I love how she’s portrayed accurately in this. Catherine had Reddish hair and blue eyes but i’ve seen a lot of adaptations portray her with black hair.
Many just go to the generalized appearance of Spaniards being dark haired and dark featured and forget that the old royal families very rarely had dark hair and dark eyes. Catherine was auburn haired and blue eyed, so you are correct :)

Catherine managed to defeat a Scottish army when Henry was battling in France. The best queen England could have, still abandoned in a tower because of a king's stupidity
@Marissa Fremista I don't see this as your joke. First, she was an old woman and it is natural for her to use materials to make her look beautiful. Also, when Catherine grew up, her beauty faded, she did not remain beautiful until the end. And Catherine didn't even fight because she was pregnant. I don't mean to insult Catherine but it's true.
S RKH Physically - not. Of royal blood, even when proclaimed bastards - they could not receive any corporal punishment or be tortured, or their virginity attacked. Emotional abuse, however, was brutal. And Mary has it worse than Elizabeth.
Lucas Costa Are you from Great Britain by any chance? “Maybe possibly?” Sounds like “highly likely” with zero evidence, right? This has been quite popular lately, don’t you think? As to my comment - we were discussing emotional and physical abuse. “S RKH” responded and I quote: “... and, perhaps, physically abused” with regards to Mary and Elizabeth Tudors, daughters of Henry VIII. And I responded that according to contemporary laws physical abuse of nobility was prohibited. I didn’t spell it out in detail, however, both Mary and Elizabeth barely resided in their father’s household throughout Henry VIII’s life. Therefore, he did not have a chance to physically beat either one of them. When they were at court during his subsequent marriages - they were always there during court functions. And there was no evidence in letters or other documents Henry ever raised a hand at either one of his daughters at those functions. All ambassadors would definitely inform their monarchs about the fact if that actually occurred. Spanish, French and Venetian ambassadors offered quite a bit of detail about Henry’s court life and events in their letters, which were preserved and studied by historians. So, direct physical abuse of the daughters by their father can be safely ruled out. What is left of potential physical abuse is corporal punishment, tortures, imprisonment, etc, on Henry’s orders and conducted by others. And nothing like that has ever been reported with regards to Mary and Elizabeth during their father’s life. Therefore, we ruled out any possibility of physical abuse of Mary and Elizabeth by Henry VIII directly it’s by others on Henry’s orders. As to emotional abuse of both daughters - it is well evidenced in contemporary written artifacts. I hope now it is a bit more clear for you, my friend. We did talk “about that”.
Ppl nowadays dream of being born into the royal family, to be heirs of the crown. But the heirs of the crown in the past had chains on their neck, a curse of always looking over their shoulder because many want them the crown and want them dead.

Actually it isnt author she married,he was Henry's brother.in a nutshell this is very fiction.same w the white queen and princess.margret never expected Henry to be king.
ann l she was married to Arthur , his brother but then she got married to Henry and was queen for a while until he banished her and annulled their marriage . That’s when he moved on to Anne Boylen.

