About this listen
From humble origins, Charles Brandon rose through charm and skill to become Henry VIII's closest companion, earning wealth and power through loyalty and sport.
His secret marriage to Princess Mary sparked scandal and nearly cost him his life, yet his devotion and political restraint kept him in the king's favor as he led military campaigns and enforced royal authority.
Brandon's later years were marked by loss and steady service; he died honored and remembered not for grand reforms but for surviving the dangers of Henry's court as the king's faithful friend.
