The Other Boleyn Girl Chapter 16 Summary

How It All Goes Down

Winter 1526

  • Henry neglects and ignores Katherine, pretty much ghosting her in front of the entire court.
  • At the end of January, a joust is held.
  • But Henry is too chicken to ride. "What if I die?" (16.36), he says. Mary gets him some cheese to go with his whine, and she reminds him that their son, Henry, "is the very picture" (16.41) of the king.