That's why she was chosen among other factors to marry Arthur, prince of Wales, to provide legitimacy and stabilize a country devastated by a civil war.
Thank you for this comment, I knew she had English blood and that she had claims to the English throne more so than Henry but I couldn't remember her great-grandmother's name.
It is plausible because many Spaniards have those traits. For having light features you actually need to inherit them from both your parents. It doesn't matter if she had English royal blood or not, which, for the msot part, was French, anyway.
@@goodaimshield1115 it is perfectly possible that she inherited her fair complexion for her great grandmother which was English. Blue eyes and fair traits can jump several generations. I have blue for instance and both my parents have brown eyes.
He actually didn't have to do much to marry him. Ferdinand of Aragon and Henry VII wanted to marry them after Catherine said that her first marriage was not consummated. It was still much up for debates, but really, all Henry VIII had to do is become the king and declare the impending marriage.
@@zwowwasmr the show is HIGHLY inaccurate lol. Catherine and Henry never exchanged letters prior to meeting. When she got married, Henry was around ten or eleven. They did get engaged later, but after Isabel's death, Catherine lost her status as a desirable and eligible bride so Henry broke off the engagement at the suggestion of his father sometime in 1506. Her father, Ferdinand, refused to take her back in Spain. No one would give her allowances nor willingly keep her at their royal court, she was in virtual poverty till her father announced her as the Spanish ambassador for Tudor royal court. After Henry VII died in 1509, Henry VIII said that his father's last wish was that he married Catherine. They married when Henry was almost eighteen and Catherine twenty-three. I sometimes feel like Henry lied about his father's last wish on his deathbed. He might've actually fallen in love with Catherine. She was beautiful, smart, strong, and kind. It wouldn't be a surprise.
Henry never fought to be with her. It was his father’s last wish, and he as only 18 years old. When he actually fell in love with someone he got kinda crazy and created a whole new church to be with this someone.
I think in the actual show she says something to the effect of “No, of course not”. The video is just edited to make it look like she didn’t say anything.
Henry was so desperate for a son to rule after him that he never realised that he had two amazing and powerful daughters who would rule the world after him. He didn't love any of his wives. He just gave them affection until they couldn't produce an heir. He was happy that one wife was able to provide him with a son but I don't think he actually loved any of them.
I like how both the actors picked as Henry and Catherine, have similarities in looks with the real life monarchs. Like Catherine Aragon has red hair and blue eyes and Henry has red hair. Usually they make Henry with Brown hair and make Catherine brown haired and brown eyes. I wouldn’t mind if it were either way, but this way it’s very pleasing. Lol
It's a good depiction of young Henry with auburn hair instead of black as in previous shows or movies. And he's slim and good looking as he was meant to be when he was younger. Also I love this Catherine .
I felt so bad for her 🥺 she had heart cancer and she probably thought she was dying from a broken heart..... the fact that he deserted her forbid Mary to see her towards the end of her life .... cruel I heard Anne and Henry both cried on the day of her funeral bet it’s from the guilt.
no, henry and anne never cried because of their guilt towards catherine. they even wear bright colours like yellow to celebrate catherine’s death, when people bash them the council justify their action by spreading information that yellow are the mourning color in spain. thats why until now some people still think like that when in fact spain mourning color are white and black. anne is said to be very happy that finally she is the only queen of england bc even after the divorced people still calls catherine as the true queen of england
I want to clarify something, spain didn't exist at that moment, there were two kingdoms, Castilla and Aragon, it wasn't until other king that it became Spain but at the moment this happened Spain didn't exist but they keep calling it like that even thought at the beginning of this video.the woman says princesa de Castilla and the subtitle says, princess of Spain Edit because I really see that many of you failed history at school. The were known as the catholics kings, Fernando II of Aragon and Idabel I of Castilla. Not any Spain reference yet. Then they conquisted Granada. And, with Navarra kingdom, Canarias and Melilla and some others it was like the first time that all this territory was under the same kings but each place had its own rules. That's why Isabel was queen of Castilla and consort of Aragon. It's very simple. Spain wasn't a thing. Next.

Boțoacă Veronica yes ! It showed on the last episode instead of a preview for the following week because it was done it just said continue in 2020 for the Spanish princess. , they still have years to cover for her as well. She was a queen for over 20 years. I’m obsessed with the white queen , the white princess & the Spanish princess I could watch just those shows and be more then content.
The series is an adaptation of historian and author Philippa Gregory's ; "The Constant Princess" from her Plantagenet & Tudor series of novels. Gregory writes historical fiction from the female participants viewpoint; quite well given there is so little on record concerning these women at the heart of this infamous period of English history. Also most of these events occurred when written records such as journal, diaries and personal letters would have been very dangerous to keep. StarZ has made TV series of two others; "The White Queen" and "The White Princess" and "The Other Boleyn Girl" was made into a movie with Scarlett Johansson. My fav is "The Lady of the Rivers" the story of Elizabeth's mother Jacquetta which along with "The Kingmaker's Daughter" (Anne Neville) and "The Red Queen" (Margaret Beaufort) were dovetailed into "The White Queen" series but are well worth a read or listen on their own. "The King's Curse" is excellent too.The entire set of novels are available on Audible too and the narrators are very, very good.
Badass catholic queen. One of the best monarchs of our history, alongside with her mother Isabel of Castile, King Alfred I, Godfrey of Bullion and King Baldwin IV.
My name is Catherine of Aragon Was married 24 years, I'm a paragon Of royalty, my loyalty is to the Vatican So if you try to dump me You won't try that again

