Welcome to our series called "women who had to put up with Henry VIII's BS"!

Catherine of Aragon was destined for greatness long before she became Henry VIII’s first queen. This episode follows her from her powerful childhood in Spain to a tragic first marriage, years of political limbo, and finally her rise beside Henry...the man who adored her, needed her, and slowly became her undoing.

We trace the early cracks in their marriage, the pressure for an heir, and the moment a new woman at court threatens everything Catherine fought for.

This episode is part 1 and part 2 will drop one week from this episode's release.
