| 1546 | May 24 - Catherine's friend, the reformer Anne Askew, is arrested and horribly tortured in the Tower of London. There is also, supposedly, enough 'evidence' against the Queen to issue a warrant for her arrest. The warrant is accidentally dropped; someone loyal to the Queen sees it and quickly informs her of it. This incident is well-documented. |

| 1547 to 1548 | Princess Elizabeth (aged 14) lives with the former Queen Catherine--now Catherine Parr Seymour--and her new husband at Sudeley Castle. Elizabeth eventually leaves under a cloud, due to the scandal of being pursued by her stepmother's husband, Thomas Seymour |
| 1548 | August 30 - Catherine Seymour's daughter Mary is born. Seven months later, little Mary is orphaned after her father Thomas Seymour is executed during the reign of his nephew Edward VI. Facts are blurry as to when and where little Mary Seymour died. However it is documented that Kate Parr's close friend Catherine Brandon (the former Catherine Willoughby), who has recently been widowed, takes charge of Mary and nurses her until Mary's death |
| 1548 | September 5 - Catherine Parr Seymour dies of puerperal fever, aged 36 She is the only spouse among King Henry's six wives to be considered 'legitimately married' to him, and to also outlive him. Katherine is buried, with Lady Jane Grey as chief mourner, in the chapel at Sudeley Castle. The tomb can still be visited today. |