I'm so glad to see more videos of Catherine of Aragon and the Spanish Princess! She was and will always be Henry's true Queen, along with Jane Seymour and Catherine Parr.
and Anne Boleyn, Anne of Cleves (the only winner of Henry games) and Katherine Howard... he literally turned the whole country uproar for a no-name Anne Boleyn whose impact England & Vatican still feel today, mother of one of the greatest monarchs the world has ever seen, let them grumble but this is how it's gonna be
@@misslanchi5178 that's a bit of a exaggeration when u say that it's still felt today what he did. It happened so long. Yes it's still remembered this of course. But because of his screw ups we had Queen Elizabeth 1st who was great Queen who made England a power house in Europe at the time.
@@shoshanahtheodile9586 It is felt, Queen Elizabeth II is the head of the Church, Vatican wants to unite Christians but the Queen is their supreme governess, they still feel the consequences of what Henry did
Although Queen Isabel de Castilla (Isabella for English speakers) is always represented as a brunette woman in foreign productions, she is actually described in the chronicles of the time as a blonde one. In any case, Spanish actress Alicia Borrachero appears here quite epic wearing armor.
@@atunaco I am Spanish and I know that too well obviously, the only thing I am saying It is that she never had to wore any protection of war, she even didn't knew how yo fight with a sword.
I find this really confusing. Instead of making a british actress learn spanish and fake a spanish accent wouldn't have been much easier to pick a spanish one? I mean even if she performs well, for me a native speaker it sounds ridiculous. When she speaks spanish it sounds british and when she speaks english it sounds too perfect, you hardly notice the accent. How come they have chosen a spanish actress to portray the mother and not one for the main character?
Elena O im a native spanish speaker too and to me it doesn’t really sound that bad idk why people are making such a big deal out of it. at least she resembles the real Catherine of Aragon which was a redhead with blue eyes other shows portray her with black hair, brown eyes and a tan because of stupid inaccurate spanish stereotypes. Also her mother Isabel in the show looks nothing like the real Isabel either which was blonde, pale and blue eyed.
@@tanyahicks Plenty of people with blue and green eyes in my family alone, let alone the whole of Spain. Redheads are pretty rare period. The country with the highest concentration of redheads is Scotland at 13% of the population. Redheads need to start making more babies together.
edstar83 I have redheads in the family and we are partly Scottish but it doesn’t seem to matter if two redheads get together all that much. My aunt has dark blonde hair and married a man with dark hair, their son came out red as a fire engine. If it’s there in the genes it’ll come out. 😉😀
1. Queen Isabella was blond, had fair skin and blue eyes. 2. Black people who had converted to Christians served a maids NEVER as ladies in waiting. 3. Spain didn't existed yet, not until Juana's son Charles (Catherine's nephew) inherited the Kingdoms of Castilla and Aragon uniting "Las Españas." Positive point: Spanish people speaking English noways have a very similar accent to the one presented in this series.
One note. Charles, Catherine's nephew did not inherit the Kingdom. His mother was so mentally ill that after the deaths of her mother and husband she broke down totally. Her husband was Phillip the Handsome, heir to the Holy Roman Empire, so her oldest son, became the heir. When it became obvious she could not rule or even function, her father, Ferdinand, took control of Castille, he was the King of Aragon, but under the marriage pact with Isabel he could co-monarch both Kingdoms. After that he essentially locked up his daughter, Joanna, and made her co-heir with her son, Charles, then age 7. When Ferdinand died in 1516, Charles was 16 so he ruled with his mother but within 2 years became the King outright, despite the fact that his mother was still alive and only died 3 years before he did. He also became Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire at age 19 when his grandfather, Maximilian died.
"Do you see now how destinies are only meant for men in England" from the girl that through her marriages foreshadowed the union of England and Scotland.
Henry was such a pig that treated Catherine and Mary like trash! No wonder why Mary turned Rogue (no excusing her actions) but Henry was a real monster blinded by lust and power.
Is the series going to emphasize too much on teen-drama like romance between Henry and Catalina? In the books, the emphasis was far more on the tribulations of Catalina.
La mejor reina que jamás tuvo esa lluviosa,ventosa, neblinosa y triste islucha herética.que Dios quiera se abisme en las profundidades oceánicas de donde no debió nunca emerger
Her and Diana's similarities: 1.Their both Princess of Wales(when she was married to author) 2. They're betrayed by their husband 3. Their husband didn't deserve them 4. They've had breakdowns 5. They're the queen of people's hearts
She was already a Princess in our own right. Then a very well known and poplar Queen in her own right. He couldn’t do it. It would’ve had to have been a terrible accident. Cause he would’ve been put to death in the process of trying. Also yes Aragon, Castile and Rome would’ve all converged upon England very swiftly. Henry VIII knew who not to try.
This has got to be the worst, most inaccurate historical drama I have seen since The Tudors. Prince Henry was 10 years old when Katherine married Arthur. Hardly the age to write passionate love letters to a woman he had never met, much less sneak them thru diplomatic channels to Katherine. Ridiculous. Queen Isabella did not go around wearing armor, she terrified the Muslims without it. One city surrendered when they heard that Isabella was on her way. There was no Muslim attack on Katherine and the queen as they were on their way to put Katherine on the boat. Surely, someone at the time would have mentioned it. Also, Isabella had blonde hair. Prince Arthur was not as depicted. Despite the numerous allusions to Arthur being sickly, contemporary correspondence from the Hapsburg ambassador does not support this. He describes Arthur as very handsome, tall, healthy and intelligent. The Italian Ambassador noted that the prince was tall for his age and had a ‘singular beauty and grace’. Hardly the description of a sickly person with TB. And that was just the first 40 minutes, I didn't need to watch more.
MyrnaMinkoff it does not need to be completly accurate. It is a TV show not a documentary. They took a real life story and made it into entertainment. These kind of shows are not supposed to give you a history lesson, but open you to a world you might have not been interested in before. They open your appetite for history, incouraging you to learn more. That is my view on it. I saw The Tudors when I was 14 I think, and that was the time that I fell in love with English history. I went on and learnd about the Normand conquest, the Plantagenets, 100 years war, War of the Roses, and the Henry VIII, The Stuarts and so on.
This is a more accurate description of faces, clothes and circunstances of the travel of Catherine from Spain to England : ruclips.net/video/EwqT63fLiYs/видео.html
This is so historically in accurate where’s Maria De Salinas and Donna El Vira Maria and Katherine’s friendship is so important in the telling of her life story she was there till the end.
Including Maria De Salinas and Donna El Vira Maria makes for a much better story than focusing on the lives of her servants. Perhaps we will see them in season 2?
What an interesting woman. She was a magnanimous woman of great strength and merit. She was very determined, and wise and brave like her mother. So kind, yet so strong.
Exacto, de hecho su madre fue la reina más importante en la historia y por varias razones. Te animo que leas sobre su vida y reinado, es apasionante. Saludos.

