Natalya Sydney: Of course there were divorces before Henry VIII. Take the Romans, for example. There were different types of marriage. Some made divorces easy. Others made divorces very complicated.
Marti Declue: To my knowledge, Henry started the whole divorce thing. There were cases beforehand of people being declared 'not married' and the marriage being annulled; but Henry was the first to become divorced in the modern sense. There were 'divorces' in some ancient civilizations and the Celts had a very easy and simple divorce procedure. But in Christian tradition, Henry started things off.
Rodolfo Merel: jst trie nd stp me
Rebeca Mckin: I've been watching the Crown on Netflix about the early reign of Queen Elizabeth. From the moment she becomes queen it gets hammered into her that she is no longer an individual that she is the queen.Her grandmother upon her ascension tells her not to mourn just the loss of her father, but to mourn the loss of El! izabeth Windsor, for Elizabeth Regina must kill Elizabeth Windsor.Though she wants to maintain her married name (Montblatten) and her former residence, Parliment insists that all children born to her and her successors bear the name Windsor, and mandate Buckingham Palace as her residence. /Winston Churchill admonishes her at one point not to let them see Elizabeth Windsor, but only Queen Elizabeth and she is later advised when she wants to name her own private secretary, rather than the one who would arrive at the position through seniority, that would portend poorly for her, likening it to the abdication by her uncle King Edward. So is that just a plot device for the show or is the English monarchy traditional devoid of the individual personality of its monarch?...Show more
Helen Zafar: What a waste of money!
Lucien Hellerman: 1. I highly doubt there is a piece of cake from Charles and Camilla's wedding on sale.2. Even if there is (an authentic) one, why would ! you want to have a piece of cake from someone else's wedding?
Valentine Willinger: This is plot device in story telling.Please understand the The Crown is DRAMA--a FICTIONALIZED accounting of what Netflix considers the Queen's story. The Crown is not a documentary. Writers have no idea what these people said to each other--so none of this dialogue really happened as portrayed.What did happen is that Elizabeth learned about what a Constitutional Monarch must do, that it is a job of service, of duty. She learned that she represented the United Kingdom and her other realms, and as Queen must fulfill her duties as hereditary monarch, that people count on her fulfilling her job. Elizabeth would have received tips,pointers, advice from Queen Mary, her mother, Queen Elizabeth, her prime minister, and while they were alive, her father and her grandfather... she also received lessons from university provosts about the constitution, royal prerogatives.
Maye Delk: Yes, but all divorce had to be sanctioned not just by the state but by! the Church. Catholics hold that marriage is permanent and even if you divorce in the eyes of the state, in their and GODS eyes you are still married.
Elvin Weichbrodt: In medieval and renaissance Europe, the nerest to legal divorce was the annulment of a marriage by the Church.In post Reformation England, the only legal divorce was by a private Act of Parliament, and this was the case until the 19th Century.But in the ancient world, in Rome, for example, and centuries before that, in the Middle East, there were civil laws that provided for divorce....Show more
Chastity Doderer: no send me money and ill send you some fresh cake and we wont have to pay the fee
Brittanie Zakutney: What? Why would you bid on a peice of cake? it's not like it would last forever, and where on earth would you put it? What would you do with it?
Erica Bottaro: It was not a divorce in its true sense. He wanted an annulment. In a divorce, a marriage is dissolved, but in techn! icality it acknowledges that you were married for the time period befor! e your divorce--also any children before the divorce are considered legitimate. An annulment on the other hand makes that marriage null and void; the marriage was not legal and technically the marriage did not occur at all. If he divorced C of A, Mary would have still been legitimate since he was married at the time of her birth. But since she was declared a bastard, it was an annulment. And back to your main Q, yes there were divorces (in its pure form) before. Ancient Rome, Augustus (Octavian) divorced his 2 of his wives, also Caesar. And the Catholic church does not grant divorces only annulments as long as it is within grounds (e.g. nonconsummation, incest)...Show more
Leora Klingelhoets: you're kidding actual? maximum people who keep their cake or purely one 365 days with it wrapped up tight like is cautioned throw it out after one chew because of the fact it tastes so undesirable from being frozen that long. keeping a cake for seventy 5 yrs is previous stupid an! d insane. yet once you desire to die from nutrients poisoning, pass actual forward.
Cortez Badolato: there annulment but not divorce
Lourie Mcroberts: None of this happened, how on earth can anyone know what went on in private? i found that series very bad, lots of stuff in it were not fact.
