‘Over the years, Katherine Howard, Henry VIII\u2019s fifth wife, has been slandered as a \u2018juvenile delinquent\u2019, \u2018empty-headed wanton\u2019 and \u2018natural-born tart\u2019 who engaged in promiscuous liaisons prior to her marriage and committed adultery after her marriage to Henry VIII. This biography challenges these assumptions by drawing on seven years of research, demonstrating that Katherine\u2019s reputation is unfairly deserved. It offers new insights into her activities as queen as well as the nature of her relationships with Manox, Dereham and Culpeper. Katherine was bright, charming and beautiful, but it was her tragedy that her premarital liaisons \u2013 in a climate of distrust and fear of female sexuality \u2013 led to her ruin in 1542. Conor Byrne challenges Katherine\u2019s negative reputation and redeems her as Henry VIII\u2019s slandered queen.’<\/p>\n
