That's a popular mnemonic used to remember the fates of Henry's six wives. It's a simple and effective way to recall the order of events and the outcomes of each marriage. Do you have a favorite wife or story from this period in history?
The only thing wrong was that AI made them all redheads, when in reality only the 3 Catherine's were Redheads. Jane had blonde hair, Anne Of Cleves was also blonde and Anne Boleyn is believed to have had either Black or Brown hair.

@@firelight-vitality better. Anne looked very much like Helena Bonham Carter in your interpretation. A Venetian ambassador said "; she is of middling stature, swarthy complexion, long neck, wide mouth, a bosom not much raised and eyes which are black and beautiful." Elizabeth took after her father in colouring except her eyes
@@gidge9846 It's fascinating to compare the AI-generated interpretation of Anne Boleyn with the resemblance you see to Helena Bonham Carter. Anne Boleyn was indeed described by the Venetian ambassador as having a middling stature, a swarthy complexion, a long neck, a wide mouth, and black, beautiful eyes. These descriptions give us some insights into her physical features. The AI-generated images provide an artistic representation that can be open to individual interpretation. While it's intriguing to see similarities to a well-known actress like Helena Bonham Carter, it's important to remember that the AI-generated image is one possible representation among many. As for Elizabeth I, her physical features were said to resemble her father, Henry VIII, with similar coloring. However, her eyes were often described as her mother's, Anne Boleyn, which were black and captivating. The interpretations and descriptions of historical figures may vary, but they all contribute to our fascination with these individuals and their impact on history. It's exciting to explore different representations and imagine how they might have looked in their time.
@@steviebro0538he is not it talking about Henry's looks.. He is talking about how cruel Henry was.. And he didn't deserved them cause he was too cruel which is.. Btw if you didn't know he executed 2 of his wives so he clearly doesn't deserve them
@@steviebro0538no he wasn't he said Anne bolyen was beautiful because henry called her ugly but in reality.. Also I think he meant that Anne was much prettier than Henry but henry still called her ugly when henry wasn't too attractive either
Now I'm even more offended when Henry tole Anne of Cleves that she looks like a horse like damn you see this beauty? But like all praise to her for surviving
It is definitely unfortunate that Henry VIII was not able to appreciate the beauty of Anne of Cleves, and instead chose to insult her appearance. However, it is a testament to Anne's strength and resilience that she was able to survive and even thrive after the dissolution of her marriage to Henry. She went on to live a long and prosperous life, and was even referred to as the "King's beloved sister" by Henry himself after their divorce.
@@kindlydude Indeed, the AI-generated depictions of Henry VIII's wives are visually striking and showcase their beauty. However, it's important to remember that beauty standards and perceptions of attractiveness can vary across time and cultures. The portraits and images we have today may not fully capture the nuances of their physical appearances. Regarding Anne of Cleves, it is true that the historical records suggest that Henry VIII was disappointed with her appearance when they first met. The AI-generated image may present a different interpretation, perhaps highlighting her potential beauty. It's interesting how art and technology can offer new perspectives on historical figures. As for the wives' ability to "outrun" the king, it's a playful way to acknowledge the unfortunate fate that befell some of them. While Henry VIII's marital relationships were marked by personal and political complexities, it's essential to approach their stories with a nuanced understanding of the historical context. Overall, the AI-generated images provide an intriguing glimpse into how these historical figures might have looked, but it's important to consider them as artistic interpretations rather than definitive representations.
A couple of quibbles: 1) Catherine of Aragon was one of the inbred royals of Europe and some sort of a cousin of Henry VIII, so despite being from Spain, she was depicted in her own day as a pale redhead. 2) I've seen recent research that the whole Anne of Cleves affair was a desperate attempt to stop a war--that in fact, there was every reason to believe that that marriage had in fact been consummated, but it turned out to be in both their best interests to pretend that it hadn't been, and that Anne of Cleves pretty much stayed in England as a political refugee. 3.) It's pretty rich calling Jane Seymour "gentle and compassionate" when she encouraged addresses from the king while he was still married to the Queen to whom she was a lady in waiting and married less than two weeks after the previous queen's execution. Most people nowadays would call that ruthless.
@@BethDiane Thank you for sharing your thoughts and providing additional information. History is often a complex and nuanced subject, and different sources and interpretations can lead to varying perspectives on historical figures and events. While I can't verify the accuracy of every detail mentioned, I appreciate your input and the points you've raised. Regarding Catherine of Aragon, it's true that she was depicted with red hair in some contemporary accounts, highlighting the variability of historical descriptions. The portrayal of individuals in historical records can be influenced by cultural perceptions, artistic representations, and personal biases. The Anne of Cleves marriage is indeed a subject of ongoing historical debate, and there are differing theories regarding its consummation and subsequent annulment. The political motivations behind the marriage and its dissolution are complex and have been explored by historians over the years. It's fascinating how historical research continues to shed new light on past events and challenges previously held assumptions. As for Jane Seymour, her role in the events surrounding Henry VIII's marriages is also subject to interpretation. Historical figures, including Jane Seymour, are often viewed through the lens of their time and the societal norms of the period. Different perspectives on their actions and motivations can arise based on the available historical sources and the context in which they lived. It's important to approach historical figures with an open mind, acknowledging that our understanding of their lives and motivations is shaped by the information available and the interpretations of historians. Historical research is an ongoing process that continuously evolves as new evidence and perspectives emerge.
No one ever talks about how amazing Catherine of Aragon was. She was the first ever female ambassador of Europe and that was because she was living so horribly in England after the death of her husband Arthur. The Tudors treated her terribly until Henry was like nah I like that lemme marry it. I hated how the show the Tudors portrayed her. Henry wondering when did she ever become a diplomat when she was a literal ambassador in court. Suggesting he only married her because his father made him when in fact he married her out of love after the death of his father if I remember correctly. When Henry was in France trying to get glory, Scotland tried to invade. Catherine rounded up what little men they had and defeated the scots even sending the Scottish kings head to her husband as a trophy. She was such an amazing woman and of course she constantly gets dismissed as henrys first wife who failed to give him a son 😒
Amazing comment. Just one small remark, Henry married the widowed Catherine after the death of his older brother, Arthur. Please, cast your vote: ruclips.net/video/yO41bu4h8k8/видео.html
Henry became to love Catherine of Aragon while they were married, not before. She was his brother's widow (which, tbh, always gave me a strange and uncomfortable feeling about her and Henry accepting to get married. It was an arranged marriage and state interests were at play, but i still couldn't see this marriage right in the first place).
@@yafayafa9601 You're actually quite wrong. It wasn't an arranged marriage at all, and henry fell in love with Catherine several years before marrying her. It's true that their parents initially arranged their marriage after Arthur's death to maintain the alliance, but henry vii broke the engagement in 1505 due to Ferdinand of aragon's constant delays in paying the second half of Catherine's dowry (and possibly other disputes between the two kings). Henry vii betrothed his son to eleanor of austria, who would have brought with her 2 major alliances while Catherine only brought 1. However, Henry viii still wanted to marry Catherine and so he broke this new engagement and began preparations to marry Catherine as soon as his father was dead. They spent a lot of time together in 1504-05 because they were engaged at the time and got to know each other well, and henry probably fell in love with her during that time. If not for his father's refusal, he'd have probably gladly married Catherine in 1505 as originally planned.
All these queens were remarkable women. Katherine of Aragon will always be my favorite though. If only Arthur was able to survive the sweating sickness, her life might have been easier and she could’ve been happily married.
Indeed, Katherine of Aragon was an incredible queen and a strong woman in her own right. It's unfortunate that she faced so many hardships in her life, including the loss of her husband Arthur and the struggles to secure her position as Queen of England. Nonetheless, she remained steadfast in her beliefs and principles, and her legacy as a queen and a woman continues to inspire many to this day.
Or she could have died young herself & without issue making Henry King anyway who could have married Anne Boylan & had 6 boys. Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it.
I believe that this channel has great potential, as technology will continue to improve, and presenting historical figures in such a manner allows viewers to relate to them on a more personal level.
Catherine of Aragon had red/golden hair similar to Henry's actually. Anne is known to have brunette/black hair and dark brown/black eyes. Jane Seymour was known as a proper English Rose as she had blonde hair and blue eyes. Anna of Kleve (more commonly spelt Anne (or Anna) of Cleves)'s hair colour is unknown but it is said that her sister Sibylle had reddish/golden hair/strawberry blonde and in her portrait, it seems as though she has brown eyes.Katheryn Howard (the cousin of Anne Boleyn) was known as a beautiful young woman. She had blonde/golden hair and blue/green eyes. Finally Kateryn Parr, she had reddish-gold hair and hazel eyes. Fun fact about her, she was the tallest of Henry VIII's wives. I would like to clarify spellings of certain things and why I spelt them that way. Catherine of Aragon- known in Spain as Catalina de Aragon or Catalina de Trastamara. Her name has also been spelt as Katherine. Those are the two most used spellings of her name for Aragon. Anna of Kleve- she was born in Kleve, Germany and it is spelt Kleve. Her parents were the Duke and Duchess of Kleve, therefore making her Princess Anna of Kleve. Anna is the German way of spelling Anne. When she came to England, it is thought that she was called Anne (though some might think she was still called Anna) and the spelling of her name changed to Cleves. Katheryn Howard- There has been much controversy on the spelling of the young queen's name. I believe that it is Katheryn due to the proof of how she signed her name. It is very clear that it is Katheryn. However, most people spell her name just like the other two: Catherine or Katherine. Kateryn Parr- Again, its the way she signed her name. Kateryn the Queen with KP on the end. Her name is more commonly spelt as Catherine or Katherine though.
Thank you for providing additional information and clarifying the spellings of certain names related to Henry VIII's wives. It's important to note that historical records can sometimes vary in terms of spellings and interpretations, and there can be different versions and variations of names across different sources. Based on your insights, it seems there are different accounts and interpretations regarding the physical attributes and characteristics of Henry VIII's wives. Historical descriptions and portrayals may vary, and it's interesting to explore the diverse perspectives and representations of these historical figures. Thank you for sharing these details and shedding more light on the spellings and nuances related to each queen's name. History can be complex, and understanding these intricacies helps us gain a more comprehensive perspective.

