Answer 10

Two.

Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded,survived.

Answer 11

Henry's second wife was called Anne Boleyn and she was beheaded for witchcraft, having adulterous relationships with five other men, for incest with her brother and for injuring the King and conspiring to kill him;  these charges were almost certainly fabricated.   She died on 19th May, 1536.

Katherine Howard was the king's fifth wife and the daughter of Anne's uncle.   She was arrested for treason by virtue of being engaged at the time of her wedding and her conduct before fer marriage.   She died on 13th Feb, 1532.

Answer 12

Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard, second or third cousins to one another were beheaded.

Katherine of Aragon was discarded by Henry, claiming their marraige had been illegal due to her having been married to his older brother for a few months before he died.

Jane Seymour died a few days after giving birth to Henry's only legitimate son.

Anne of Cleves' marriage with Henry was annulled on the grounds of never being consumated. He didn't like her for a spouse, but they remained on good terms.

Catherine Parr outlived Henry, and eventually died giving birth to her first child by the fourth husband, a daughter.

Obviously, being a wife of Henry VIII had put some kind of a jinx on women who loved him or at least agreed to be his wife.
