    FALSE! It seems that the previous person who answered this was not as trivial as they believe themselves to be. Think about it. Back in those days, people with deformities were considered evil and most likely would not have won the favor of a king. A man named Nicholas Sander was mad because of the division that Anne caused between Rome and England. In 1585, He wrote a book called: De Origine ac Progressu schismatis Anglicani (The Rise and Growth of the Anglican Schism. In this literature, he claimed that Anne had six fingers and this is how the rumor started. Her body was exhumed in 1876 and no deformities were found.
