For the Love of Anne

For the Love of Anne

In 1525, a young gentlewoman returned from France to take up a position as maid of honour to Queen Katherine of Aragon.

There she met a young page in the household of Cardinal Wolsey. His name was Lord Henry Percy, heir to the illustrious earldom of Northumberland.

The couple fell in love and planned to marry and for a little while they were happy, believing they could build a future together.

But one powerful man had other ideas.

The young gentlewoman was Anne Boleyn. This is her story.
