Queen Katherine Parr: Not Important Enough?

I love how much people dismiss Queen Kateryn Parr. There may be evidence that she WAS supposed to be Regent for Edward VI. See her signature AFTER Henry died. Credit: Elizabeth Norton She was apparently signing as “Kateryn, the quene regente KP”. The theory goes that she was indeed made Regent for her stepson, King Edward VI. Which would make sense with the use of her signature. It is believed…

Anyways, The Taming of the Queen is about being haunted and The Other Boleyn Girl is about fucked up familes. I would have little to no objections to the books because these two themes were portrayed out very well and very appealing to me. The problem comes with the whole historical fiction, which is dubiously annoying (Catherine Parr) to deeply teeth-gnashingly essay-long frustrating (Mary Boleyn). Another issue I have is when people (the author) don’t seem to understand why these two themes are so important in favor of other shit; glaring historical innaccuracies, exaggarated pedophilia, victim blaming, gratuitous sex, etc etc.

#movie tagline ‘tobg is about two sisters’ love for the king😩😔’ me: tobg is about ambition. and screwed up families. the inane boleyn dynamic #is centre key to tobg! stop making it all about henry! #them: taming of the queen is a doomed romance 😌 #me: its about a woman marrying a guy who terrorizes her life and nearly kills her. psychological drama at best. thriller at worst #phillipa gregory #the taming of the queen #the other boleyn girl #mary boleyn #catherine parr #katherine parr #kateryn parr

Alexandra Byrne designed this beautiful gown for the 1998 film Elizabeth, where it was worn by one of Elizabeth’s ladies in waiting.  

In 2000, it was worn in The Royal Diaries: Elizabeth I – Red Rose of the House of Tudor by Susan Sheridan as a character in the novel referred to as Jane the Bald, who in life was likely Jane Foole, the fool who served both Mary and Katherine Parr, and may have been featured in the painting The Family of Henry VIII.  The appearance of the costume in this production is the only time we are able to see the pattern on the blue skirt.

In 2003’s Henry VIII, the costume was seen again by a lady in waiting to Anne Boleyn before finally appearing in 2023’s Love At First Sight on a party guest.

Fantasy Guide to Regents and Regencies

A Regency is a period of time where another party rules of behalf of a monarch who is either too young, too ill or absent. A Regency can either be the monarch's own choice or a decision made for them on their behalf by a third part, usually government. Either way, a Regent is selected to act as temporary Head of State whilst the monarch is incapable of ruling.

Who can be a Regent?

A Regent is an important office, even though its a temporary one. Regencies of child monarchs generally either go to the Consort, though there are all sorts of reasons why this can be blocked. Sometimes governments and kingdoms are uncomfortable with foreign consorts with uncertain allegiances ruling the kingdom or sometimes the government just doesn't approve on the basis that they doubt the Consort's skill set. Other candidates for Regencies are nearly always family members such as uncles, aunts, cousins and even children of the monarch (especially if they are absent from the country or ill). But a Regent doesn't have to be a royal. They could just be a noble elected to the position (Sir William Marshall) or even one that siezes power for themselves (Richard of York) or even a council made up of Regents, headed by a Lord Protector.

Who makes a Regent?

As I mentioned before, monarchs can appoint the Regent that will replace them in certain cases. For instance, a monarch would chose the Regent if they were voluntarily leaving the country or they might designate a chosen Regent on their deathbed or just in case of emergency. But they wouldn't chose a Regent if they were ruled mentally incompetent. In those cases, the government would chose.

The Powers and Responsibilities of a Regent

A Regent is the acting head of state but they are not the monarch. They do not have the right to wear crowns or have a coronation and are not granted the hall pass of divine right. A Regent is referred to as their own title, say for example Duke of X, Regent of Y or Prince Regent. They are merely there to fill in for the monarch. A Regent would meet with the government, make decisions with the approval by government and sign offical documents. In cases of an absent monarch, a Regent may need the approval of the monarch themselves. Regents of child monarchs would usually include their charges in the country's running, either as spectator or student. A Regent, being temporary Head of State, would also have the responsibility of ensuring a natural cessation of their power to their monarch when their term is over. Some regents are better than others at handing over power.

Notable Regents of History

George IV, Richard III, Anne of Austria, Katheryn Parr, Richard of York, Margaret of York, Katherine of Aragon, Catherine de Medici, Louise of Savoy, Phillippe duc de Orléans, Edward Seymour Duke of Somerset, Sir William Marshall, John Duke of Bedford, Humphrey Duke of Gloucestershire, John Dudley Duke of Northumberland.

I tried reading up on this online and now even more confused. In the 1544 painting, "The Family of King Henry VIII" include a long dead Jane Seymour rather than his then wife Catherine Parr and what does it tell us about Catherine Parr's status at the time?

So I think @goodqueenaly might be better to ask than me, because she’s really good on Tudor and Stuart court stuff, but I do remember the painting in question and I have a theory about the Seymour/Parr question you raise. I think Jane is there primarily because she is the mother of Prince Edward, the one wife who gave Henry VIII the dynastic male heir that he had been wanting, and moreover was personally particularly congenial to Henry’s growing misogyny post-Katherine and Anne and so was somewhat idealized as a paragon of feminine modesty.

Whereas Parr was dangerously intelligent for Henry’s tastes. So the painter may have been trimming their political sails to appeal to Henry himself, the Catholic faction, or the Seymour brothers.