Just a little historic explanation. It was not the Pope who stood against the annulment of Katherine and Henry's marriage. Yes, annulment, not divorce. It was her nephew Charles V, King of Spain and Holy Emperor, who considered it a humiliation for his aunt and for him. Besides, during the reign of Katherine's father and nephew, Spain and France were fighting each other for the control of Italy. Most popes supported France, so Charles, a devout Catholic, considered them his enemies and enemies of Spain. The marriage annulment was a good excuse to neutralize the Pope, so he sent his army to capture Rome. The city was sacked by Catholic soldiers and the Pope fled through a tunnel to Castel Sant Angelo protected by the Swiss Guards, most of whom were killed. Clement VII had to accept Charles' conditions, including the refusal to the marriage annulment
Divorced, beheaded, died... Divorced, beheaded, *survived.* and just for you tonight, were divorced. Beheaded, LIIIIIIIVVVVEEEEEEE! welcome to the show to the histor-remix- (you finish the song lyrics!!)
Why is the mother of Catherine represented like a dark women? Catherine mother was Elizabeth of Castilla, and Elizabeth was blond with blue eyes. This is described in all historic books.
She is represented not as a woman of color but as a woman who were outside a lot contrary to the norm of noble women sitting in their castles all the time, doing what only Kings were doing in that time of Europe's history. So I prefer to interpret it as her getting tan due to all the time she had to spent in the sun while leading her soldiers in surprassing the rebellions. Of course she and Catalina's skin wouldn't be the same despite having most of their genes in common and Isabella being born with a fair skintone. But the hair thing gets in the way -_-
Yes, great if you're creating your own fiction - by all means . But don't take a well-known chunk of history, tell the stories of actual historical characters, then inject such an incongruous thing. People believe this stuff. Catharine's parents spent their whole lives driving the Moors out of what is now Spain. While Moorish influence and learning remained, the Moors were Arabs, not sub-saharan blacks. Just glaring wokeness, why not give her a Chinese courtier - let everyone in.