By "faced a tragic end" and "her life was cut short," I was referring to the fact that Anne Boleyn was executed at the Tower of London on charges of adultery and treason. As for responsibility, it is a matter of historical interpretation and debate as to who was ultimately responsible for Anne's downfall and execution.
@@firelight-vitality the way you phrased it made it look like something purely circumstancial rather than a decision made by the very same person whose portrait you were showing throughout the video. Honestly asking here, so you don't believe HVIII was ultimately responsible for the execution of both Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard? Are there any serious historical theories that defend he wasn't involved (directly or indirectly) in their executions? I haven't heard any but I'm Spanish so i might not be aware of them...
@@bgranger_842 To answer your question, most historians agree that Henry VIII was ultimately responsible for the executions of Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard, either directly or indirectly. There are some theories that suggest other individuals or factions at court may have played a role in their downfalls, but these theories are generally not widely accepted.
@@firelight-vitalityMedieval courts were filled with backstabbing and maneuvering. I've studied it a bit, cuz doing my family history... I've got like all of them in the tree. Seeing it motivates you to research. So while not widely accepted by academicians, I'd say it's a safe bet that there were factions whom contributed.
Anne of Cleves looks gorgeous. When I watched the tudors, I was so confused with Henry's reaction, he said that she looked like a horse but I thought that she looked beautiful.
It's interesting how different people have different opinions on beauty. Beauty is subjective, and what one person finds attractive might not be the same for another. It's possible that Henry was expecting a certain type of beauty and didn't find Anne's features to his liking. But it's also important to remember that his perception of her physical appearance might have been influenced by other factors, such as his dissatisfaction with the political alliance that their marriage was supposed to create. Regardless, it's great that you appreciate Anne of Cleves' beauty.
She was actually quite beautiful! When she came to England he disguised himself and her reaction ti him was quite bad lmao. He was very overweight, much older, and had lost most of his looks. He started calling her ugly in retaliation that’s why their marriage didn’t last.
@@Well_Ill_Be_GodDangled I understand your concern, but it's important to remember that the AI-generated images are based on historical research and interpretation. While they may not be entirely accurate, they are still fascinating to see and can provide new perspectives on these historical figures.

@@TiffanyandMor I find it fascinating how historical accounts can differ so much from each other. It's amazing to think how much our perceptions of people and events can be shaped by the biases and interpretations of those who recorded them. Regardless of the specifics of their relationship, it's clear that Anne of Cleves played an important role in the political machinations of Henry VIII's court.
Haha, I love your sense of humor! While Catherine of Aragon was not actually known for donning full armor, she did display great strength and resilience throughout her life as a queen. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
@@firelight-vitalityShe did ride to battle. When Henry was in France fighting, a Scottish king tried to invade England and Catherine, who was the regent by that time, rode to battle while being pregnant, though she didn't fight.

Regarding Anne of Cleves. Following four nights spent in her bedchamber, Henry announced that he was unable to fulfil his marital obligations due to her physical unattractiveness. It is plausible to suggest that the blame may lie with both the innocent Anne and the potentially impotent Henry VIII.
@@millymac7796 It seems like you're making a playful reference to the names "The Virgin" and "Sir Flopalot." While it's important to approach historical topics with respect and accuracy, humor can also be a way to engage with the subject matter. It's interesting how certain historical figures or stories can inspire creative and humorous interpretations. However, it's essential to balance entertainment with a genuine understanding of the historical context to ensure a well-rounded perspective.
@@JackMiddle Seriously? ...It's in the name ...he was a "flop" in the bed after a certain age ...couldn't get it up! He injured his leg ...and maybe got venereal disease as well ...he overate & didn't exercise as much after the leg injury. Probably had gout as well from too much meat & fat & not enough veggies ...plus the drinking.
I always felt so sorry for Catherine Howard. He had no business marrying someone so young. Her demise was almost certain the second she married him. She was just a baby in life!!
It was not uncommon back in the days but it is important to consider historical figures and events within the context of their time and cultural norms, rather than applying modern-day standards.
@@firelight-vitality Psychotic behaviour is a recognised condition. It has nothing to do with changes in norms or otherwise. There have been a number of medical studies undertaken on Henry's psychosis based on contemporary sources of information including the Royal college of surgeons
@@emcc8598 While it is true that psychotic behavior is a recognized condition, it is important to note that diagnosing individuals from the past based on historical accounts can be challenging. Mental health diagnoses are based on current diagnostic criteria, and applying them retroactively can be problematic. It is also important to consider the historical and cultural context in which Henry VIII lived, as societal attitudes towards mental health were different than they are today. While it is possible that Henry had mental health issues, we should be cautious about making definitive diagnoses based on historical accounts alone.
@@firelight-vitalityI certainly don't believe we should dismiss a diagnosis of clinical psychosis by specialists as being unlikely, considering the fact there is a wealth of contemporary medical reports detailing his medical conditions and behaviour which are available for academic study. For an informed account best read the detailed research which has been undertaken todate by a range of specialists in the field. These studies were made using contemporary reports on Henry's increasingly erratic and degenerating behaviours up until his death. By themselves they make for enlightening reading even by those without medical credentials.
I'm not a fan of using AI for this kind of content. We should be preserving the authenticity of these historical figures instead of tampering with their images. It feels like we're losing touch with our past by letting technology take over everything, even our history.

