That was more of joke on my part, however.....if anyone can come up with an attractive foreign girl NOT proposed for King Henry VIII........
Yeah, but Brandon's not stupid either. He might hornswaggle his way into marrying Henry's sister. But he would never try to marry a potential wife for Henry. That way lies suicide...
Margaret died in 1530, so I seriously doubt that Charles will even give her a second look this trip.....
So, Dorothea or Hedwig?
What happens if she’s struck by lightning in full view of the king and the court?
She gets struck by lightning in full view of the king and the court and then dies.Wait, what?
Whoever has better fertility/health...

Hedwig has advantage of age, Henry can't wait long, he need to secure future of his dynasty.
I wonder how would Bona react if Hedwig is choosen-IOTL she wanted her oldest daughter Isabella (born 1519) to marry Dauphin but her plans failed. Now her step-daughter is going to be queen when her own daughter is not?
It's more fun to kill her with lightning.Are you referring to Anne Boleyn? If so, you're too late, I poisoned her with mushrooms......
Her parents whored out her sister to the King earlier. Anne didn't want to end up like that. Men in high positions could get away with a lot and using their daughters to warm the beds of the monarch was a great way to get ahead. The Duke of Norfolk did the same using Catherine Howard, deceiving the king into thinking she was a virgin. Turns out she, unlike Anne, actually DID turn out to cheat on him. The enormous, three hundred pound man with legs covered in sores using puss, who needed a crane to be taken upstairs. Anyways, the Duke was in a high enough position in the nobility to stay have and secure as his niece got the chop. And for Anne... Well, she wasn't submissive enough to be an acceptable queen without bringing some kids to the table. Katherine of Aragon was old with about ten miscarriages by the time of the annulment. Henry would have married someone, as otherwise the stability of England was at risk.And I thought the divorce was 100% Henry's fault with little outside prodding. I thought that was simply his means to get in Anne Boleyn's pants (to get a son).
Well... makes it somewhat difficult to feel sorry for her when she fell out of favor
