Mary Boleyn

Mary Boleyn was an English noblewoman in the early 16th century, known for her close relationship to King Henry VIII. She was the sister of Anne Boleyn, who later became Henry’s second Queen. Mary was originally married but was rumored to have had a romantic affair with the king before he married Anne. Her connection to the royal court made her a notable figure in Tudor history. Though less famous than her sister, Mary’s life reflected the complex politics and relationships of England’s royal inner circle during that era.