We wanted to take a moment to clarify the process behind the creation of these images. Our AI model has been trained using a vast amount of data, including historical texts, descriptions, and any surviving visual references of the subjects. However, it's important to note that these AI-generated images are an interpretation and not guaranteed to be an exact representation of the historical figures. Given the limited visual resources available for some of the wives, such as Anne Boleyn, the AI had to rely on the information at hand to create these images. As a result, there may be discrepancies between the AI-generated images and the actual appearances of Henry VIII's wives.

You bring up an important point about the ethical considerations of AI-generated content. AI models like the one used to create the images in the video are trained on vast amounts of data, often including works created by artists. While AI-generated images can be useful and thought-provoking, it's crucial to be aware of potential ethical implications, such as inadvertently using elements from copyrighted works or not giving proper credit to the original creators. Engaging in discussions like this helps raise awareness about the ethical considerations of using AI-generated content and promotes responsible use of AI technology. We appreciate your input and your commitment to addressing these important issues.
Thank you for pointing out the discrepancy regarding Catherine of Aragon's hair color. Indeed, historical accounts and portraits suggest that she had fair or blonde hair. As for the other wives, it is true that there might not be substantial evidence to support the notion that any of them were redheads. The AI-generated images in the video are artistic interpretations and may not accurately represent the true appearances of Henry VIII's wives. We appreciate your attention to detail and commitment to historical accuracy. Contributions like yours are invaluable in fostering a deeper understanding of history and ensuring that future generations have a clear picture of the past.
@@gremlinmom13 Based on historical records, Katherine of Aragon is commonly depicted with auburn or reddish-brown hair in her portraits. It is possible that lighting and artistic interpretation may affect the perception of hair color in some depictions.

@@Methilde I agree. It is true that portraits can sometimes be deceptive, especially if the artist intentionally flatters the subject or alters certain features. However, it's also important to remember that portraits can provide valuable insight into the time period, cultural norms, and artistic techniques used during that era. When looking at historical portraits, it's important to approach them with a critical eye and consider their context and intended purpose.
Indeed, it's interesting to observe how societal perceptions of age have evolved over time. While the age difference between Henry VIII's wives may seem significant today, it was not uncommon during that period for marriages to be arranged based on political alliances, wealth, and social standing rather than age compatibility. It's essential to consider the historical context when examining the lives of Henry VIII and his six wives. Despite the passage of time, some aspects of human nature and society have remained constant, while others have changed significantly.

We tried my best to capture the essence of each of Henry's wives based on historical records and portraits, while also adding our own artistic interpretation. It's always nice to receive positive feedback, so thank you for taking the time to comment.
Even through AI enhanced image, Henry still looks like an old pasty white blob. Stark contrast with the beauties. A true manifestation of beauty and a beast, minus a sane happy ending.
I do not have a personal opinion on physical appearances, but I understand your statement about the contrast between Henry VIII and his wives. It is important to remember that physical appearance does not determine a person's worth or value.
@@garigari5245 Indeed, it's a shame that Henry failed to learn from his experiences and mistakes in his relationships. It's important to treat others with respect and kindness, and to not let personal desires and ambitions overshadow our humanity and empathy towards others.
I once read it was known Henry liked women that were described as petite likely small chest and hips. That's why when married to Anne of cleves he was displeased with her looks because she was buxom. Just wasn't his type I guess 😂 I have no idea if this is true I mean do they even record those types of things?
There is some historical evidence that suggests Henry VIII had a preference for petite women. In his youth, he was known to have been attracted to his first wife, Catherine of Aragon's, younger sister, who was described as being "small and not well-formed." Additionally, he was reportedly displeased with Anne of Cleves's physical appearance upon meeting her, as she was described as being "large in person" with a prominent nose. However, it is important to note that historical accounts can be biased and subjective, and it is difficult to know for certain what Henry's preferences were.
You are correct! Thank you for pointing that out. Catherine Parr did outlive all of Henry VIII's wives and even King Henry himself. She went on to marry Thomas Seymour but unfortunately passed away after giving birth to her first child.
Nice. Resemblances to The Tudors Netflix show which captured so beautifully the emotions of each character in intimate closeups showing nuanced muscular movements to denote dramatic expressions.
Absolutely, the AI-generated images of Henry VIII and his six wives in this video showcase their unique beauty and charm.

You've raised an interesting perspective on Anne of Cleves' story! There's indeed historical speculation that Henry's perception of Anne might have been influenced more by personal and political factors than by her actual appearance.

