Anne Boleyn was the Queen of England for three years before her life went downhill very quickly. Things went sour because Anne did not give her husband, King Henry of England, a son. They did have a daughter, though, who would later become Elizabeth I of England. On this day in 1536, Anne was arrested and put in jail. King Henry said she was unfaithful to him and eventually had her killed. However, after Elizabeth became Queen, she cleared her mother's name. Today, Anne Boleyn is considered an important figure in England's long history.
安˙博林成為英格蘭的皇后不過3年，人生就開始迅速走下坡。這一切的風雲變色肇始於安未能替英王亨利生下一個兒子。然而，他們倒是有個女兒，也就是日後的英國女王伊莉莎白一世。1536年的今天，安遭到逮捕與監禁。英王亨利說安對他不忠，最後還將她處死。然而，伊莉莎白成為女王後隨即為她母親平反。如今，安．博林被視為英國漫長歷史中一名很重要的人物。
