Lady Ann Boleyn was the second wife to King Henry VIII..King Henry is the second monarch of the Tudor dynasty succeeding his father, Henry VII..He was known for his role in the separation of the Church of England from the Roman Catholic Church..Henry was also known for marrying multiple times without producing a son to succeed his throne..After Henry married Anne Boelyn, she gave birth to Elizabeth I which Henry was very discouraged as he was expecting a son..Three miscarriage followed and luck seemed not to be on their side..However, Henry was courting Jane Seymour and surely it made Anne more determined to have a son..On 1536, Henry had Anne investigate for high treason and she was sent to the Tower of London where she was tried before jury of peers..She was beheaded four days later with the charges of adultery, incest and witchcraft..I really pity Anne Boelyn because she was just trying her best to make her husband happy by bearing a son but in the wrong way of course..The pressure that Henry put on her was unfair..He was cruel to her and intended to divorce her if she did not give him a son...She was executed for having affairs to six other men and one of them was his own brother..Anne Boelyn was known as The Doomed Queen..