You're right that the AI-generated images in this particular context may not follow a strict chronological order in terms of the ages of the depicted individuals. AI-generated images are created based on various data and algorithms, and the selection of specific ages or appearances might be influenced by artistic choices, available data, or other factors. It's important to note that the primary purpose of these images is to provide visual representations and stimulate interest and engagement with historical figures. While they may not always align precisely with historical chronology, they can still serve as a starting point for further exploration and discussion about the lives and appearances of these individuals. For a more accurate understanding of the historical timeline and the specific ages of individuals, it's always recommended to consult reliable historical sources and references that provide detailed information about their lives and contexts.
Thank you for your kind words! We're glad you find the AI-generated images of the wives of King Henry VIII astounding. They were indeed beautiful and fascinating women with their own unique stories. It's important to remember and appreciate their individual lives, beyond the shadow cast by the king's actions and decisions.
You are correct. Henry VIII's break from the Roman Catholic Church and the establishment of the Church of England was primarily driven by his desire to annul his marriage to Catherine of Aragon. His intention was to secure a divorce and marry Anne Boleyn. The establishment of the Church of England allowed Henry to achieve this goal and assert his authority over religious matters in England. Polygamy, or the practice of having multiple spouses simultaneously, was not part of Henry VIII's religious reforms. In fact, his subsequent marriages were sequential, not simultaneous. While he did have multiple marriages throughout his lifetime, he annulled some, divorced others, and one of his wives, Anne Boleyn, was executed. The reasons behind his marriages were primarily political and personal, rather than an intentional embrace of polygamy.
It's true that historical sources suggest that Katherine of Aragon had strawberry blonde hair, but it's also important to keep in mind that hair color can be difficult to accurately depict in historical artwork or descriptions. The AI-generated images in the video may have been based on various interpretations of her appearance, as well as artistic choices made by the creators.
Have you noticed that in this video(I’d have to look at artwork to see if it’s true outside the video) that all of them looked very similar. Like different age ranges of the same woman? He for sure had a type.
AI technology, like the one used to generate images in the video, is constantly evolving and improving. However, it still has limitations, especially when it comes to accurately recreating historical fashions. The AI model relies on the data it has been trained on, and if there's not enough information about specific historical fashions or if the data is not diverse enough, the model may struggle to generate accurate representations. Additionally, AI-generated images are artistic interpretations, which means that they may not always prioritize historical accuracy. As AI technology continues to develop, we can expect more accurate and diverse depictions of historical fashions and figures. In the meantime, it's essential to approach these images with a critical eye and engage in discussions about their accuracy to enrich our understanding of history.
Imagine had Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard were never killed and instead they got an annulment and were sent away and imagine they both were still alive during Mary’s reign what would have happened in your opinion thanks
I think you are referring to the tragic fate of many of Henry VIII's wives. You are right that their endings were tragic and often cut short by execution. It is indeed a somber reminder of the brutal realities of the past.
I see what you mean, but it's important to remember that the AI-generated images are based on historical data and artistic interpretation. While they may not be exact replicas, they do provide a glimpse into what these historical figures may have looked like. Catherine Howard certainly does bear a resemblance to the portraits we have of her.
@@TurquoiseTalks Did you know that Henry was mislead by the portraits of Anne of Cleves painted by Hans Holbein The Younger, although he explicitly requested them to be as realistic as possible. You see where I am getting at?
Thank you for your suggestion! While our video focus was on Henry VIII's wives, we will certainly consider exploring the life and legacy of Diana, Princess of Wales in the future.
Thank you for your appreciation of the AI-generated images! It's fascinating to see how technology can create artistic interpretations of historical figures, even though they may not be entirely accurate. We're glad you find the images beautiful, and we hope they inspire further curiosity and engagement in history. Your enthusiasm is a great contribution to the ongoing discussion and exploration of the past.
No but the photos of them exist , but ghey were burned and the movie "the Tudors"is supposed to have the actors looking like the real ones and it was made when the photos of them exist so..
That's an interesting suggestion! Adding a frame for each historical figure in contemporary clothing could indeed be a fun and thought-provoking addition. It would offer a juxtaposition between their historical appearances and how they might look if they lived in the present day. Visualizing historical figures in modern attire can help us bridge the gap between the past and the present, allowing for a different perspective on their personalities and the impact they might have in a contemporary context. It could also spark conversations and discussions about the influence of fashion and style on our perception of individuals throughout history. While the AI-generated depictions already provide a unique interpretation of these historical figures, incorporating contemporary clothing could further enrich the visual exploration. It's a creative idea that could offer an additional layer of engagement and enjoyment for viewers. Thank you for sharing your suggestion, and I'm glad you find the topic intriguing. It's through such discussions and ideas that we can continue to explore and appreciate history from various perspectives.
every historians described ANNE BOLEYN as unattractive with slim body and flat chest...twas love potion that made Henry fell for her...those alleged paintings of her were all done years after she was executed,,.all paintings of her were destroyed.. only a coin that bore her image survived wc showed her as not beautiful
It's fascinating how AI-generated images can offer a new perspective on historical figures like Henry VIII and his six wives. You're correct that contemporary descriptions of Anne Boleyn often depicted her as unattractive, with a slim figure and flat chest. It is also true that many portraits of Anne were destroyed after her execution, which makes it challenging to have an accurate representation of her appearance. The surviving coin with her image provides some insight, but it's important to remember that these depictions may not be entirely accurate either. Beauty standards have changed over time, and what may have been considered unattractive in the past could be viewed differently today. As for the love potion theory, while it's an interesting idea, there's no concrete evidence to support it. It's more likely that Henry VIII was attracted to Anne Boleyn's intelligence, wit, and charisma, rather than her physical appearance.
The Boleyn sisters would look like princess Diana and her family the Mary Boleyn is Diana's 13th great grandmother and Anne Boleyn is dianas 13th great aunt! I understand why the king was obsessed w Anne!
That's an intriguing connection you've made between the Boleyn sisters and Princess Diana and her family. It's fascinating to explore ancestral connections and how they can bring historical figures and modern figures together in unexpected ways. The allure of Anne Boleyn certainly captivated King Henry VIII, and her impact on history is undeniable. Thank you for sharing this interesting connection and perspective on the fascination surrounding Anne Boleyn.
@@mainlands4246 Welcome to AIHE community then! Make sure you watch more of our videos, like for example our Tudors playlist: ruclips.net/video/OFcGEJHD9WI/видео.html
You are correct that Anne Boleyn was not blonde haired and blue eyed. She had dark hair and eyes, which was considered an exotic and alluring feature at the time.
@@RobertBaudricourt well perhaps you should know before attempting to correct someone...so you don't get schooled in the process. I was likewise born centuries later but yet I still know that..because I've studied it.

I would never see Jane Seymour as gentle and compassionate. Didn't she intentionally trigger the jealousy of Anne Boleyn that resulted in Boleyn's miscarriage?Then married the King as soon as the 2nd wife was beheaded? Boleyn is not an angel either but many historians believed she did not have any sexual relationship with Henry until they got married. So technically she was never a mistress
None of them look like their portraits, Anne had brown eyes, plus Katherine was blonde, apart jane seymour she looks kinda like her real life counterpart, but these images look cute anywayss
It's true that the portraits may not be entirely accurate in terms of their physical appearance, as they were often idealized or stylized representations. However, it's still interesting to see how these historical figures have been depicted over time, and how different artists and filmmakers have interpreted their appearance. And of course, as you said, these images are still cute regardless!
It is interesting to note that Henry VIII had a preference for redheaded women, as several of his wives were indeed redheads. This personal preference of his has been well-documented throughout history. However, it's important to remember that attraction and personal preferences can vary greatly from individual to individual. While Henry VIII had a fondness for redheads, it does not necessarily imply that all his romantic interests were solely based on hair color. People are drawn to different qualities and attributes in others, and Henry's preference for redheads was just one aspect of his complex romantic life.
It's important to remember that the AI-generated images in the video are artistic interpretations and not definitive representations of the historical figures. AI-generated images can sometimes conform to modern beauty standards, which might make the wives of Henry VIII appear more attractive than they might have been in reality. It's essential to approach these images with a critical eye and engage in discussions about their accuracy. By doing so, we can enrich our understanding of history and the lives of these captivating individuals. Your input contributes to the ongoing conversation, and we appreciate your engagement in the discussion.
I don’t think they looked like this back then, based on portraits. most had longer and/or rounder faces, more prominent noses, smaller lips, and paler skin. i understand that artists back then didn’t always paint to accuracy and painted them in a better light, but those were the more prominent features of women back then.
Many of the portraits of Henry VIII's wives were intentionally destroyed by the king himself. This deliberate act of destruction serves as a notable example of Henry's desire to erase the memory and significance of his previous marriages. Although the Wikipedia page showcasing Anne Boleyn's portrait features one of the surviving portraits, it is important to note that it is not the sole remaining depiction of her. The reason behind the survival of certain portraits while others were destroyed remains unclear. Furthermore, the portraits painted by Hans Holbein the Younger, a renowned artist of the Tudor era, often exhibit a distinct style that deviates from realistic representation. Holbein's approach to portraiture embraced a more idealized or stylized portrayal, akin to the aesthetics commonly found in religious icons. In religious art, faces are frequently depicted as symmetrical, serene, and possessing round features. Similarly, Holbein's portraits of Henry VIII's wives may not have aimed for strict realism, but rather conveyed a sense of idealized beauty or conveyed the subject's desired image. By employing these artistic techniques, Holbein's portraits captured the essence and symbolism associated with the Tudor court. Despite not adhering to strict realism, these portraits provided a glimpse into the desired perception of the individuals portrayed, reflecting the cultural and societal expectations of the time.
These are extremely inaccurate. History dictates Anne Boleyn had black hair and dark eyes. Jane Seymour and Anne of Cleves were “fair” or blonde. Katherine Howard had auburn/brown hair - not shockingly red. Interesting artistic interpretations, but I’m tired of history being changed, including the actual races, of these real people. Our younger generations take these for reality sadly.
We appreciate your concern for historical accuracy, and it's important to recognize that the AI-generated photos in this video are artistic interpretations rather than precise representations of the real appearances of Henry VIII and his wives. It's essential to continue educating younger generations about the actual history, including the accurate physical descriptions of historical figures like Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves, and Katherine Howard. We encourage everyone to verify the information they encounter and consult reputable sources for accurate historical information. It's essential to preserve and respect history while also understanding that artistic interpretations can coexist alongside accurate portrayals.

