@claireridgway.bsky.social"Henry VIII didn't divorce Catherine of Aragon or Anne of Cleves. Their marriages were annulled."
You've probably seen that correction.
But is "divorce" really historically inaccurate?
I look at the evidence in my latest YouTube video.

At Greenwich Palace a baby girl was born
Adored by Mother #AnneBoleyn though something of a disappointment initially for her Father #HenryVIII
This child would become one of the greatest English Monarchs of all time
