History portrays Edward VI as the feeble and ultimately doomed son of Henry VIII, but the truth is so much darker than that. Far from a weakling, even as a boy, Edward proved nearly as twisted as his rotund father—and his gruesome end was likely a blessing for England.

He was very ill and challenged. Too young to be labeled a tyrant! Just a boy, !!!!!!
A Trump history lesson ?
I cant begin to go through all the historical inaccuracies, my A level history tutor, the late Mr (kevin) Jolly, a misnomer if there was ever one, would be rolling in his grave.
Interest in astrology and magic was perfectly normal, and common at the time. Lots of other factual mistakes.
Pathetic – no research lazy inaccuracy
What a load of rubbish
maybe poison was at play as you say
Horrid clickbait. Don't bother.
One aspect of Edward's life that most agree on is that Edward was a scholar fluent in many languages including Latin & Greek. He shared his academic excellence with his sister Elizabeth. It seems odd that Edward's academic excellence was not mentioned.
👏👍😄😊 u did an awesome job 👍👍👍 KEEP UP THE GOOD WORKS
Basically, King Joffrey
Sloppy work sadly. Starting with showing a portrait of Ann Boleyn and saying it was Jane Seymour, that Catherine of Aragon was beheaded and onwards. Fundamental errors.
Wow fairy story
I often wonder if King Henry VIII was reincarnated as Kim Jong Un.
He may well have been spoiled in some ways but surely tormented too.Over protected,constantly being intensely educated from an early age. Not much fun in his short ,and I think,sad life!
Utter bloody rubbish one of the worst historical documentories that I have ever seen.
Perhaps you should read more academic works on the subject!
It's not at all odd that Edward should have everything an exact duplicate of his father's.
It was common practice, even in their queens courts.
Daughters and favorite concubines wore exact duplicates of what the queen wore, minus crown.
Appallingly inaccurate.
🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
LOL SO INACCURATE!!! 😂😂
I don't get why anyone would take this royal crap seriously. Bogus nonsense.
Written by AI?
Who the hell wrote this ill-informed, uneducated crap? BTW a 6 yr old was not considered an adult. Those unfortunate dhicldren who wound up on a throne – ALWAYS had adult advisors who ruled through the child. A 6 year old know nothing. They barely know how to add and subtract, they can barely read, BUT they are to fully understand internatal issues? Politis? Wars? Know fully geography? Not watching it to the end.
Divorced and beheaded their MUMS???? … no divorced Catherine of Aragon and beheaded Anne
Edward VI had the sense not to want either of his terrible sisters to succeed him. His untimely death led to succession by two murderous tyrants and eventually a horrible civil war and an even more tyrannical rule by Oliver Cromwell. How could it possibly have been a good thing?
When youtalk aboutenglish history get it right ,not a ballsup
Uh only one wife had been beheaded up to Edward’s reign .
Bloody Mary but to the Catholics it was Bloody Bess ! From historical accounts Bess comes out a lot better . As far as denomination choices Elizabeth maintained that she did not have a right to look into men’s souls . Fast forward to 2nd decade Century 21 , I was called a Protestant heretic in a chat room by a Catholic , Religious fanaticism has not gone away and it is heating up in the United States
I've learned more accurate history from the comments than the video.🤣🤣🤣🤣
I have never heard any of this said about Edward before. It seems so over the top. I think it is pretty inaccurate.
Where on Earth did you get this rubbish from not in any legitimate history books that's for sure. A lot of it is just fantasy.
Edward VI inherited a defective PPOX gene from his deranged father. When Edward came down with the measles his health took a turn for the worse, and once triggered the cures of the day ironically ensured his health would decline.
A very flawed and not accurate video. 🙄
That's probably what's wrong with Prince Harry.. beating women and horses and piss poor judgment. He could be the poster child for the side effects of a thousand years of inbreeding.
Well, what do you expect from this AI trash.. God help us all if this is allowed to continue by world governments, and of course, the biggest culprit of them all, GOOGLE!!
Absolutely no evidence here of him being a brat or of having 'dark' side.
He didn't ask for the clothes or forks!
Lady Jane Grey was brought up with Edward. They were close. Mary offered to spare her if she converted to Catholicism… She died a protestant martyr.
Your opinion is absolute crap. He was a genuine Christian teenager who promoted the reformation in England. Read unbiased history books!
Hey- not so much of the rotund please
Henry VII did not behead his eldest daughter (Mary’s) mother. Henry had her, Katherine of Aragon banished from court to live the rest of her life in seclusion, being moved from castle to castle, where she died at Kimbolton Castle with her head attached.
This is absolute tripe.
It was common for royal children to have their own households even as toddlers. They usually didn’t live with their parents.
WTF are you talking about? This has so many holes, so many inaccuracies, it's like Swiss cheese! THE worst "historical" posting I think I've ever seen!!! Don't quit your day job!
Once again, I come across a content creator who purposely peppers inaccuracies in their video in order to generate replies correcting them. This disgusting trolling seems to be a growing trend throughout You Tube.
Henry VIII did not “invent” a new religion; he uncoupled the English church from the authority of Rome but it remained largely unchanged in doctrine and liturgy from the Church of Rome. And he didn’t declare himself “Defender of the Faith”, that was bestowed on him by the Pope before the break with Rome.
captions keep saying henry vii
I was mesmerized by this video. I have never see or heard such crap; and it is badly narrated, to boot! Anyone who has an interest in British, especially Tudor, history should watch David Starkey's programs, not shite like this.
