"Katherine Parr, the sixth wife of Henry VIII, was a thoughtful, well-read lady, known at court for her unblemished reputation and her kind heart. Katherine had hoped to marry for love, but the aging king--more in need of a nurse than a wife--was drawn to her and Katherine could not refuse his proposal of marriage. Courtiers envious of the Queen's influence over Henry sought to destroy her with her interest in Lutheranism, a religion the king saw as a direct threat to his supremacy as head of the new Church of England."@en
"Henry VIII's fifth wife, Katherine Howard, was both foolish and unfaithful, and she paid for it with her life. Henry vowed that his sixth wife would be different, and she was. Katherine Parr was twice widowed and thirty-one years old. A thoughtful, well-read lady, she was known at court for her unblemished reputation and her kind heart. She had hoped to marry for love and had set her heart on Thomas Seymour, the dashing brother of Henry's third queen. But the aging king--more in need of a nurse than a wife--was drawn to her, and Katherine could not refuse his proposal of marriage."