Rhett Kaines: Well for starters, you should NEVER take what's in a drama/film as totally true. I have no doubt Elizabeth was aware that 'country comes first' and that being a strong woman, she KNEW that from the get-go. Even from the moment her father had to take over the Crown, from his abdicated brother.I don't think the current Queen is remotely 'devoid of any individual personality' - not by a country mile.
Ismael Sixon: You're really going to have to do better than trolling chat like this.
Catheryn Barringer: everything bad
Lillie Yarde: The point is that their behavior is dictated by the fact that they are head of state rather than being i! n accordance with their own preferences. Something more heads of state ! might do to remember.
Geraldo Mccalla: if she does ask for it, the contribution i mean. and how many of you would sail in it with her, would you be honored or not?
Olen Penhallurick: I must be confused.Charles and Camilla got married on E Bay?
Leora Klingelhoets: The Nation should lease a yacht for the diamond jubilee ceremonies. Investing in a yacht for the next 50 years is a poor use of money. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge should be provided with a smaller helicopter than the Sikorsky 76C++ that the rest of the royals use. Prince William can get a license to pilot it himself. That will put him within an hour or two of most of his engagements in Southern Britain.
Inell Riesgo: One has already donated a crisp £5 note, dear Sasha, which is a lot more than young Cameron shall be doing. One has already been perusing ones atlas, and one should like to sail to Mustique with Her Majesty, just for old time's sake.
Marjory Stromme: Yes, you shou! ld do so because it is owning a piece of history
Giovanna Cramblit: Arrr matee......pass'n round the horn we be......who put the rum in the old bats tea
Lu Snide: divorce has been around for centuries before Henry VIII. it will be around for many more centuries.
Pei Heatherly: The King wanted a son as heir to the throne. Henry VIII did not divorce Anne Boleyn, she was beheaded. He used the excuse of adultry. It is believed that she was actually innocent of this accusation. Ann had a daughter, Elizabeth. She was later Queen of England.
Christy Tirabassi: don't know:{
Arnoldo Budzynski: Not I. I'm not British.
Hunter Beech: Yes, but not within the Catholic church. Divorce is actually mentioned in the bible by the apostle Paul.
Octavio Roylance: Queenie is a total bore of a human being. Her family are even worse.
Dannie Briseno: Not at all, dear boy. Perhaps in days gone by it would have been desirable to create or to continu! e the mystique surrounding the position but in the era of enlightenment! known simply as "these days", it is no longer necessary, nor advisable.You see, the movie and telly industry must take certain liberties to capture an audience and keep them entertained and this, dear boy, is why there is so much drivel and misinformation about the Royals currently doing the rounds, so to speak.Witness our dear Queen Elizabeth II, a lovely, caring, little old lady by all accounts and certainly not some aloof, straight-faced dragon who rules most of the known universe.ps. I believe the name you were looking for is Mountbatten. Just mentionin'.
Sherri Drakos: Monarchs, like everyone else, have a choice about how to do their jobs. For the Queen, there is a risk that if she pushes the envelope too far, people will question whether a monarchy is really the right way for the nation to be governed. But she could, perhaps, have tried to push the envelope even a little. The Crown is a dramatisation that chooses to push a particular story line. Personally I ! do not buy the suggestion that she was unwillingly managed by her courtiers....Show more
Idell Dufort: Granted, it's not that old, but it is coming in at a good price. There are only about 17 bids so far. My fingers tremble as I hover over the "place your bid now" button!
Marjory Stromme: Sorry no I will not be contributing to a new Royal Yacht. No doubt when the politicians say the Nation will pay for the Yacht, it means it will come out of our tax's. Although I have great respect her, the Queen has more money then me and can afford to pay for her own yacht.
Mitchel Demry: Yes, it is talked about in the Bible. God did not approve of it, but it certainly happenned.
Abel Adger: What would you do with it exactly? Personally, I think it's a waste of money. No offense.Wouldn't it be better money spent if it was used for a charity?
Filiberto Ranalli: Seems like a good way to waste your money. I'd say pay off the credit card bill first.
Gord! on Showes: If, and when, she opens the Ripper Archives and WE SEE THE T! RUTH, I shall donate the sum of one guinea. Plus VAT
Delmer Pectol: Not for Catholics, but that didn't stop Henry VIII.
