The Other Boleyn Girl Resources

Philippa Gregory has more books in her Tudor series than Henry had wives.

If the books aren't enough for you, there's plenty of true history that proves truth is stranger than fiction.

The film adaptation of The Other Boleyn Girl features Scarlett Johansson, Natalie Portman, and a whole host of British hunks who are much more popular today than they were when the movie first came out in 2008.

Before Scarlett and Natalie jumped on the wagon, the BBC adapted The Other Boleyn Girl for TV.

If you read one line in one interview all year make it this one: "No woman deserves to be beheaded for upsetting her husband."

In this interview, Gregory reveals what happens to Mary and Catherine as the Tudor throne changes hands more times than the outfit on a department store mannequin.

Everyone is Hollywood-sexy in the studio adaptation of The Other Boleyn Girl. Who wouldn't want to be Henry's mistress if the king looked like that?

Dance is dramatic, even more so when you can see it. The Tudors recreated Anne and Henry dancing the Volte, which is alluded to in the novel.

We'll never know what Anne Boleyn really sounded like, so we'll assume this audiobook captures her voice perfectly.

Henry's court with Katherine was a collaboration between England and Spain. England and Spain collaborate again in this interview with Philippa Gregory to promote the Spanish editions of her novels.

If you're wondering why Mary thinks Hever, which is HUGE, is like a tiny farmhouse, compare it to Windsor castle, which would take a few months to explore on foot.

This is the portrait Henry would likely use on Tinder. Do you want that beard rubbing on your face in a steamy makeout sesh?

Katherine of Aragon was such a devout Catholic, she wore a hair shirt to remind her of her faith. It may have looked like this. It's so natural, we're surprised it hasn't come back in style. Maybe you can find it in Portland?
