Cleves
A. Anne of Cleves
A) Anne of Cleves
The answer is Anne of Cleves the fourth wife of Henry VIII of England from 6 January 1540 to 9 July 1540. But, it was Sir Horace Walpole (not Henry VIII), writing in the 18th century, who resurrected the myth which described Anne as "The Flanders Mare" — a monument to ugliness. This view persisted, and it is still a popular stereotype. Most modern historians, however, disagree with it, and the Holbein portrait certainly contradicts Walpole. Recent viewpoints suggest that it is more likely she found Henry to be the ugly one due to his obesity, and therefore purposely made him dislike her.
Anne of Cleves...built like a horse!