They did get engaged later, but after Isabel's death, Catherine lost her status as a desirable and eligible bride so Henry broke off the engagement at the suggestion of his father sometime in 1506. Her father, Ferdinand, refused to take her back in Spain. No one would give her allowances nor willingly keep her at their royal court, she was in virtual poverty till her father announced her as the Spanish ambassador for Tudor royal court. After Henry VII died in 1509, Henry VIII said that his father's last wish was that he married Catherine. They married when Henry was almost eighteen and Catherine twenty-three.
I sometimes feel like Henry lied about his father's last wish on his deathbed. He might've actually fallen in love with Catherine. She was beautiful, smart, strong, and kind. It wouldn't be a surprise.
Henry never fought to be with her. It was his father’s last wish, and he as only 18 years old. When he actually fell in love with someone he got kinda crazy and created a whole new church to be with this someone.
As Shakespeare once said “the Queen of earthly Queens.”

Fatynn S Not the girl portraying Catherine of Aragon, but a different character yes 🙂
NANI???
I love how Katherine responds to Henry asking if she’d lain with Arthur. Just turns and walks away. Epic! 😎
I think in the actual show she says something to the effect of “No, of course not”. The video is just edited to make it look like she didn’t say anything.
Henry was so desperate for a son to rule after him that he never realised that he had two amazing and powerful daughters who would rule the world after him. He didn't love any of his wives. He just gave them affection until they couldn't produce an heir. He was happy that one wife was able to provide him with a son but I don't think he actually loved any of them.
Actor who played Henry was so wickedly good! And this last scene was delivered so flawlessly that it made the hair stand up on my neck.
Charlotte Hope did a great job as CATHERINE. She kept me in the series till the end. Really enjoyed it.
I like how both the actors picked as Henry and Catherine, have similarities in looks with the real life monarchs. Like Catherine Aragon has red hair and blue eyes and Henry has red hair. Usually they make Henry with Brown hair and make Catherine brown haired and brown eyes. I wouldn’t mind if it were either way, but this way it’s very pleasing. Lol
Welp looks like Lucy left Narnia for good and is working for the english court lmfao
She went way back into the past

My eyes are blessed. You did such a beautiful tribute. Wow, wow,wow this is incredible!
omg I love your videos, thank youuu!!
Aww stop I will blush. Just keep doing this great stuff! This video made my day.
It's a good depiction of young Henry with auburn hair instead of black as in previous shows or movies. And he's slim and good looking as he was meant to be when he was younger. Also I love this Catherine .
I felt so bad for her 🥺 she had heart cancer and she probably thought she was dying from a broken heart..... the fact that he deserted her forbid Mary to see her towards the end of her life .... cruel I heard Anne and Henry both cried on the day of her funeral bet it’s from the guilt.
no, henry and anne never cried because of their guilt towards catherine. they even wear bright colours like yellow to celebrate catherine’s death, when people bash them the council justify their action by spreading information that yellow are the mourning color in spain. thats why until now some people still think like that when in fact spain mourning color are white and black. anne is said to be very happy that finally she is the only queen of england bc even after the divorced people still calls catherine as the true queen of england
A true queen indeed. She knows when to fight for her rights without even bowing her head.
Exactly! ❤
Catherine of Aragon is one of all time tragic figures in history.
When u r spanish and you understand every single word.
It's great
I want to clarify something, spain didn't exist at that moment, there were two kingdoms, Castilla and Aragon, it wasn't until other king that it became Spain but at the moment this happened Spain didn't exist but they keep calling it like that even thought at the beginning of this video.the woman says princesa de Castilla and the subtitle says, princess of Spain
Edit because I really see that many of you failed history at school.
The were known as the catholics kings, Fernando II of Aragon and Idabel I of Castilla. Not any Spain reference yet. Then they conquisted Granada. And, with Navarra kingdom, Canarias and Melilla and some others it was like the first time that all this territory was under the same kings but each place had its own rules. That's why Isabel was queen of Castilla and consort of Aragon. It's very simple. Spain wasn't a thing. Next.
It's perhaps "generalized" for those, who don't know history that much, I suppose :-).
And Navarra Aka Reyno de Navarra.
It is put at the end or beginning of each episode that it isn't historically accurate.
@@michaja2 How can you know something when you do not know how much and you respond like a fool ...
The average person probably wouldn't know there were two separate Kingdoms. Using "Spain" makes it easier for the audience to follow the plot.

