Episode 5

Maybe marrying the King of England isn't all that great. For the wives of Henry VIII, it was a dangerous game. Of his six wives it would be Anne Boleyn whose death still sticks with us the most. Maybe because it caused a whole country to change its religion, or maybe because it is hard to know just how much of a role Anne played in her own sad story, but she is the wife that we still fixate on today. Kimberly and I take on the twisted and tragic story of Henry's second wife Anne Boleyn. Why would Henry risk everything to be with her, to only a few short years later have her beheaded. Join us for the story of Anne Boleyn.
