his relationship with his 4th wife, Anne of Cleves, was rather like 50s television

Anne was repelled by him in the bed chamber, should could not get past his weight and ulcerated leg. And she was not exactly a Victoria Secrets model herself. But she fared better than his other wives getting a clean divorce and a lifetime pension.

Yeah, I read that Henry didn’t find her attractive, or vice-versa. At that point in his life, I certainly wouldn’t have wanted him anywhere near me! It was a pretty good deal for her, in the end, settling in as a distantly-civil acquaintance with a paycheck.
