The whole scandal gripped the Tudor court, but at the time many were disgusted by the fact that the young Tudor Queen had an affair behind Henry VIII's back. But who was Thomas Culpeper?
Thomas Culpeper was a man who Henry VIII was very fond of, and some said he was one of his best friends. He was a gentleman of the Privy Chamber in which he helped to dress the King, but Culpepper then caught the eye of the young Catherine Howard. Catherine was much younger than the King, and it's believed that her and Culpeper had a number of liaisons where they slept together. But Culpeper by doing this committed treason, and when the King found out he was furious and Thomas Culpeper was sentenced to death and was executed.
