Thank you so much to Sarah from the UK for her questions regarding Thomas Culpeper's brothers and sisters, and whether he really had a brother called Thomas Culpeper. Sarah also asked whether Catherine Howard had got pregnant before her marriage and whether she got pregnant during her marriage to Henry VIII. Could she even have been pregnant on the scaffold?
Historian Claire Ridgway, who did start a book on Catherine Howard's fall, answers Sarah's questions and tells us a bit more about the two Thomas Culpepers, as well as rumours of Catherine's pregnancy in 1541.
Book recommendation: Young and Damned and Fair by Gareth Russell.
