Description

Overlay of Jonathan Rhys Meyer as Henry VIII and Annabelle Wallis as Jane Seymour.

In 1537 Jane Seymour gave birth to her only child, a son, of which her husband Henry had discarded two wives to have. Jane died 12 days later from a post-natal infection. Henry was devastated, he admitted that "divine providence hath mingled my joy with the bitterness of the death of she who brought such happiness."
Henry would marry three more times, however he always regarded Jane as his 'true' wife and would be buried beside her.

I want the picture of Jane so badly! I've been trying to find it everywhere, but I couldn't. Can you give me the link, or something? At least tell me where I may find it? Please...?
