When Queen Mary said that the last commoner to marry into the Royal Family was Anne Boleyn, this was incorrect. Prince George (later King George IV) secretly married a commoner Maria Fitzherbert, although this marriage was ruled invalid and illegal. His younger brother Prince Augustus Frederick had two wives, both minor noblewomen. James II was married to Anne Hyde in 1660. Even Henry VIII's later wives Catherine Howard and Catherine Parr were of similar non-royal status as Anne Boleyn.
