    Anne, being pregnant, must have been very tired after the long day yesterday and all of the ceremony today. She must have been an amazing woman to handle the long ceremonies with such grace.
    I would have loved to have been there and seen it all.

    Anne must have loved the fact that the Duke of Suffolk, Charles Brandon, who was Henry's best friend and one of Anne's mortal enemies, was made High Steward of the Day. It is amazing to me that Anne remained gracious at the very end of those VERY long and exhausting days, all while pregnant! Thank you for all your wonderful videos and website, Claire! You do an amazing job!!!

    Thank you for that wonderful and detailed description of the coronation of Queen Anne. I agree that it would be wonderful to have been a fly on the wall during that great occasion. I also wonder about the incredible stamina is must have take Queen Anne to with stand not only the long day of coronation events, but the day long procession the day before. Of course it is all tinged with us knowing now, what she didn't know then - that less than three years later she would suffer a traitors death. I would hope that all that good will and excitement for the future would somehow be transmitted to the future Queen Elizabeth in utero, so that she could somehow feel the love and devotion of the people she would someday rule.

    So glad you are so knowledgeable about the Tudor period. You are easy to listen to and learn from. Your narrative brings the time of Anne Boleyn's coronation alive. Anne must've been very tired from the previous day; now she's walking all the way bare foot. All those people walking before her - the carpet may not have been too clean by the time she walked on it. Lying down! On her belly! Really? Such stamina! Thank You for this lesson, Claire.

    the fact that 3 short years later , anne was actually dead on her coronation date , is sobering indeed . how sad . you know I find myself wishing , that she would have started having children , years earlier, instead of holding out . because when she started having children , she was getting along in age . I think her chances would have been better to have successful births , if she was younger . I think henry , would have still married her . her coronation , must have been the coronation of the century..........thank you , for the share....

    Henry being behind the screen and the unusual usage of the crown were both really interesting details. I would have so wanted him to be able to be there though. It’s such a big day, and to have to not share that with my guy would be kind of sad. The prostration, man, I can’t imagine either! On that stone! Owwww! Elizabeth said she had the heart of a lion, but by rights she could have had a heart of stone being all smushed up against it while her mother was pregnant! Poor Anne and poor Elizabeth! I love all the details about the clothes, the grandeur. EIGHTY course! We think eight is a bit much! I can’t imagine how she didn’t throw up. I know you could wave the dishes away and stuff, but still! And the horseback detail was so cool! What a sight! As you said in The Fall of Anne Boleyn, their deaths were so unjust and cruel, but at least in the time they did have, they really lived. I’m happy Anne did have some victorious days in there, and it wasn’t all sorrow by any means.

I love the way you talk about it, I can really visualise the day thanks to you. Poor Pregnant Anne, how exhausting. Even if not pregnant, it would have been exhausting.

      According to Alison Weir, the public was NOT fond of Anne at all (they thought she was an immoral usurper). The crowd saw the intertwined letters (H and A) on Anne's livery. The crowds started, "HA! HA!" By Anne's description, she heard very little cheering and saw many caps on heads.

      I could be mistaken, but wasn't Mary Tudor already dead by Anne's coronation? She was often unwell during Henry and Anne's courtship. Had she been alive, though, I doubt she attended and perhaps would have blamed illness on her absence.
