Why Henry VIII wanted to be buried near one of his six wives?

Henry VIII's first wife, Catherine of Aragon was buried at Peterborough Cathedral in Cambridgeshire, England.

His second wife, Anne Boleyn was buried in an unmarked grave at the Chapel of St Peter ad Vincula in London. Her remains were identified in the nineteenth century and the place was marked with a marble block in the floor of the chapel.

Jane Seymour, Henry's third wife, was buried at the Chapel of St George in Windsor Castle. At his request, Henry was later buried alongside her.

Anne of Cleves, wife number four, was buried at Westminster Abbey in London.

His fifth wife, Catherine Howard, was also buried in an unmarked grave at the Chapel of St Peter ad Vincula in London.

Catherine Parr, Henry's sixth wife was buried at the chapel of Sudely Castle in Gloucestershire, England. In 1817, her remains were moved to the tomb of Lord Chandos, whose family then owned Sudely Castle, and when the chapel was later re-built an altar tomb was constructed in her honour.
