Life in the UK Test 20
Was Catherine Parr, the sixth wife of Henry VIII, a cousin of Anne Boleyn?
Correct Answer: False
False. Catherine Parr was not a cousin of Anne Boleyn.
It was Catherine Howard (Henry's fifth wife) who was a cousin of Anne Boleyn — both were from the Howard family.
Catherine Parr (Henry's sixth wife) came from a different family and survived Henry — she was his last wife and helped reconcile him with his daughters Mary and Elizabeth.
