His first wife was Catherine of Aragon, Henry and Catherine divorced.
His second wife was Anne Boleyn, Henry beheaded her because he thought she was having an affair and she failed to give him a male son.
His third wife was Jane Seymour, she was Henry's favourite wife because she was the only one who gave him a son (Edward). Jane died!
His fourth wife was Anne of Cleve's, Henry divorced her.
His fifth wife was Catherine Howard, Henry beheaded her because he had been told that she had been intimate with other men.
AND FINALLY! His sixth wife was Katherine Parr, Henry died whilst still married to her. SHE SURVIVED!!!!
There is a rhyme about the wives and it goes like this:
Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived!
