Henry VIII's great matter, his quest for an annulment of his marriage to Catherine of Aragon, caused him to break with Rome and was the beginning of the English Reformation. However, Henry chose to marry Catherine and their marriage was happy for many years.
In this talk, Claire Ridgway explores how they came to be married, the early years of their marriage, and how and when it began to go wrong.
