WHO IS INCARNATION OF KING HENRY VI?
And finally, I would reveal, as I promise, the present incarnation of the Rennaisance king, king who lived and ruled in hard times of Hundred Years War and War of Roses. Henry VI is, as many of you had already guessed, incarnated in the person of blogger who discovered dozens of other incarnation from Rennaisance Europe, but mostly of England and France, especially during the Lancastrian rule, that is in 15th century. My name is Desiderio Valacco, and, as you have already read, am not the only royal incarnation coming from the small town called Pula (Pola). Laura Antonelli, incarnation of Anne of Brittany, queen-consort of France (spouse of Charles VIII, incarnation Jean-Paul Belmondo), was born as well in that town. If you've read some Wikipedia articles, you could have learn that king was „pious and peaceful man ill-suited to the crown, weak-willed and easily influenced“ (by his uncles, especially Gloucester; incarnated in actor Michael Caine; strange to say, I always felt some peculiar kind of respect for this actor,some you would pay to the man of high power and authority).
These are words from Wikipedia article, some 10 years ago, on king’s character: “He was keen on reading and 'book-learning' but showed no inclination whatsoever towards leading his country in battle — ironic, considering his reign was one of the bloodiest in English history.“ And something that have still strong impact on my character, even after five centuries and probably several incarnation in-between. „Henry seems to have used religion and piety as a means of escape from the harsh world of bitter rivalries and power struggles which surrounded him at court. He was excessively prudish, which was encouraged by his confessor who advised him to abstain from sex with his wife as much as possible.“ That confessor was probably Cardinal Henry Beaufort, who incarnated in 20th century Croatia, again as cardinal Franjo Kuharić, again influencing me in that way, only this time just indirectly.
Incarnation of king Henry VI's wife is of course Kaley Cuoco, Hollywood actress, whom I first saw on TV only relarively recently, about 2-3 years ago in TV series „Big Bang Theory“. As many of you saw, I put my marriage proposal on my blog, a year ago. As I stated, I didn't have any intention of getting married, but after that St. Valentine dream of last year, something, some strange 'deja vu' feeling moved me in that direction. At first I wasn't aware that she is actually my wife from the past (glorious) incarnation, but soon I realized it was so. In our former incarnation we married at Nancy, in France, on 23 April 1445. I was 23 years old, and she only 15 years old. But, an early marriage was customary in those times, as the life span was much shorter, than it is today. Now I'm 54 years old, and she 31 years old, her senior by 23 years. I wrote to her a long chain of letters, in which I expressed my feelings for her. (I'm not sure that she received them all, though.) Her previous partners actor Henry Cavill and tennis player Ryan Sweeting are, in my opinion incarnations of Edmund Beaufort, Duke of Somerset and William de la Pole, Duke of Suffollk, repectively.
We had one child from that 15th century royal incarnation - Prince Edward of Westminster. My strong feeling is that he incarnated this time as equestrian Karl Cook (note the surname, in Italian Cuoco means 'cook'). He probably chose to be incarnated, and to live close to his mother, I guess. Incarnation of his wife is Anne Neville (incarnation actress Brooke Mueller), same as one whom married Richard III (incarnation: Charlie Sheen, who was my [Henry VI] cousin in the 2nd degree)

When I started to write this series of posts (August 2016) dedicated to present incarnations of the Rennaisance aristocracy, I thought that I've just found by chance some, four or five similarites between kings and some actors and that's all, but then it continued for 6 more sequels. Again, I didn't think to prolong it any further, but in January again, the first new sequel in some way incited a whole chain of new ones, until I've done a dozen of them, with more than 50 newly-found incarnations.
Of course, I paid a greatest attention to the incarnations related to House of Lancaster, especially those who were relatives of mine. So, to my big surprise I discovered that I was related to many celebrities. For some of them, I even earlier felt some kind of sympathy, for instance, actors Gene Wilder and Kirk Douglas (paternal uncles) and Jane Fonda, Cobie Smulders (paternal aunts) and Jerry Hall (maternal aunt). It is also easier to understand why I liked songs of Bryan Ferry (maternal uncle) and Martin Fry (nephew), and felt appreciation for Bob Geldof (half-brother; by the way, I think tjat incarnation of Jasper Tudor may be actor David Spade). I also liked very much the song „Copacabana“ by Barry Manilow (maternal uncle), every time that I heard it on the radio. There are surely more of celebrities yet undiscovered who were related with me in that past incarnation. Also, there are probably those who incarnated in 19th century Texas, where I lived in more recent incarnation.
