Anne Boleyn conspiracy theory discussed by expert<\/h3>\n

Henry VIII was the King of England for almost 40 years before his death in 1547.<\/p>\n

In that time he married six different women, treating many of them with utter contempt, and even sending a few to the gallows.<\/p>\n

Of those wives, one has become more famous than the other, perhaps because of the extraordinary events that marked her short life.<\/p>\n

Anne Boleyn made Henry wait seven years before agreeing to marry him, although it would be a fatal decision for he would order her beheading just a few years after they tied the knot.<\/p>\n

Records and accounts vary, but some historians have suggested that the King was heavily influenced into making the decision \u2014 and perhaps wasn’t even in control of what happened to the Queen.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Anne was accused of treason in 1536, just three years into her reign.<\/p>\n

By this time, Henry was already courting his next wife, Jane Seymour, yet Anne was accused of having sexual relationships with no less than five royal courtiers, including her brother, George Boleyn (Lord Rochford), and the king’s close friend, Sir Henry Norris.<\/p>\n

The official indictments stated that she had not only slept with these men but also conspired to murder her husband.<\/p>\n

Henry’s later behaviour led many to conclude that he alone was responsible for her death, but new interpretations have focused attention on one of his closest advisers, Thomas Cromwell.<\/p>\n

Anne and Thomas were known not to see eye-to-eye, disagreeing on matters of state and religion.<\/p>\n
