Birth of Elizabeth (1533)
On the 7th of September 1533, Anne gave birth to a girl called, Elizabeth. But this was not to Henry's liking as he wanted a boy, and as Anne didn't bare him one, he lost taste in her.

Downfall and Execution (1536)
Henry and Anne received the news of Catherine's Death on the 8th of Janurary 1536. The following day Henry and Anne wore yellow from top to bottom. Yellow was a symbol of celebration, and Henry ordered festivities and celebration the whole day. In Spain, the home country of Catherine of Aragon, was mistaken and thought that the King nd Queen were in mourning as Yellow was the same as wearing black and was the colour of mourning and sadness.

Henry and Anne tried for a boy after many tries Anne could not bare him a son, so Henry accused Anne of withcraft, this was largely based on the fact that Anne had and extra finger on one of her hands. This consequently lead to accusations of other charges such as adultery, incest and even Treason towards the monarchy, all are punishable by death. This plot was formulated by the King's Chief minister, Thomas Cromwell.

On the 19th May 1536, Anne was beheaded for crimes against the king.
