The Tudors (Part 6): The Last Three Wives of Henry VIII (with Anna Morris) | The Tudors: A Real Game of Thrones
🫢 Catherine Howard was accused of having an affair with Thomas Culpeper during her marriage to Henry VIII, and past relationships came back to haunt her.
📜 Adultery by a queen was considered treason, and despite her young age, Catherine was arrested, imprisoned, and ultimately sentenced to death.
🪓 In 1542, Catherine was beheaded at the Tower of London, just like her cousin Anne Boleyn before her.
👻 Legend has it that Catherine's ghost haunts Hampton Court Palace. It's said her spirit can be heard screaming through the gallery, a reflection of the night she broke free from her guards, pleading for mercy from Henry, who was at the palace during her arrest.
