Hi
Yes i heard this also. In the same program wich also was showed here in
Denmark, he told us that Henry complainted of her flat hanging breasts.
Those were the words, sorry ladies.......... He could not get any lust for
her att all............

It was said that Henry VIII had problems with Anne's Germanic body shape
and
was heard to once comment that her form was that of a whore. It seems he
preferred the small breasted, virginal looking body with his women. This
was
from a BBC program on Henry.

Interesting--I've always heard from "Them" that it was sort of the other
way around; H8 got the impression of a nicely rounded woman from Holbein's
painting, then found himself with a thin, non-curvy woman... at which
point he supposedly got mad at Holbein and fired him. Has anyone else
heard this version? The other version does make sense, based on the
portraits of his other wives (except CofA).