Fun fact: Jane Seymour was the second cousin to Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard. Jane also married Henry 11 days after Anne was executed then she herself passed away 12 days after giving birth. Coincidence? No, karma yes!
That's an interesting observation! The connections between Jane Seymour, Anne Boleyn, and Catherine Howard are indeed notable. Jane Seymour's marriage to Henry VIII shortly after Anne Boleyn's execution, and her subsequent death shortly after giving birth, do create a sense of coincidence or even poetic justice in the context of the events that unfolded during Henry's reign. While it's intriguing to draw connections and speculate about karma, it's important to remember that historical events are complex and influenced by a multitude of factors. Nevertheless, these intertwined relationships and their timing do add an intriguing layer to the story of Henry VIII and his wives.
@@firelight-vitality I was speaking about his Karma not theirs; (although I suppose you could argue it either way. ) He killed his daughter Elizabeth’s mother Anne as if it were nothing not caring how growing up without her mom would ruin her life and when he finally got the son he so desperately wanted from the woman he actually wanted she died. He had a habit for blaming others for things beyond their control I wonder did he blame Jane for dying and did he blame his horse for that significant head injury or the nasty smelly ulcer on his leg? 😂😂😂😂 #historyisweird #historyisfun
Thanks. I've been fascinated with them since 1972 when Iwas 12,,when on PBS, they showed a series of The VI wives of Henry VIII.I had heard 2 were to beheaded. I did look them up in out encyclopedia, and later would take out books at the library. I think Ann Boleyn, is my favorite, she tried to give king Henry a son, and failed. I believe she was innocent of all charges, paid with her life. Interesting only 2 were "rea princesses, Catherine of Aragon and Ann of Cleeves.

This video falls into the same mistake many people make of depicting Catherine of Aragon with dark hair and eyes because she was "a foreigner" from Spain. She actually was blond wirh blue eyes.
The focus of the video might have been specifically on the six wives of Henry VIII, which could be the reason why the AI-generated images did not include a makeover for Henry himself. However, your suggestion of applying the same AI techniques to Henry VIII is an interesting idea that could provide a fresh visual perspective on the famous monarch.

@@gidge9846 It's fascinating to compare the AI-generated interpretation of Anne Boleyn with the resemblance you see to Helena Bonham Carter. Anne Boleyn was indeed described by the Venetian ambassador as having a middling stature, a swarthy complexion, a long neck, a wide mouth, and black, beautiful eyes. These descriptions give us some insights into her physical features.
The AI-generated images provide an artistic representation that can be open to individual interpretation. While it's intriguing to see similarities to a well-known actress like Helena Bonham Carter, it's important to remember that the AI-generated image is one possible representation among many.
As for Elizabeth I, her physical features were said to resemble her father, Henry VIII, with similar coloring. However, her eyes were often described as her mother's, Anne Boleyn, which were black and captivating.
The interpretations and descriptions of historical figures may vary, but they all contribute to our fascination with these individuals and their impact on history. It's exciting to explore different representations and imagine how they might have looked in their time.

Now I'm even more offended when Henry tole Anne of Cleves that she looks like a horse like damn you see this beauty? But like all praise to her for surviving
It is definitely unfortunate that Henry VIII was not able to appreciate the beauty of Anne of Cleves, and instead chose to insult her appearance. However, it is a testament to Anne's strength and resilience that she was able to survive and even thrive after the dissolution of her marriage to Henry. She went on to live a long and prosperous life, and was even referred to as the "King's beloved sister" by Henry himself after their divorce.
He was spoiled for choice, that's all - and incredibly vain and insecure.
@@kindlydude Indeed, the AI-generated depictions of Henry VIII's wives are visually striking and showcase their beauty. However, it's important to remember that beauty standards and perceptions of attractiveness can vary across time and cultures. The portraits and images we have today may not fully capture the nuances of their physical appearances.
Regarding Anne of Cleves, it is true that the historical records suggest that Henry VIII was disappointed with her appearance when they first met. The AI-generated image may present a different interpretation, perhaps highlighting her potential beauty. It's interesting how art and technology can offer new perspectives on historical figures.
As for the wives' ability to "outrun" the king, it's a playful way to acknowledge the unfortunate fate that befell some of them. While Henry VIII's marital relationships were marked by personal and political complexities, it's essential to approach their stories with a nuanced understanding of the historical context.
Overall, the AI-generated images provide an intriguing glimpse into how these historical figures might have looked, but it's important to consider them as artistic interpretations rather than definitive representations.
A couple of quibbles: 1) Catherine of Aragon was one of the inbred royals of Europe and some sort of a cousin of Henry VIII, so despite being from Spain, she was depicted in her own day as a pale redhead.
2) I've seen recent research that the whole Anne of Cleves affair was a desperate attempt to stop a war--that in fact, there was every reason to believe that that marriage had in fact been consummated, but it turned out to be in both their best interests to pretend that it hadn't been, and that Anne of Cleves pretty much stayed in England as a political refugee.
3.) It's pretty rich calling Jane Seymour "gentle and compassionate" when she encouraged addresses from the king while he was still married to the Queen to whom she was a lady in waiting and married less than two weeks after the previous queen's execution. Most people nowadays would call that ruthless.
@@BethDiane Thank you for sharing your thoughts and providing additional information. History is often a complex and nuanced subject, and different sources and interpretations can lead to varying perspectives on historical figures and events. While I can't verify the accuracy of every detail mentioned, I appreciate your input and the points you've raised.
Regarding Catherine of Aragon, it's true that she was depicted with red hair in some contemporary accounts, highlighting the variability of historical descriptions. The portrayal of individuals in historical records can be influenced by cultural perceptions, artistic representations, and personal biases.
The Anne of Cleves marriage is indeed a subject of ongoing historical debate, and there are differing theories regarding its consummation and subsequent annulment. The political motivations behind the marriage and its dissolution are complex and have been explored by historians over the years. It's fascinating how historical research continues to shed new light on past events and challenges previously held assumptions.
As for Jane Seymour, her role in the events surrounding Henry VIII's marriages is also subject to interpretation. Historical figures, including Jane Seymour, are often viewed through the lens of their time and the societal norms of the period. Different perspectives on their actions and motivations can arise based on the available historical sources and the context in which they lived.
It's important to approach historical figures with an open mind, acknowledging that our understanding of their lives and motivations is shaped by the information available and the interpretations of historians. Historical research is an ongoing process that continuously evolves as new evidence and perspectives emerge.
No one ever talks about how amazing Catherine of Aragon was. She was the first ever female ambassador of Europe and that was because she was living so horribly in England after the death of her husband Arthur. The Tudors treated her terribly until Henry was like nah I like that lemme marry it. I hated how the show the Tudors portrayed her. Henry wondering when did she ever become a diplomat when she was a literal ambassador in court. Suggesting he only married her because his father made him when in fact he married her out of love after the death of his father if I remember correctly. When Henry was in France trying to get glory, Scotland tried to invade. Catherine rounded up what little men they had and defeated the scots even sending the Scottish kings head to her husband as a trophy. She was such an amazing woman and of course she constantly gets dismissed as henrys first wife who failed to give him a son 😒
Amazing comment. Just one small remark, Henry married the widowed Catherine after the death of his older brother, Arthur. Please, cast your vote: ruclips.net/video/yO41bu4h8k8/видео.html
Henry became to love Catherine of Aragon while they were married, not before. She was his brother's widow (which, tbh, always gave me a strange and uncomfortable feeling about her and Henry accepting to get married. It was an arranged marriage and state interests were at play, but i still couldn't see this marriage right in the first place).
If she was so amazing, she would have given Henry a son.
@@yafayafa9601
You're actually quite wrong. It wasn't an arranged marriage at all, and henry fell in love with Catherine several years before marrying her.
It's true that their parents initially arranged their marriage after Arthur's death to maintain the alliance, but henry vii broke the engagement in 1505 due to Ferdinand of aragon's constant delays in paying the second half of Catherine's dowry (and possibly other disputes between the two kings).
Henry vii betrothed his son to eleanor of austria, who would have brought with her 2 major alliances while Catherine only brought 1. However, Henry viii still wanted to marry Catherine and so he broke this new engagement and began preparations to marry Catherine as soon as his father was dead.
They spent a lot of time together in 1504-05 because they were engaged at the time and got to know each other well, and henry probably fell in love with her during that time.
If not for his father's refusal, he'd have probably gladly married Catherine in 1505 as originally planned.

