youngest wife CH9

Katherine, the youngest and poorest of Henry VIII's six wives, had the least education despite growing up in wealth and having access to books. Her short life ended in execution. Even though Katherine grew up in a wealthy environment, living with her step-grandmother and being provided with books, Katherine was the least educated out of all six wives. But it makes sense, as she was the youngest, the poorest wife, and lived the shortest life, as she was executed at her young age.
