This week as apart of our reading Mele and I have been learning about Terrible Tudors. Together we have created a presentation about the Kings and Queens of England. Today we got the chance to present our DLO to the class. The person I found most interesting was King Henry VII ( Eight ) because it was very shocking to find out that he had 6 wives and he would divorce, behead or kill his own wives until he got a son. The reason he wanted a son was because he wanted to keep the Tudor line going. Once he had got his very own son which was Edward VI ( Six ), he sadly passed away at the age of 16 due to a disease called tuberculosis which is an infection on the lungs. In total he had 2 girls and 1 son. With his other wives he wasn't able to have children. The only wife that had survived was Catherine Parr ( Queen Consort of England ), this was also his last wife.