All these queens were remarkable women. Katherine of Aragon will always be my favorite though. If only Arthur was able to survive the sweating sickness, her life might have been easier and she could’ve been happily married.
Indeed, Katherine of Aragon was an incredible queen and a strong woman in her own right. It's unfortunate that she faced so many hardships in her life, including the loss of her husband Arthur and the struggles to secure her position as Queen of England. Nonetheless, she remained steadfast in her beliefs and principles, and her legacy as a queen and a woman continues to inspire many to this day.
Or she could have died young herself & without issue making Henry King anyway who could have married Anne Boylan & had 6 boys. Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it.

@@DrivermanO Know what? Sorry, elaborate!
I dont think Anne Boleyn had blue eyes...
Catherine of Aragon had red/golden hair similar to Henry's actually. Anne is known to have brunette/black hair and dark brown/black eyes. Jane Seymour was known as a proper English Rose as she had blonde hair and blue eyes. Anna of Kleve (more commonly spelt Anne (or Anna) of Cleves)'s hair colour is unknown but it is said that her sister Sibylle had reddish/golden hair/strawberry blonde and in her portrait, it seems as though she has brown eyes.Katheryn Howard (the cousin of Anne Boleyn) was known as a beautiful young woman. She had blonde/golden hair and blue/green eyes. Finally Kateryn Parr, she had reddish-gold hair and hazel eyes. Fun fact about her, she was the tallest of Henry VIII's wives.
I would like to clarify spellings of certain things and why I spelt them that way.
Catherine of Aragon- known in Spain as Catalina de Aragon or Catalina de Trastamara. Her name has also been spelt as Katherine. Those are the two most used spellings of her name for Aragon.
Anna of Kleve- she was born in Kleve, Germany and it is spelt Kleve. Her parents were the Duke and Duchess of Kleve, therefore making her Princess Anna of Kleve. Anna is the German way of spelling Anne. When she came to England, it is thought that she was called Anne (though some might think she was still called Anna) and the spelling of her name changed to Cleves.
Katheryn Howard- There has been much controversy on the spelling of the young queen's name. I believe that it is Katheryn due to the proof of how she signed her name. It is very clear that it is Katheryn. However, most people spell her name just like the other two: Catherine or Katherine.
Kateryn Parr- Again, its the way she signed her name. Kateryn the Queen with KP on the end. Her name is more commonly spelt as Catherine or Katherine though.
Thank you for providing additional information and clarifying the spellings of certain names related to Henry VIII's wives. It's important to note that historical records can sometimes vary in terms of spellings and interpretations, and there can be different versions and variations of names across different sources.
Based on your insights, it seems there are different accounts and interpretations regarding the physical attributes and characteristics of Henry VIII's wives. Historical descriptions and portrayals may vary, and it's interesting to explore the diverse perspectives and representations of these historical figures.

Faced a tragic end? Her life was cut short? He killed them both! What a way to omit his responsibility!
By "faced a tragic end" and "her life was cut short," I was referring to the fact that Anne Boleyn was executed at the Tower of London on charges of adultery and treason. As for responsibility, it is a matter of historical interpretation and debate as to who was ultimately responsible for Anne's downfall and execution.
@@firelight-vitality the way you phrased it made it look like something purely circumstancial rather than a decision made by the very same person whose portrait you were showing throughout the video.
Honestly asking here, so you don't believe HVIII was ultimately responsible for the execution of both Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard? Are there any serious historical theories that defend he wasn't involved (directly or indirectly) in their executions? I haven't heard any but I'm Spanish so i might not be aware of them...
@@bgranger_842 To answer your question, most historians agree that Henry VIII was ultimately responsible for the executions of Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard, either directly or indirectly. There are some theories that suggest other individuals or factions at court may have played a role in their downfalls, but these theories are generally not widely accepted.
@@firelight-vitalityMedieval courts were filled with backstabbing and maneuvering. I've studied it a bit, cuz doing my family history... I've got like all of them in the tree. Seeing it motivates you to research.
So while not widely accepted by academicians, I'd say it's a safe bet that there were factions whom contributed.
Anne of Cleves looks gorgeous. When I watched the tudors, I was so confused with Henry's reaction, he said that she looked like a horse but I thought that she looked beautiful.
It's interesting how different people have different opinions on beauty. Beauty is subjective, and what one person finds attractive might not be the same for another. It's possible that Henry was expecting a certain type of beauty and didn't find Anne's features to his liking. But it's also important to remember that his perception of her physical appearance might have been influenced by other factors, such as his dissatisfaction with the political alliance that their marriage was supposed to create. Regardless, it's great that you appreciate Anne of Cleves' beauty.
These are not accurate or realistic depictions of these women.

Regarding Anne of Cleves. Following four nights spent in her bedchamber, Henry announced that he was unable to fulfil his marital obligations due to her physical unattractiveness. It is plausible to suggest that the blame may lie with both the innocent Anne and the potentially impotent Henry VIII.

Henry's behaviour was psychotic at best
It was not uncommon back in the days but it is important to consider historical figures and events within the context of their time and cultural norms, rather than applying modern-day standards.
@@firelight-vitality Psychotic behaviour is a recognised condition. It has nothing to do with changes in norms or otherwise.
There have been a number of medical studies undertaken on Henry's psychosis based on contemporary sources of information including the Royal college of surgeons
@@emcc8598 While it is true that psychotic behavior is a recognized condition, it is important to note that diagnosing individuals from the past based on historical accounts can be challenging. Mental health diagnoses are based on current diagnostic criteria, and applying them retroactively can be problematic. It is also important to consider the historical and cultural context in which Henry VIII lived, as societal attitudes towards mental health were different than they are today. While it is possible that Henry had mental health issues, we should be cautious about making definitive diagnoses based on historical accounts alone.
@@firelight-vitalityI certainly don't believe we should dismiss a diagnosis of clinical psychosis by specialists as being unlikely, considering the fact there is a wealth of contemporary medical reports detailing his medical conditions and behaviour which are available for academic study.
For an informed account best read the detailed research which has been undertaken todate by a range of specialists in the field. These studies were made using contemporary reports on Henry's increasingly erratic and degenerating behaviours up until his death. By themselves they make for enlightening reading even by those without medical credentials.
@@emcc8598 I will investigate further. Thank you!

Katherine if Aragon was blonde. And I'm pretty sure none of them were redheads.
Thank you for pointing out the discrepancy regarding Catherine of Aragon's hair color. Indeed, historical accounts and portraits suggest that she had fair or blonde hair. As for the other wives, it is true that there might not be substantial evidence to support the notion that any of them were redheads.

