Random: If Henry loved Anne so much, how could he have chopped off her head? 

It kinds of annoys me when people coo over the great “love” between Anne and Henry. I can agree there was passion, and a whole lot of obsession. But love? He sure didn’t love her when the axe removed her head. He was in love with himself.
