47. She Got A Petty Revenge

In January 1536, King Henry and Queen Anne got word that Henry's ex-wife Catherine of Aragon had died. Their reaction was so disturbing, it's impossible to forget. The royal couple was so overjoyed at the news, the next day they even dressed up in jubilant yellow clothing to "celebrate" the macabre occasion. If they knew the truth of Catherine's end, though, they might have thought twice.

48. People Thought She Killed Her Rival

When Catherine of Aragon passed, doctors opened her body to find that her heart had turned completely black. This was bad news for Anne. Suddenly, the court began to whisper that Boleyn had poisoned the former queen just to get her out of the way. While we now know that Catherine had cancer of the heart, it did nothing to strengthen Anne's PR at the time. But by then, there were even darker problems at play.
