Public Domain

Catherine Parr was an English noblewoman who had been married twice before meeting the king. She was also childhood friends with Queen Mary I and married the king when she was 31 years old, making her the king’s sixth and last wife. Interestingly, her mother was lady-in-waiting to the king’s first wife, so she named her daughter after Catherine of Aragon.