For those that keep asking. This is from the Starz tv station in the US it’s called “The Spanish Princess”. It was a 8 episode tv series.
The series is an adaptation of historian and author Philippa Gregory's ; "The Constant Princess" from her Plantagenet & Tudor series of novels. Gregory writes historical fiction from the female participants viewpoint; quite well given there is so little on record concerning these women at the heart of this infamous period of English history. Also most of these events occurred when written records such as journal, diaries and personal letters would have been very dangerous to keep. StarZ has made TV series of two others; "The White Queen" and "The White Princess" and "The Other Boleyn Girl" was made into a movie with Scarlett Johansson. My fav is "The Lady of the Rivers" the story of Elizabeth's mother Jacquetta which along with "The Kingmaker's Daughter" (Anne Neville) and "The Red Queen" (Margaret Beaufort) were dovetailed into "The White Queen" series but are well worth a read or listen on their own. "The King's Curse" is excellent too.The entire set of novels are available on Audible too and the narrators are very, very good.
Badass catholic queen. One of the best monarchs of our history, alongside with her mother Isabel of Castile, King Alfred I, Godfrey of Bullion and King Baldwin IV.
I love her and I love this edit! Good job wow 💕

I'm so glad to see more videos of Catherine of Aragon and the Spanish Princess! She was and will always be Henry's true Queen, along with Jane Seymour and Catherine Parr.
mercia van der Vyver Henry had a long list of true Queens 😂😂😂
and Anne Boleyn, Anne of Cleves (the only winner of Henry games) and Katherine Howard... he literally turned the whole country uproar for a no-name Anne Boleyn whose impact England & Vatican still feel today, mother of one of the greatest monarchs the world has ever seen, let them grumble but this is how it's gonna be
Why talking down other women? They all were victims of one monster.
@@misslanchi5178 that's a bit of a exaggeration when u say that it's still felt today what he did. It happened so long. Yes it's still remembered this of course. But because of his screw ups we had Queen Elizabeth 1st who was great Queen who made England a power house in Europe at the time.

Although Queen Isabel de Castilla (Isabella for English speakers) is always represented as a brunette woman in foreign productions, she is actually described in the chronicles of the time as a blonde one. In any case, Spanish actress Alicia Borrachero appears here quite epic wearing armor.
But she never fought in any war.
@@atunaco I am Spanish and I know that too well obviously, the only thing I am saying It is that she never had to wore any protection of war, she even didn't knew how yo fight with a sword.
I find this really confusing. Instead of making a british actress learn spanish and fake a spanish accent wouldn't have been much easier to pick a spanish one? I mean even if she performs well, for me a native speaker it sounds ridiculous. When she speaks spanish it sounds british and when she speaks english it sounds too perfect, you hardly notice the accent. How come they have chosen a spanish actress to portray the mother and not one for the main character?
Elena O im a native spanish speaker too and to me it doesn’t really sound that bad idk why people are making such a big deal out of it. at least she resembles the real Catherine of Aragon which was a redhead with blue eyes other shows portray her with black hair, brown eyes and a tan because of stupid inaccurate spanish stereotypes. Also her mother Isabel in the show looks nothing like the real Isabel either which was blonde, pale and blue eyed.
They could of used Mario Castro actress from Galicia Spain. ruclips.net/video/9QAHDy7I3uU/видео.html
I suppose Spanish girls with red hair and blue eyes are harder to come by.
@@tanyahicks Plenty of people with blue and green eyes in my family alone, let alone the whole of Spain. Redheads are pretty rare period. The country with the highest concentration of redheads is Scotland at 13% of the population.
Redheads need to start making more babies together.
edstar83 I have redheads in the family and we are partly Scottish but it doesn’t seem to matter if two redheads get together all that much. My aunt has dark blonde hair and married a man with dark hair, their son came out red as a fire engine. If it’s there in the genes it’ll come out. 😉😀

Beautiful video!!

