Tudor London


Jane Seymour, the daughter of Sir John Seymour, was a quiet and less spirited lady than her immediate predecessor. Henry and Jane were married on May in 1536. On June 4, Jane was acknowledged as Henry's wife. On October 12, 1537, Prince Edward was born. Henry was ecstatic with the birth of his son, but his wife Jane never recovered from giving birth. On October 24, 1537, Jane died from complications of childbirth. Jane is the only one of Henry's wives to share his grave. After Jane's death, Henry did not remarry for more than two years.

Jane Seymour was the thirth wive of Henry VIII. However Jane actually felt, we will never know. Henry's feelings were pretty clear though. Within 24 hours of Anne Boleyn's execution, Jane Seymour and Henry VIII were formally betrothed. Unlike Henry's previous two Queens, Jane never had a coronation. Perhaps the King was waiting to Jane to 'prove' herself by giving him a son.
