Description of Catherine of Aragon (Queen of England):

Catherine is a direct descendant of the Spanish royal line, the youngest daughter of Queen Isabella of Castille and King Ferdinand of Aragon. Crowned in 1509 before her marriage to Henry was annulled in 1533, she was a charitable and popular queen, a pious Catholic, and a devoted mother and wife. While she was cheated on by her husband many times, his infidelities even resulting in a son by her maid Bessie Blount, she never called him out on it and confides to her maids that he blames her for being unable to produce a son.
