Catherine of Aragon by Michael Sittow c. 1502
I have just finished writing an article about the ghost of Catherine of Aragon. Although her spectre is not as prolific as that of Anne Boleyn’s she still makes her presence known in Castle Lodge, Ludlow where she and Arthur, Prince of Wales, spent the early months of their marriage and in Kimbolton Castle where she took her final breaths.

A fantastic article, thank you. I have always been very intrigued by Catherine of Aragon, a very multi-layered, complex character. I’m intrigued about her ghost(s), though the reports of her appearing as a teenage spectre and as an adult woman do lend credence to the theory that ghosts are simply sensitive people accessing the past. How I’d love to see the teenaged Catherine! And that letter of hers, that unbelievable last line, is unforgettable. Would love a movie about Catherine … now, who should play her?
I am intrigued by Catherine of Aragon, her accomplishments and contributions for women of her time… are impeccable.. I long for a historically accurate well written interpretation about this great Queen.
I agree Alejandra, Catherine of Aragon is an incredibly interesting woman and I would love someone to write a meticulously researched and detailed full-length account of her life, achievements and legacy. Well said!
