I have to agree with you on 1 point.If I were in Katherine's situation I would have taken my child and left as well.Like Anne she also didn't want her child to carry the name of Bastard.Afterall,Katherine had to much pride for that,nevermind she came from a Royal background and a devoted Cathalic she would have never agreed to a divorce .Wanting Mary to remain in England to inheret the thrown was her 1 true wish.Some may think she was poisoned by Anne Boleyn but that was not the case at all.Katherine was already ill lwhen she left Hampton Court with Uterine Cancer and was dying.People give Anne Boleyn a bad rap for all that happened to Katherine but the reality was Henry and Katherine were already on the out's long before Anne arrived at court.Henry's obsession with Anne was well known,being she was quite beautiful and intellegent.Henry viewed her as the perfect woman and longed for her for many years before winning her heart.Like all men of that time and some of in our own,women were blamed primarily for a man's lust for her reguardless of what her involvement was. Anne rejected Henry not because she longed for the thrown of England and to be Queen,but not loving Henry she had hoped he would eventually lose interest in her and move on.But that was not to be.It took Henry a total of 5 years to win her affection and like many men promised her the moon and stars.Wrote peoms and love letter' .I would submize to say any woman then or now would have been seduced by such a cunning King.We all know that Henry was a lustful King wanting his own way and when Anne refused him it made him want her all the more.Anne's love and devotion for the King before and after their marriage has all but been proved.God makes plan's of his own and sacrifices sometime's must be made for the greater good of mankind.Afterall, Anne's prophecy that her daughter would seceed to the Thrown came to pass."ELIZABETH"
