Catherine Parr - The Real Firebrand

Catherine Parr is remembered as Henry VIII’s 6th and final wife, the one who survived the murderous monarch. But while earlier wives, who ended their Queenship more tragically are glamorized, Catherine is often hidden in the background. The new film Firebrand tells the harrowing tale of an argument with the King, which nearly landed Catherine on the block and a 7th wife in Henry’s bed. And the musical 6 celebrates Parr as an early feminist and laments her being forced to choose Henry over the real love of her life, Thomas Seymour. But it leaves out Catherine’s dramatic life before becoming Queen and the fact that Seymour turned out to be an absolute scoundrel! Let’s examine the whole life of wife #6, Catherine Parr. We’ll learn what became of her, the baby she died for, and how her grave was desecrated centuries after her tragic death. Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!