Finalmente justicia para Catalina. Muchas gracias.
1:13 in the reign was a Sofia, there's a Lucia 😂😂 i can't help but i am crying right now :) it is so funny
Why do movies and documentaries always portray her as a brunette when the Trastamaras are known blondes?
Stereotypes and clichés, many anglosaxons think all Spaniards are dark-eyed and darkhaired, that is genetically imposible to be Spaniard and blond
This is so heartbreakingly beautiful but does justice to much an amazing woman...
1. Queen Isabella was blond, had fair skin and blue eyes. 2. Black people who had converted to Christians served a maids NEVER as ladies in waiting. 3. Spain didn't existed yet, not until Juana's son Charles (Catherine's nephew) inherited the Kingdoms of Castilla and Aragon uniting "Las Españas."
Positive point: Spanish people speaking English noways have a very similar accent to the one presented in this series.
One note. Charles, Catherine's nephew did not inherit the Kingdom. His mother was so mentally ill that after the deaths of her mother and husband she broke down totally. Her husband was Phillip the Handsome, heir to the Holy Roman Empire, so her oldest son, became the heir. When it became obvious she could not rule or even function, her father, Ferdinand, took control of Castille, he was the King of Aragon, but under the marriage pact with Isabel he could co-monarch both Kingdoms. After that he essentially locked up his daughter, Joanna, and made her co-heir with her son, Charles, then age 7. When Ferdinand died in 1516, Charles was 16 so he ruled with his mother but within 2 years became the King outright, despite the fact that his mother was still alive and only died 3 years before he did. He also became Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire at age 19 when his grandfather, Maximilian died.
Thank you very much. It was so helpful.
She inherited the bravery and deterlination of her mother Elizabeth of Castile
And her father
"Do you see now how destinies are only meant for men in England" from the girl that through her marriages foreshadowed the union of England and Scotland.
Imagine being the daughter of a woman like Queen Isabella the Catholic and ending up like that
Such a shame
Henry was such a pig that treated Catherine and Mary like trash! No wonder why Mary turned Rogue (no excusing her actions) but Henry was a real monster blinded by lust and power.
What a coincidence Catherine of Aragon was born the 15th of December just like my mom.
And Mary of Scots was born the 8th December just like me.
Nice love the editing 😍
I wish I could’ve known her, she was a great woman
Is the series going to emphasize too much on teen-drama like romance between Henry and Catalina? In the books, the emphasis was far more on the tribulations of Catalina.
Which book was this based on?

Her and Diana's similarities:

