Her rescuer was Henry, Arthur's young brother. In contrast to Katherine's petite darkness, Henry was tall, fair and fiery as is red hair. When he ascended the thrown as King Henry VIII, he promptly married Katherine-- and they were to repent in leisure. As her inability to provide Henry with a son slowly disintegrated their marriage, Katherine was sustained only by her unbreakable will and her abiding faith..." Good Reads
