Jane Seymour (1509–1537) was King Henry VIII of England’s third wife. The couple gave birth to King Edward VI. She was the daughter of Sir John Seymour of Wiltshire. Although she was not as educated as King Henry VIII’s other wives, she was skilled in house management and needlework. Also, she could write and read — with some difficulties. All these were skills considered necessary for a woman during Seymour’s times. She also possessed other skills that made her endearing to the king. For instance, she is said to have been gentle as well as sweet-natured. These traits differentiated Jane Seymour from King Henry’s other wives, especially the second one. They also made her his favorite wife.
