16 Strange Facts About Henry VIII You Definitely Didn’t Learn in History Class #16 Henry's Bloody Nature May Have Been Due to Genetic Insanity Ever wondered why Henry VIII killed so many people (wives, old friends, etc.)? Various theories have been proposed (syphilis, brain injuries), but it might come down to hereditary psychiatric problems in the family. His paternal great-grandmother, Catherine of Valois, Princess of France, was the daughter of the famously insane King Charles VI; her family's psychiatric issues seem to have been passed down through the generations to multiple British monarchs, ranging from Henry VIII to George III and onward. But the possibilities for Henry's issues - and those of his family members - are endless, though constant intermarriage with cousins that also had mental problems probably wasn't a great idea.
16 Strange Facts About Henry VIII You Definitely Didn’t Learn in History Class #15 He Was the First English King to Use the Title of 'Majesty' Ever the egomaniac, Henry decided that the traditional title of "Grace" or "Highness" wasn't good enough for him, since he reigned "by the grace of God." He manipulated a "royal cult," with the king as the divine leader of the country, a sovereign in every way, and adopted the title of "Majesty" accordingly. By 1520, foreign ambassadors had already started addressing the King of England as "Your Majesty." The word "majesty" had additional regal connotations. It derived from the Latin word "maiestas," evocative of magnificence and near-divine glory hearkening back to ancient ages
16 Strange Facts About Henry VIII You Definitely Didn’t Learn in History Class #14 Henry's Younger Sister Was a Rebel for Love Henry's other sister, Mary, was equally troublesome in the marriage department. He first married her to the elderly King Louis XII of France, but that monarch kicked the bucket not long after. Resigned to her fate, Mary had once extracted a promise from Henry that, if she was ever widowed, her next match would be a man of her own choosing. Bad idea: she chose to wed Henry's commoner BFF, Charles Brandon. The king was furious that Mary would marry against his will (let's face it: control freak Henry had no intention of keeping his promise) and that her second wedding took away the opportunity for Henry to make alliances using his sister. But Mary and Brandon stayed married until her death, and their descendants included Lady Jane Grey, the infamous "Nine Days' Queen."
