Mary Boleyn: 'The Great and Infamous Whore'

 
Mary Boleyn is remembered by posterity as a 'great and infamous whore'. She was the mistress of two kings, Francis I of France and Henry VIII of England, and sister to Anne Boleyn, Henry VIII's second wife. She may secretly have borne Henry a child and it was because of his adultery with Mary that his marriage to Anne was annulled.
