Answer

Although Prince Henry was a notorious rake who was known for his womanizing, he eventually settled down and married Catherine Parr. However, it is believed that his marriage was not out of love, but rather was a result of parental pressure. Henry's father, King Henry VIII, had been married five times before, and he wanted his son to have a more successful marriage.
