HENRY FITZROY

HENRY FITZROY, DUKE OF RICHMOND AND SOMERSET

c. 15 June 1519 – 23 July 1536

SON OF KING HENRY VIII OF ENGLAND

            Henry Fitzroy was the son of Elizabeth Blount and Henry VIII. Blount was lady-in-waiting to Queen Catherine of Aragon and mistress to the king.

            Fitzroy was born in 1519 and Henry VIII recognised him as his son, most likely to let it known that he was capable of having a son (he and Catherine only had a surviving daughter Mary).

            FitzRoy was made him Duke of Richmond in 1525 and later the Duke of Somerset, having two dukedoms was a great honour. Henry VIII, 34, was frustrated that he had no legitimate male heir. Catherine, 40 became resentful towards the honours given to FitzRoy.

            FitzRoy was raised as a prince in Yorkshire; Henry VIII was fond and was interested in his son’s upbringing. In 1529, he was made Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland and there was a plan to crown him King of Ireland. In 1532, Henry VIII visited Calais to meet with Francis I of France and took FitzRoy with him. FitzRoy moved into the French court until 1533, when he returned to England. Henry VIII was in the process of having his marriage to Catherine annulled, there were plans for FitzRoy to marry his half-sister Mary.

            In 1533, FitzRoy, 14, married Mary Howard (cousin to Catherine Howard and Anne Boleyn), the marriage wasn’t consummated.

            Henry VIII and Parliament were enacting the Second Succession Act, which would have allowed FitzRoy to become king.

            FitzRoy became ill and died at the age of 17 at St. James’s Palace. FitzRoy was placed into a straw-filled wagon, and the only two mourners followed it at a distance. He was first buried at Thetford Priory, where the members of the Howard family were buried. During the time of the dissolution of the monasteries, the Howard family moved the family remains to the Church of St Michael the Archangel, Framlingham, where it remains today.  

            Henry VIII died in 1547 and his legitimate son Edward VI became king until his death in 1553. When Mary Howard died in 1557, she was buried alongside FitzRoy.

Henry Fitzroy, Duke of Richmond and Somerset . By LUCAS HORENBOUT c.1533-4 . . ◼ Henry Fitzroy, Duke of Richmond and Somerset (1519-36), was the illegitimate son of Henry VIII by Elizabeth Blount, a lady-in-waiting to Katharine of Aragon. . ◼ The child was officially acknowledged by the King after the early deaths of the three sons born to the Queen. . ◼ Following his divorce from Katharine of Aragon & his subsequent marriage to Anne Boleyn, Henry VIII's attachment to Henry Fitzroy assumed a greater significance, particularly when his second wife also failed to produce a male heir. . ◼ Appointed Knight of the Garter in 1525 & made Duke of Richmond and Somerset in the same year, Henry Fitzroy was given several important positions, including that of Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. . ◼ His education was entrusted to the distinguished classical scholar Richard Croke, who had taught Greek to Henry VIII, & was extended by attendance at the court of Francis I in France for eleven months in 1532. . ◼ It appears that Henry VIII contemplated making Henry Fitzroy his heir, but whatever the King's intentions may have been, the plan was spoilt by Henry Fitzroy's premature death of tuberculosis at the age of 17. . ◼ It is possible that this miniature was painted at the time of Fitzroy's marriage in 1534 to Mary Howard, daughter of the third Duke of Norfolk, Treasurer of the Household & Earl Marshal. . ◼ The miniature is a typical work by Horenbout, whose style is detectable in the modelling of the features, the prominent shadows under the eyes & mouth, & the form of the inscription seen against a blue background. The sitter is vividly characterised in what is in essence an informal portrait, one of the first in British art, & a significant prototype for what was to prove the keynote of intimacy in the art form of the portrait miniature over successive centuries. The casual clothes, probably a nightcap & chemise, may be associated with his physical frailty. . Inscribed HENRY DVCK.OFF RICHEMÕD and ÆTATIS SVÆ.XV° . .

Intro | Anne and Henry FitzRoy |

Anne was walking down the corridor in the French gown she wore whilst in service to the Marquess with her long hair down. She had a book in her hand, something she would read later if she had the chance. She walked past a man but she couldn't help but recognize his face, she stood still as she though for a moment and she turned "My lord?" she asked as she stared at his back as he walked but as soon as she talked  he stopped and turned and she smiled at him "I have a feeling that i should know you."