2. They're betrayed by their husband
3. Their husband didn't deserve them
4. They've had breakdowns
5. They're the queen of people's hearts
The one true queen
1:19 she looks like Anna from frozen 2, with the coat and the hairstyle and everything. That’s cool
She was the one wife Henry VIII knew he couldn't execute, because otherwise he would have to deal with Ferdinand of Aragon and Isabella of Castile.
They were dead when the divorce was happening. The problem there was Catalina´s nephew, Carlos V the emperor
They were dead. He was more scared of her nephew Charles since he was extremely powerful.
She was already a Princess in our own right. Then a very well known and poplar Queen in her own right. He couldn’t do it. It would’ve had to have been a terrible accident. Cause he would’ve been put to death in the process of trying. Also yes Aragon, Castile and Rome would’ve all converged upon England very swiftly. Henry VIII knew who not to try.
The ending left some sick feeling in my stomach, not gonna lie.
This has got to be the worst, most inaccurate historical drama I have seen since The Tudors. Prince Henry was 10 years old when Katherine married Arthur. Hardly the age to write passionate love letters to a woman he had never met, much less sneak them thru diplomatic channels to Katherine. Ridiculous. Queen Isabella did not go around wearing armor, she terrified the Muslims without it. One city surrendered when they heard that Isabella was on her way. There was no Muslim attack on Katherine and the queen as they were on their way to put Katherine on the boat. Surely, someone at the time would have mentioned it. Also, Isabella had blonde hair. Prince Arthur was not as depicted. Despite the numerous allusions to Arthur being sickly, contemporary correspondence from the Hapsburg ambassador does not support this. He describes Arthur as very handsome, tall, healthy and intelligent. The Italian Ambassador noted that the prince was tall for his age and had a ‘singular beauty and grace’. Hardly the description of a sickly person with TB. And that was just the first 40 minutes, I didn't need to watch more.
MyrnaMinkoff it does not need to be completly accurate. It is a TV show not a documentary. They took a real life story and made it into entertainment. These kind of shows are not supposed to give you a history lesson, but open you to a world you might have not been interested in before. They open your appetite for history, incouraging you to learn more. That is my view on it. I saw The Tudors when I was 14 I think, and that was the time that I fell in love with English history. I went on and learnd about the Normand conquest, the Plantagenets, 100 years war, War of the Roses, and the Henry VIII, The Stuarts and so on.
@@biancatudor4166 except there is sadly a very large amount of people that think that Philippa Gregory is historically accurate
This is a more accurate description of faces, clothes and circunstances of the travel of Catherine from Spain to England : ruclips.net/video/EwqT63fLiYs/видео.html
This is so historically in accurate where’s Maria De Salinas and Donna El Vira Maria and Katherine’s friendship is so important in the telling of her life story she was there till the end.
Including Maria De Salinas and Donna El Vira Maria makes for a much better story than focusing on the lives of her servants. Perhaps we will see them in season 2?
She is buried in Peterborough Cathedral - Cambridgeshire UK.
What an interesting woman. She was a magnanimous woman of great strength and merit. She was very determined, and wise and brave like her mother. So kind, yet so strong.

Just a little historic explanation. It was not the Pope who stood against the annulment of Katherine and Henry's marriage. Yes, annulment, not divorce. It was her nephew Charles V, King of Spain and Holy Emperor, who considered it a humiliation for his aunt and for him. Besides, during the reign of Katherine's father and nephew, Spain and France were fighting each other for the control of Italy. Most popes supported France, so Charles, a devout Catholic, considered them his enemies and enemies of Spain. The marriage annulment was a good excuse to neutralize the Pope, so he sent his army to capture Rome. The city was sacked by Catholic soldiers and the Pope fled through a tunnel to Castel Sant Angelo protected by the Swiss Guards, most of whom were killed. Clement VII had to accept Charles' conditions, including the refusal to the marriage annulment
Julio Salazar such a devouted nephew 💞

Wow a tv show which actually portrays me correctly
Fantastic job :)
Why is the mother of Catherine represented like a dark women? Catherine mother was Elizabeth of Castilla, and Elizabeth was blond with blue eyes. This is described in all historic books.
She is represented not as a woman of color but as a woman who were outside a lot contrary to the norm of noble women sitting in their castles all the time, doing what only Kings were doing in that time of Europe's history. So I prefer to interpret it as her getting tan due to all the time she had to spent in the sun while leading her soldiers in surprassing the rebellions. Of course she and Catalina's skin wouldn't be the same despite having most of their genes in common and Isabella being born with a fair skintone. But the hair thing gets in the way -_-
I read this book once ..it was supposed to be a collection of her diaries and it was really something
And Henry is the founder of Anglican Church so he could continue his abuse of women and his promiscuity.😤
yes, dicusting!!!! and he even was proud of it!!!! And the English people still now they admire him. Pathetic!!!!!!!!!!!
Queen Catherine is my 29x great aunt she was a bad ass for sure
1:24 An african lady in england? During this time? What was her role?

Yes, great if you're creating your own fiction - by all means . But don't take a well-known chunk of history,
tell the stories of actual historical characters, then inject such an incongruous thing. People believe this stuff.
Catharine's parents spent their whole lives driving the Moors out of what is now Spain. While Moorish influence
and learning remained, the Moors were Arabs, not sub-saharan blacks. Just glaring wokeness, why not give her
a Chinese courtier - let everyone in.
