Did Anne Actually say this? and was it before or after she was married to Henry? 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

She did actually say this, and it was before she married Henry since she was already pregnant before they got married. Do you find this valuable?

"She did actually say this, and it was before she married Henry since she was already pregnant before they got married."
Yes, she said these words, and she said them to Thomas Wyatt too! But i think the period that her and Henry married is still debatable, as well as that the time when Elizabeth was conceived, correct me if i'm mistaken though, she was definitely pregnant when she was coronated!

Obviously no one alive was still there to find out but most people believe Elizabeth was concieved before they were married, which forced Henry to marry her in the first part, to have his heir in wedlock, though no one knows where or when the wedding took place. Do you find this valuable?

They were promised to each other which is why Anne slept with Henry in the first place. Anne had difficulty keeping her secret marriage secret which lead to her "hankering for apples" remark.

Oh BTW, while we're on the topic of "hankering", when I was pregnant it wasn't apples but hot fudge sundaes. Apples were a bit too healthy for me! Any interesting cravings out there?

I've not experienced pregnancy yet, but my mother reported a craving for gas station hamburgers. It's a wonder I came out as normal as I am! Do you find this valuable?

I`ve never been pregnant,but my mother told me she had some shocking cravings, that weren`t even food related. One was the smell of petrol. Do you find this valuable?

With my first, I was very ill...lost 30lbs in 3 months so when I did start to eat again, I craved mashed potatoes and canned spaghetti. Meat or the smell of meat made me sick. The second one went much better and funnily enough I craved apples and lettuce. Ellie, I have always like the smell of petrol (gas) ....even when not preggers. Just one of those weird things about me. LOL Do you find this valuable?

Hmmm thankyou! :) But I often wonder If Anne and Henry really did have se before they married.. I mean Anne was a very smart woman, surely should wouldnt have given in so close to getting married? and noone really knows when in january they married, I even heard they could have been married in Dec 1532.. which supports Elizabeths birthdate.. But if they were married in Jan, Elizabeth could have been concieved after they married as there are reports Elizabeth was slightly premature.. This is just a theroy of mine, as I find it hard to believe that a woman as intelligent as Anne would not wait till marriage.. Anyone feel this way?
