Interesting. So what other effects might come from Henry VIII and Catherine having a son as late as 1528?
Basically just a lot of Henry feeling awkward about the situation and Catherine feeling very smug, but also being gracious.

Hmm true perhaps he could marry Maria of Portugal then?My take on Anne (with the 1528 birth) is that the woman will feel like she's been made to play the fool; her pride will not let her come back to Henry after Catherine's death in 1530. The pressure will be on Henry to make a continental match rather than an English commoner - and, since he doesn't have the reputation he had (executing Anne, Jane dying in childbirth), it shouldn't be as hard to final a willing fellow monarch - perhaps doing an 'exchange' with his daughter Mary going to the Continent?
Perhaps he will tell his wife sooner that he and Anne were precontracted; in this situation, they won't have to deny it....
Once they do it (admit to a precontract), they're kinda stuck with each other.
Hmm interesting a shock marriage to Percy ?
Aha indeed, do you think Henry would sell Anne off to Percy then to avoid her?
If Percy and Anne end up tougther would he still squander his eastes?Henry VIII lost Anne Boleyn when she learned he was still schtuping his wife. She might go after Percy to prove she didn't need Henry to make a good marriage (and that she could do better than her sister Mary); Henry won't have to avoid Anne - she wants nothing to do with the King after the birth of Henry Jr in 1528. She will probably spit fire at Henry VIII whenever she sees him.
He would be less bitter if he was in love with Anne and got her. So maybe the bitter squandering won't happenPerhaps perhaps nit
True Anne would probley have Northumberland shape up be a man. Since she failed at being the kings mistress I don't think the earl and countess would be welcome at court cutting exspesess significantly. While Anne would want cultured household she probley first want to get rid of the debt the Percy owed to the crown so Henry can't have any hold over her. Hoplfuly her husbands warden of the east March payments are 15th century sized and comes frequently. There's probley going to be no Church of England so no pilgramage of grace so the Percy's aren't going to welcomed back at court unless the earl wins a second flooden field. Without access to court Anne is going to look for a wife for her son Lincolnshire and northward and she has to be an heiress if we're going for the Anne is straighting up the Percy's finances angle. Let's say this son is born in 1530. What would be a good heiress or someone who could be an heiress if a few people died in the north? Or if Church of England does happen and the earl crushes a pilgramage of grace or he wins a second flooden and the Percy's are welcomed back at court what is a good heiress in general for Anne's son?Do we really think Anne would LET him squander HER estates? She'll probably get him out of debt, pop out a son (although her pregnancy pattern does indicate she may have been Rh negative, which means only the first pregnancy for her), and he'll live longer with a woman who at least loves his title enough to take care of him.