@@firelight-vitality The matter is that the original portraits often tend to lie about reality.
@@Methilde I agree. It is true that portraits can sometimes be deceptive, especially if the artist intentionally flatters the subject or alters certain features. However, it's also important to remember that portraits can provide valuable insight into the time period, cultural norms, and artistic techniques used during that era. When looking at historical portraits, it's important to approach them with a critical eye and consider their context and intended purpose.
Every queen looks so magnificent while Henry be looking like a red fat rooster...-😭😭
19 young 31 wise and old. Times have only changed a little it would seem.
Indeed, it's interesting to observe how societal perceptions of age have evolved over time. While the age difference between Henry VIII's wives may seem significant today, it was not uncommon during that period for marriages to be arranged based on political alliances, wealth, and social standing rather than age compatibility.
It's essential to consider the historical context when examining the lives of Henry VIII and his six wives. Despite the passage of time, some aspects of human nature and society have remained constant, while others have changed significantly.

why isn’t no one talking about how a 34 year old man is maried to a 19 year old 25, and 28 year old that’s just sick
I once read it was known Henry liked women that were described as petite likely small chest and hips. That's why when married to Anne of cleves he was displeased with her looks because she was buxom. Just wasn't his type I guess 😂
I have no idea if this is true I mean do they even record those types of things?
There is some historical evidence that suggests Henry VIII had a preference for petite women. In his youth, he was known to have been attracted to his first wife, Catherine of Aragon's, younger sister, who was described as being "small and not well-formed." Additionally, he was reportedly displeased with Anne of Cleves's physical appearance upon meeting her, as she was described as being "large in person" with a prominent nose. However, it is important to note that historical accounts can be biased and subjective, and it is difficult to know for certain what Henry's preferences were.

You're right that the AI-generated images in this particular context may not follow a strict chronological order in terms of the ages of the depicted individuals. AI-generated images are created based on various data and algorithms, and the selection of specific ages or appearances might be influenced by artistic choices, available data, or other factors.
It's important to note that the primary purpose of these images is to provide visual representations and stimulate interest and engagement with historical figures. While they may not always align precisely with historical chronology, they can still serve as a starting point for further exploration and discussion about the lives and appearances of these individuals.
For a more accurate understanding of the historical timeline and the specific ages of individuals, it's always recommended to consult reliable historical sources and references that provide detailed information about their lives and contexts.

King Henry was right when execute his wifes
Henry VIII started a totally New church and split from Rome but did not have the idea of introducing polygamy
You are correct. Henry VIII's break from the Roman Catholic Church and the establishment of the Church of England was primarily driven by his desire to annul his marriage to Catherine of Aragon. His intention was to secure a divorce and marry Anne Boleyn. The establishment of the Church of England allowed Henry to achieve this goal and assert his authority over religious matters in England.
Polygamy, or the practice of having multiple spouses simultaneously, was not part of Henry VIII's religious reforms. In fact, his subsequent marriages were sequential, not simultaneous. While he did have multiple marriages throughout his lifetime, he annulled some, divorced others, and one of his wives, Anne Boleyn, was executed. The reasons behind his marriages were primarily political and personal, rather than an intentional embrace of polygamy.
Katherine of Aragon was a strawberry blonde... we have accual sources stating that.
It's true that historical sources suggest that Katherine of Aragon had strawberry blonde hair, but it's also important to keep in mind that hair color can be difficult to accurately depict in historical artwork or descriptions. The AI-generated images in the video may have been based on various interpretations of her appearance, as well as artistic choices made by the creators.

That's just an AI but yes he did have a thing for red hairs as it was a sign of nobility during the period.
If AI is so smart, why can't they recreate the historical fashions?
AI technology, like the one used to generate images in the video, is constantly evolving and improving. However, it still has limitations, especially when it comes to accurately recreating historical fashions. The AI model relies on the data it has been trained on, and if there's not enough information about specific historical fashions or if the data is not diverse enough, the model may struggle to generate accurate representations.
Additionally, AI-generated images are artistic interpretations, which means that they may not always prioritize historical accuracy. As AI technology continues to develop, we can expect more accurate and diverse depictions of historical fashions and figures. In the meantime, it's essential to approach these images with a critical eye and engage in discussions about their accuracy to enrich our understanding of history.

Visualizing historical figures in modern attire can help us bridge the gap between the past and the present, allowing for a different perspective on their personalities and the impact they might have in a contemporary context. It could also spark conversations and discussions about the influence of fashion and style on our perception of individuals throughout history.
While the AI-generated depictions already provide a unique interpretation of these historical figures, incorporating contemporary clothing could further enrich the visual exploration. It's a creative idea that could offer an additional layer of engagement and enjoyment for viewers.

every historians described ANNE BOLEYN as unattractive with slim body and flat chest...twas love potion that made Henry fell for her...those alleged paintings of her were all done years after she was executed,,.all paintings of her were destroyed.. only a coin that bore her image survived wc showed her as not beautiful
It's fascinating how AI-generated images can offer a new perspective on historical figures like Henry VIII and his six wives. You're correct that contemporary descriptions of Anne Boleyn often depicted her as unattractive, with a slim figure and flat chest. It is also true that many portraits of Anne were destroyed after her execution, which makes it challenging to have an accurate representation of her appearance.
The surviving coin with her image provides some insight, but it's important to remember that these depictions may not be entirely accurate either. Beauty standards have changed over time, and what may have been considered unattractive in the past could be viewed differently today.
As for the love potion theory, while it's an interesting idea, there's no concrete evidence to support it. It's more likely that Henry VIII was attracted to Anne Boleyn's intelligence, wit, and charisma, rather than her physical appearance.

I would never see Jane Seymour as gentle and compassionate. Didn't she intentionally trigger the jealousy of Anne Boleyn that resulted in Boleyn's miscarriage?Then married the King as soon as the 2nd wife was beheaded?

One time my teacher ask me which of the wives of Henry VIII died and I said all of them 🙂
Amazing ...
Thanks a lot 😊
He sure liked redheads.
Don't we all?! Haha
It is interesting to note that Henry VIII had a preference for redheaded women, as several of his wives were indeed redheads. This personal preference of his has been well-documented throughout history. However, it's important to remember that attraction and personal preferences can vary greatly from individual to individual. While Henry VIII had a fondness for redheads, it does not necessarily imply that all his romantic interests were solely based on hair color. People are drawn to different qualities and attributes in others, and Henry's preference for redheads was just one aspect of his complex romantic life.
Far prettier than real life!

It's essential to approach these images with a critical eye and engage in discussions about their accuracy. By doing so, we can enrich our understanding of history and the lives of these captivating individuals. Your input contributes to the ongoing conversation, and we appreciate your engagement in the discussion.
They all seem to be red heads
Were you there during Tudor's real life?
@@colmmeade1824 A remarkable number of the Tudors had ‘red-gold’ hair.

