, Earl of Essex, executed in part because he had promoted the union. In the end, the Tudor-Cleves marriage settlement wasn’t worth the paper it was written on, as a new agreement was negotiated for the ex-Queen once she became Henry’s legal sister. In this week’s six wives documentary from History Calling, we look at a series of historical what ifs. What if Henry VIII hadn’t left Anne of Cleves? What if they’d stayed married and she’d become his widow? What if they’d consummated their union and she’d become the mother of one or more of his children? In short, what if the marriage settlement of Henry VIII and Anne of Cleves had actually been followed? Within the video, I’ll tell you how much money Anne of Cleves was scheduled to bring as part of her dowry, how much money this Tudor Queen should have received as Henry VIII’s widow and how the life of Anne of Cleves was intended to play out. • Amazon storefront: https://www.amazon.com/shop/historyca... • Instagram: / historycalling • Patreon: / historycalling • OTHER VIDEOS YOU MIGHT LIKE: • SIX WIVES OF HENRY VIII PLAYLIST • Six wives of Henry VIII • WAS ANNE OF CLEVES HENRY VIII’S LUCKIEST WIFE? • • WAS ANNE OF CLEVES HENRY VIII’S LUCKI... • IS PICTURE OF KATHERINE HOWARD REALLY ANNE OF CLEVES? • • Is picture of KATHERINE HOWARD really... • FACE OF ANNE OF CLEVES • • FACE OF ANNE OF CLEVES | Story behind... • COULD ANNE OF CLEVES HAVE REMARRIED? • • Could ANNE OF CLEVES have remarried? ... • ANNE OF CLEVES: THE DYING WISHES OF A FORMER QUEEN • • Anne of Cleves: the DYING WISHES of a... • THE FUNERAL OF ANNE OF CLEVES • • The FUNERAL of ANNE OF CLEVES | What ... • GEAR USED • DJI Drone: https://amzn.to/38h1vXr (UK LINK) OR https://amzn.to/39hROZm (US LINK) • Go-Pro Hero 10 camera: https://amzn.to/3EPIK9U (UK LINK) OR https://amzn.to/3rTWScL (US LINK) • GoPro 3-Way 2.0 (Tripod/Grip/Arm): https://amzn.to/37CdC1r (UK LINK) OR https://amzn.to/3vaVxjU (US LINK) • Memory Card: https://amzn.to/36QvcOQ (UK LINK) OR https://amzn.to/3KeLZZs (US LINK) • Microphone: https://amzn.to/3MFtoaK (UK LINK) OR https://amzn.to/3rYtjH8 (US LINK) • BUY OR RENT: • The Tudors, season 1 https://amzn.to/3rFmveg (UK link) OR https://amzn.to/2VCwQ0j (US link) • The Tudors, season 2 https://amzn.to/3m64HIn (UK link) OR https://amzn.to/2VMPnHw (US link) • The Tudors, season 3 https://amzn.to/3wiwPwi (UK link) OR https://amzn.to/3BijsPB (US link) • The Tudors, season 4 https://amzn.to/3rNeggF (UK link) OR https://amzn.to/3z16S58 (US link) • Henry VIII and his Six Wives (2016 docu-drama) https://amzn.to/3jiCkag • Six Wives with Lucy Worsley (2016 docu-drama) https://amzn.to/3hd93vd (UK link) OR https://amzn.to/3wH2mr2 (US link) • DVDS: • The Tudors complete collection: https://amzn.to/3gWs4Ty (UK link) OR https://amzn.to/3z3Ef7n (US link) • Henry VIII (2003) https://amzn.to/2ZrjK4U (UK link) OR https://amzn.to/3z73ndj (US link) • Henry VIII and his Six Wives (2016 docu-drama): https://amzn.to/3gXU4GH • Six Wives with Lucy Worsley (2016 docu-drama): https://amzn.to/3h7Qh8z (UK link) OR https://amzn.to/3xKuBGA (US link) • BOOKS • Antonia Fraser, The Six Wives Of Henry VIII (2nd edn, Phoenix, 2009) https://amzn.to/3atiEfi (UK link) OR https://amzn.to/36IqD5r (US link) • David Starkey, Six Wives: the Queens of Henry VIII (Vintage, 2004) https://amzn.to/3k9uD4Z (UK link) OR https://amzn.to/3wImKIh (US link) • Thumbnail: Portrait of Henry VIII: National Museum in Warsaw, public domain • NB: Links above may be affiliate links.
