THE LIFE OF HENRY VIII (part 1) | A perfect Prince | Tudor monarchs series | History Calling

THE LIFE OF HENRY VIII took a DRAMATIC TURN after the death of Prince Arthur Tudor in 1502, his older brother and the boy who was meant to be King. From that point on, Prince Henry of York was next in line for the throne and this event, followed soon after by the death of Elizabeth of York, his mother, changed his whole world. Join me for this History Calling video, the third in my Tudor monarchs series, to meet Henry VIII before he was king. So often, his life is looked at through the prism of his relationship with Anne Boleyn and his later wives, but this video will look at Henry before Anne, taking you through his journey to the throne, his eventual accession upon the death of King Henry VII and his marriage to Catherine of Aragon, his brother’s widow. It will cover the ups and downs of their union, from the loss of most of their children (barring the eventual Queen Mary I), to their military triumphs over France and Scotland. We’ll look at the beginnings of Henry VIII’s quest for an heir, his reaction to the Tudor scandal caused by the marriage of his sister, Princess Mary Tudor and Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk and at his famous meeting with King Francis of France at the Field of the Cloth of Gold. We’ll also examine the story of Henry VIII to see how a man once thought of as a perfect prince began the descent into tyranny that would so mark his later years and reputation and make him the epitome of a good king gone bad. If you thought the life of Henry VII was remarkable, buckle up; the story of the Tudors is about to get even darker. To understand the making of a tyrant, you have to go back to his roots and look at how a man who was not born to be king, became one of England’s most infamous monarchs and arguably the most famous Tudor.