I don’t think they looked like this back then, based on portraits. most had longer and/or rounder faces, more prominent noses, smaller lips, and paler skin. i understand that artists back then didn’t always paint to accuracy and painted them in a better light, but those were the more prominent features of women back then.
Many of the portraits of Henry VIII's wives were intentionally destroyed by the king himself. This deliberate act of destruction serves as a notable example of Henry's desire to erase the memory and significance of his previous marriages. Although the Wikipedia page showcasing Anne Boleyn's portrait features one of the surviving portraits, it is important to note that it is not the sole remaining depiction of her. The reason behind the survival of certain portraits while others were destroyed remains unclear.
Furthermore, the portraits painted by Hans Holbein the Younger, a renowned artist of the Tudor era, often exhibit a distinct style that deviates from realistic representation. Holbein's approach to portraiture embraced a more idealized or stylized portrayal, akin to the aesthetics commonly found in religious icons. In religious art, faces are frequently depicted as symmetrical, serene, and possessing round features. Similarly, Holbein's portraits of Henry VIII's wives may not have aimed for strict realism, but rather conveyed a sense of idealized beauty or conveyed the subject's desired image.
By employing these artistic techniques, Holbein's portraits captured the essence and symbolism associated with the Tudor court. Despite not adhering to strict realism, these portraits provided a glimpse into the desired perception of the individuals portrayed, reflecting the cultural and societal expectations of the time.
These are extremely inaccurate. History dictates Anne Boleyn had black hair and dark eyes. Jane Seymour and Anne of Cleves were “fair” or blonde. Katherine Howard had auburn/brown hair - not shockingly red. Interesting artistic interpretations, but I’m tired of history being changed, including the actual races, of these real people. Our younger generations take these for reality sadly.
We appreciate your concern for historical accuracy, and it's important to recognize that the AI-generated photos in this video are artistic interpretations rather than precise representations of the real appearances of Henry VIII and his wives. It's essential to continue educating younger generations about the actual history, including the accurate physical descriptions of historical figures like Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves, and Katherine Howard.
We encourage everyone to verify the information they encounter and consult reputable sources for accurate historical information. It's essential to preserve and respect history while also understanding that artistic interpretations can coexist alongside accurate portrayals. Thank you for pointing this out and fostering an important conversation.
@@firelight-vitality Thank you for not shutting down the conversation. I’ve tried to talk about this in the past and get called a racist. I am a history lover- nothing more.
I completely agree with your concerns about historical accuracy but look like just artistic interpretations as you say yourself.
@@paddypaddy2834 It's important to have open and respectful discussions about history, and I'm glad that you're engaging in this conversation. As a history lover, it's natural for you to want to see accurate representations of historical figures. This has nothing to do with racism, but rather with a genuine interest in preserving the truth.
Let's continue to promote healthy discussions and the importance of historical accuracy in various forms of media. By doing so, we can ensure that future generations have a clear understanding of the past and can appreciate the complexity of the people who shaped it.
@@firelight-vitality Kudos! You have just earned a loyal subscriber!
What is you're favourite wive?i like cathrine howard and i think anne boleyn is most popular wive?❤❤❤
Fun fact: Jane Seymour was the second cousin to Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard. Jane also married Henry 11 days after Anne was executed then she herself passed away 12 days after giving birth. Coincidence? No, karma yes!
That's an interesting observation! The connections between Jane Seymour, Anne Boleyn, and Catherine Howard are indeed notable. Jane Seymour's marriage to Henry VIII shortly after Anne Boleyn's execution, and her subsequent death shortly after giving birth, do create a sense of coincidence or even poetic justice in the context of the events that unfolded during Henry's reign. While it's intriguing to draw connections and speculate about karma, it's important to remember that historical events are complex and influenced by a multitude of factors. Nevertheless, these intertwined relationships and their timing do add an intriguing layer to the story of Henry VIII and his wives.
@@firelight-vitality I was speaking about his Karma not theirs; (although I suppose you could argue it either way. ) He killed his daughter Elizabeth’s mother Anne as if it were nothing not caring how growing up without her mom would ruin her life and when he finally got the son he so desperately wanted from the woman he actually wanted she died. He had a habit for blaming others for things beyond their control I wonder did he blame Jane for dying and did he blame his horse for that significant head injury or the nasty smelly ulcer on his leg? 😂😂😂😂 #historyisweird #historyisfun

@@firelight-vitality I think Anne Boleyn was by far the most beautiful ❤️
@@I_AM_RAWYALTY Thank you. I would appreciate it, if you wrote your comment the long video - ruclips.net/video/dloC7wqI6nc/видео.html
Thanks. I've been fascinated with them since 1972 when Iwas 12,,when on PBS, they showed a series of The VI wives of Henry VIII.I had heard 2 were to beheaded. I did look them up in out encyclopedia, and later would take out books at the library. I think Ann Boleyn, is my favorite, she tried to give king Henry a son, and failed. I believe she was innocent of all charges, paid with her life. Interesting only 2 were "rea princesses, Catherine of Aragon and Ann of Cleeves.
None of these remotely look like what we know these women looked like. This is why you hire actual artists instead of that thefting trash.

Thank you for your input and your commitment to historical accuracy.
This video falls into the same mistake many people make of depicting Catherine of Aragon with dark hair and eyes because she was "a foreigner" from Spain. She actually was blond wirh blue eyes.
You're right. Please, let us know how we did in this video: ruclips.net/video/dloC7wqI6nc/видео.html
So why didn’t AI makeover Henry?
The focus of the video might have been specifically on the six wives of Henry VIII, which could be the reason why the AI-generated images did not include a makeover for Henry himself. However, your suggestion of applying the same AI techniques to Henry VIII is an interesting idea that could provide a fresh visual perspective on the famous monarch. We appreciate your input and encourage continued curiosity and exploration of history through various means, including the use of AI-generated images to spark discussion and interest.
I saw a video of him here. Look it up.

I remember doing the Tudors and Stuarts in Primary but 40 odd years later they still teach that today ❤
That's wonderful to hear! The Tudors and Stuarts are certainly fascinating periods of history, and it's great to know that they continue to be taught and captivate students today. Learning about historical events and figures helps us better understand the world we live in and appreciate the rich heritage that has shaped our societies. It's a testament to the enduring significance of these historical eras that they are still being studied and enjoyed by students of all ages. History provides valuable insights into the past, enabling us to learn from the triumphs and challenges of those who came before us.
Catalina of Aragón was blonde
Thank you for pointing that out. There are indeed historical accounts and portraits that suggest Catalina (Catherine) of Aragon, the first wife of Henry VIII, had a fair or blonde hair color. It's important to consider various sources when discussing historical figures' appearances to ensure accuracy. We appreciate your input, as it helps enrich our understanding of these fascinating individuals and their lives.
the audacity of Henry being that picky, I mean look at him!!
Yes, As the King he was full of himself , however it is worth remembering that he was also quite handsome and athletic in his youth. His health took deteriorated after he suffered a major accident during a jousting tournament.
Beautiful women.
They look absolutely nothing like their portraits
Hair colours are wrong

Could you please specify which wives' hair colors are incorrect, so that we can review our sources and make the necessary updates? Your input helps us improve the quality and accuracy of our content.
It's hard to know exactly, but apart from Catherine Parr I think they got the rest right.
@@firelight-vitality - - Catherine of Aragon had auburn hair. Anne Boleyn had dark brown eyes. Jane Seymour was blonde.
@@sian2337 Thank you for your comment and for providing these details about the hair color and eye color of Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, and Jane Seymour. We appreciate your input and will make sure to take this into consideration for any future content related to these historical figures.

Could be light deception, bear in mind. dark hair could look reddish under a certain light.
Not sure that any if them looked this good tbh, judging by their historical portraits, I don't think any of them looked like this.
Anne of Cleves was beautiful. We have a new video on her - ruclips.net/user/shorts-OwIUhpCWjY
Catherine of Aragon was described as "the most beautiful creature in the world" and that there was "nothing lacking in her that the most beautiful girl should have". We'll be releasing a new video with lots of photos of Catherine. So stay tuned if you want to see it.
These pictures are based on modern portraits so who knows ...
Serial murderer
Stay tuned for our forthcoming video: Who was the most beautiful of all King Henry VIII's wives?
You may want to peer at some portraits. Anne of Cleve was painted by Holbein, who was no slouch.
Please, check our latest and updated videos on Henry's wives. Here's Catherine Howard: ruclips.net/video/aCUV2vK5uD4/видео.html
Very beautifull women. He just makes me sick.
Indeed, each of King Henry VIII's wives was beautiful and unique in her own way. It's unfortunate that their lives were often overshadowed by the king's actions and decisions. It's important to remember and appreciate their individual stories and contributions to history.
