# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Catherine Howard was born around 1523, daughter of Lord Edmund Howard and a first cousin to Anne Boleyn, who had already lost her head on Henry's orders. Her uncle, Thomas Howard, 3rd Duke of Norfolk, placed her in the household of Anne of Cleves, Henry's fourth wife. The king noticed her there. On 28 July 1540, nineteen days after his marriage to Anne of Cleves was annulled, Henry married Catherine at Oatlands Palace in Surrey. He was 49; she was about 17. By November 1541 she was stripped of her title as queen. The grounds were treason: adultery with her distant cousin, Thomas Culpeper. On 13 February 1542, Catherine Howard was beheaded.
