Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss Catherine of Aragon (1485-1536), the youngest child of the newly dominant Spanish rulers Ferdinand and Isabella. When she was 3, her parents contracted her to marry Arthur, Prince of Wales, the heir to the Tudor king Henry VII in order to strengthen Spain's alliances, since Henry's kingdom was a longstanding trade partner and an enemy of Spain's greatest enemy, France. For the next decade Catherine had the best humanist education available, preparing her for her expected life as queen and drawing inspiration from her warrior mother. She arrived in London to be married when she was 15 but within a few months she was widowed, her situation uncertain and left relatively impoverished for someone of her status. Rather than return home, Catherine stayed and married her late husband's brother, Henry VIII. In her view and that of many around her, she was an exemplary queen and, even after Henry VIII had arranged the annulment of their marriage for the chance of a male heir with Anne Boleyn, Catherine continued to consider herself his only queen.With Lucy Wooding Langford Fellow and Tutor in History at Lincoln College, University of Oxford and Professor of Early Modern History at Oxford Maria Hayward Professor of Early Modern History at the University of SouthamptonAnd Gonzalo Velasco Berenguer Lecturer in Global Medieval and Early Modern History at the University of BristolProducer: Simon Tillotson In Our Time is a BBC Studios Audio ProductionReading list:Michelle Beer, Queenship at the Renaissance Courts of Britain: Catherine of Aragon and Margaret Tudor, 1503-1533 (Royal Historical Society, 2018)G.

What if Catherine of Aragon had stepped aside and entered a nunnery? Could it have saved her daughter Mary's legitimacy? Would Anne Boleyn have had a son? And most importantly—would England have remained Catholic?   In this video, we explore a fascinating Tudor ‘What If'—how history might have changed if Catherine had accepted Henry VIII's demands. Would the Reformation still have happened? Would Henry have still married six wives? And what about the dissolution of the monasteries?   Thank you to Charliebeth for this thought-provoking question!    #TudorHistory #CatherineOfAragon #HenryVIII #AnneBoleyn #WhatIfHistory #AlternateHistory #EnglishReformation #RoyalHistory #16thCentury #HistoryDebate 

Did Catherine of Aragon really ride into battle at Flodden, dressed in armour, leading her troops to victory?    It's a thrilling image—one even some 16th-century sources suggest! But the truth? Catherine wasn't at Flodden… yet her role in England's victory was still crucial.   As regent in Henry VIII's absence, she was no passive queen. She rallied troops, arranged for supplies, and even wanted to send Henry a gruesome trophy—King James IV's body!   So, was she a warrior queen in the traditional sense? Or does her real power lie in her sharp political mind and strong leadership? Let's uncover the truth behind the myth! Was Catherine England's greatest warrior queen?    #TudorHistory #CatherineOfAragon #Flodden #WarriorQueen #HenryVIII #OnThisDay #TudorTrivia #HistoryRevealed

When we think of Catherine of Aragon, we think of a pious and dignified queen—but did you know that, before she even married Henry VIII, she was at the centre of a royal scandal? - Her confessor, Fray Diego Fernández, became more than just her spiritual advisor. - His influence over her raised eyebrows, sparked gossip, and even angered kings. - Was Catherine blindly loyal, or was there more to their relationship than meets the eye? This is a fascinating and rarely told chapter in Catherine's life—one that shaped her future in the treacherous world of Tudor politics. Listen now to uncover the full story! #TudorHistory #CatherineOfAragon #HenryVIII #Scandal #HistoryMystery #OnThisDay #TudorSecrets

Did King Henry VIII's carol “Green Groweth the Holly” carry a hidden message of love for Catherine of Aragon? Or was it simply a poetic exercise?   That's the question I'm answering in my new Sunday Quick Q&A!   This beautiful Tudor-era song is filled with symbolism—holly and ivy, fidelity and love—but who was it really for? Published in 1522, the lyrics promise devotion, but by then, Henry and Catherine's marriage was already strained. Could it have been written earlier, during their fairytale romance? Or was it inspired by someone else entirely?   Join me as we unravel the mystery of this royal composition and explore its possible meanings. Let me know your thoughts—was this a tribute to Catherine, or does it hold another secret?   Link to video of the song being sung - https://youtu.be/eepnixfObTM   #TudorQandA #HenryVIII #CatherineOfAragon #GreenGrowethTheHolly #TudorHistory #OnThisDay

Catherine of Aragon's deep faith shaped many aspects of her life, including her practice of fasting. But could her religious devotion have impacted her ability to carry healthy pregnancies to term?

When Henry VIII wanted a divorce from Catherine of Aragon, he needed to prove that she was not a virgin when they wed. One woman was key to proving this: Catalina of Motril, Catherine's enslaved servant who was always present in the royal bedroom. Before the divorce, though, what was Catalina's experience like in the heart of the Tudor court? What would it have been like for her, as a person of colour in Tudor England? And did Henry's lawyers ever track her down? Joining Kate today is historian and author Lauren Johnson, to help us get to know Catalina's remarkable story better. This episode was edited and produced by Stuart Beckwith.

The Catholic Church lost its grip on England largely thanks to a woman who refused to quietly let her husband trade her in for a younger model. Catherine of Aragon's impact on Europe has lasted for centuries, and it all began with a single crime: bigamy.

An ending no one could have predicted. In this episode we pick up with Catherine preparing for the fight of her life to defend, not only the sanctity of her marriage, but to protect her adoptive country from the "Scandal of Christendom". We see this Tudor tragedy unfold through her eyes in this dramatic and harrowing conclusion to the incredible life of Catherine of Aragon, Queen of England.Book used for this series is Catherine of Aragon: Henry's Spanish Queen by Giles Tremlett

In part one, Catherine's once ideal marriage to Henry VIII started to sour when she didn't provide a son to inherit the throne. And now that he has a younger girlfriend, Henry is ready to do whatever it takes to replace and erase Catherine – and make Anne his new queen. But two decades on the throne have turned Catherine into a formidable opponent. And she's determined to hold on to her crown – no matter how ugly the fight gets.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We mostly remember Henry VIII's six wives because of their fate at the hands of history's most notorious ex. But there's so much more to them than divorce, death and beheadings. Henry's first wife, Catherine of Aragon, was a Spanish princess who grew up believing that being Queen of England was her destiny and God-given right. But getting–and staying–on the throne turns out to be a lot more complicated than she thought. When she isn't able to have a healthy son and heir to the throne, Henry decides her time is up. But Catherine refuses to back down, even when someone new arrives and threatens her place on the throne.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

However, Henry chose to marry Catherine and their marriage was happy for many years.

Today's Tudor quote is taken from a letter Queen Catherine of Aragon wrote to her husband, King Henry VIII, while she was Regent of England and he was in France. Historian and author Claire Ridgway shares Catherine's good news to Henry.

Self-described "book detective" and literary scholar at Harvard University, Vanessa Braganza has recently uncovered what she believes to be a long-overlooked example of defiance by the first wife of King Henry VIII.
