Show Notes
As Lady Latimer after her second wedding in 1534, Catherine, her husband, and her step-children found themselves enmeshed in the growing public anger at Henry's moves to impose his new religion, as well as various other political gripes. In 1536 and 1537, a genuine uprising occurred, with Catholic rebels dragging Lord Latimer - a fellow Catholic - from their home to be pressed into service against the King.
Catherine and her step-children were held hostage for months, and Lord Latimer found himself slung up in the Tower of London for some time on suspicion of conspiring with the rebels. The whole episode was enough to leave the family wary of their digs in North Yorkshire and set their sights on olde London town. Finally, Catherine was back in civilization - and at court - and though her much older husband would succumb to ill health in 1543, her adventures in the capitol city were only just beginning.
