One of the most ruthless yet celebrated Kings of England was Henry V, the man who valiantly led the English Army against the French during the Battle of Agincourt. Henry V would reign for only a short period throughout the Medieval period, and he was a King for only 9 years but he is remembered for his military skill and might. However Henry V's died early, and he would be buried inside of a ornate tomb inside of Westminster Abbey. But his tomb in the recent decades was opened and what was found was incredibly shocking.
In 1953 Henry V's tomb was opened inside of Westminster Abbey and it was found that buried in his tomb with the King was the King's close friend Richard Courtenay. This led historians to consider the role that Henry V's friend had in his life, and some even questioned if he was the King's lover. But this was a shocking discovery.