TUDOR WEEK 2022 DAY 4 FAVORITE TUDOR RELATED RELIC →  (1 OF 2) THE CHEQUERS RING Worn by Elizabeth I, the Chequers Ring most likely dates back to the 1570s. The ring’s hoop is mother-of-pearl with gold sheet with rubies. Atop the bezel is an E for Elizabeth (the stones on the E are white diamonds) and R for Regina (the R is made out of cobalt enamel). Beneath the bezel is the image of a phoenix (the Seymour family symbol).  The locket (the bezel with hinges) contains two portraits: one of Elizabeth (the portrait of the older woman with the ruby) and one of a younger woman (with a diamond). A lot of people assert that the portrait of the younger woman with the French Hood is Elizabeth’s mother, Anne Boleyn. However, it has been argued that the younger woman could also be Katherine Parr, Elizabeth’s stepmother. Evidence that supports the argument that the portrait of the younger woman is Katherine Parr is that the woman has red hair, when Anne Boleyn was famous for her dark hair. Furthermore, Katherine Parr married into the Seymour family upon being widowed in 1547, which could account for the phoenix on the back of the bezel.  Photos 1. Wiki Commons 2. and 3.

Meta Knights: Meta Knight, Axe Knight, Javelin Knight, Mace Knight, Trident Knight, Captain Vul, Sailor Waddle Dee, Blade Knight, Sword Knight

Queens from Six: Catalina (or Catherine) of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anna (or Anne) of Cleves, Katherine Howard & Catherine Parr

Submissions are still open!

Meta Knights:

they act like a rough and tumble crew but they care about each other sososomuch. esp meta knight he acts all Cool and Heartless and Lone Wolf etc etc but secretly he’s a huge softie who loves his crew so much. one time in one of the books iirc a random kid joined their crew and he was like “tch. whatever” and then the kid gets kidnapped and he immediately gets depressed and angst and goes to fight the strongest warrior in the galaxy bc he thought he wasn’t strong enough to protect his crew. in another one of those books he almost dies and ends up in a coma and the whole crew is worried sick about him. i love them all so much

this got deleted bc my phone hates me so i’m gonna be less detailed bc i don’t wanna rewrite the whole thing again but basically. they act tough but they all actually care about each other sosososmuch. meta knight esp. one time a random kid joined their crew and got kidnapped by pirates, he angsted over it then decided to summon the Stongest Fighter In The Galaxy to fight bc he wasn’t strong enough to protect his crew. one time he has a near-death experience and the whole crew is worried about him. i think vul cries at one point. these are both things that happened in the light novels btw, (@nyaagolor has a tl masterpost iirc if ur interested)

Queens from Six:

Honestly, they're not directly portrayed as found family within the musical (although I definitely think that theme is there) but a lot of fanmade content like fanfiction has them as such and I just really like their dynamic :)

Gotham Sirens! Six AU

Because what's better that six awesome ladies that deserved better ? Even more six awesome ladies that deserved better.

( Note for the ex-wives I'm talking about the fictional musical, not the real historic figures)

I've had this idea for forever, and I finally found every counter part:

Talia Al Ghul- Catherine of Aragon

Queens. Extremely Loyal. Love their children. Should have got out of the situation. Powerful Connections

Selina Kyle - Anne Boleyn

Just a party gal ;D ( it's actually one of the most complex and deep person out there but gets reduced as nothing more that the sexy girl)

Andrea Beaumont- Jane Seymour

Wish both were more in to the spotlight (pun, laugh,now thank you). Never got to see their son grow up :'I. Both were so much in love and just wanted a family.

Natalia Knight- Anne of Cleves

Got the better end of the stick. Classy. Sassy. Umboterd queen was to beautiful for the man to even look at. Rich AF.

Harleen Quinzel - Katherine Howard

Only used as a sexual object by men? Blamed for their actions even if they were forced into it ? Is still seen only as a sexual thing because it's "empowering" and not a fucking resoult of their trauma? Still demed child like and immature? You bet.

Pamela Isley - Catherine Parr

Girlboss. Couldn't be with the one she loved because of some stinky man. Indipendet but also really compassionate ( Yes Poison Ivy could simply take over the planet and kill humans in their sleep but she choose to be a cottage core lesbian, she is compassionate, or at least pitying)

Does this make Bruce Henry? Kinda. Will I apologize? No. Should I have named this "Bruce Wayne's Ex-Wives"? Yes, but it didn't sound that catchy and we are not here to talk about him.

I need someone to animate this please, it would be awesome. I need my pop group of comics anti- heroes. They become the family and support they never actually got.They do a tour and talk shit of Lex Luther together. Joker is gone in negative five seconds. They bring the kids to their concerts and organise concerts with the Birds of Prey. I need this group somewhere in the comics please. Lady Shiva is their bodyguard that absolutely doesn't wanna be there but is forced to, Onyx Adams founds it very funny , turns out Shado is a really good manager and Jade and Rose get (adopted) brought along for the ride.

[misscoolisback123]

I really like the fact that in the Broadway version of "Six! The Musical" When it came to the second to last song, they changed "our family" to "my family" for Jane Seymour because this implies that she left Henry, took their son and met a better guy. A guy that didn't care if she gave him sons or daughters but just as long as they were happy and healthy. Yes, she was the devoted one, but her song states that Henry didn't really care about her even though she was the one he truly loved. Someone on here created a post as to why he probably didn't love her. Even if she had lived, he would have still found other wives in order to gain sons. He did have mistresses as well. Then, as stated by Jane in the second to last song, she'll form a family band, become famous, and then soon fade into obscurity up until she meets up with five of the wives and they create a pop group that will include Katherine Parr as well. It's most likely that Henry would have only wanted his sons to be in their family band and not the daughters.
