Which of Henry VIII's six wives gave him his son Edward VI?

Jane Seymour is the correct answer because she was the only one of Henry VIII's wives who successfully gave birth to a male heir, Edward VI. After two daughters, Mary and Elizabeth, from his marriages to Catherine of Aragon and Anne Boleyn respectively, Henry had a strong desire for a male successor to secure the Tudor dynasty. Jane Seymour gave birth to Edward on October 12, 1537, but sadly died just days later due to complications from childbirth. Her role as the mother of the king's only son solidified her place in history as a significant figure among Henry's wives.

The other wives did not provide Henry with a son who survived infancy; Catherine of Aragon and Anne Boleyn had daughters, and Catherine Parr did not have any of Henry's children. Jane's success in this regard was pivotal, as Edward would go on to become king at a very young age, impacting the direction of England's monarchy.
