July 11 - The Pope's had enough of Henry VIII!




Tudor History with Claire Ridgway show

Summary: There's only so much a pope can take from a misbehaving king, isn't there? And Pope Clement VII had had enough of Henry VIII by 11th July 1533.   But how had this English king gone from being lauded as Defender of the Faith to being threatened with excommunication? What had he done to upset the Pope?   In today's "on this day in Tudor history" talk, Claire Ridgway, author of "On This Day in Tudor History", gives details on Henry VIII's misbehaviour, the ultimatum that the pope gave Henry, and what happened next.   You can see this podcast as a video at the following link: https://youtu.be/WepPlD4RW60   You can find Claire at: https://www.theanneboleynfiles.com  https://www.tudorsociety.com https://www.facebook.com/theanneboleynfiles/ https://www.facebook.com/tudorsociety/ https://twitter.com/AnneBoleynFiles  https://twitter.com/thetudorsociety  https://www.instagram.com/tudor.society/  https://www.instagram.com/anneboleynfiles/
