How old is Henry the II?

Answer 1

Henry II of England (5 March 1133 – 6 July 1189) ruled as King of England from 1154 to 1189. He would have been 874 years old today.

If you meant Prince Harry of Wales he was born on 15 September 1984. He is currently 23 years old and third in line to the British throne. If he ever became King of the United Kingdom, he won't be Henry II but more like Henry IX.

Answer 2

Henry Charles Albert David, HRH, Henry Prince of Wales, also known as Prince Harry, is 23 (born 15 September 1984). Henry II (5 March 1133--6 July 1189), the first of the Plantagenet-Angevin dynasty of England and the most powerful king in France during his life time because of his marriage to Eleanor of Aquatine as well as the person indirectly responsible for the murder of Thomas Beckett, is permanently 46.

Answer 3

How "OLD" (IS) Henry the II? I think he stopped living a few hundred Years ago so he is DEAD. Do you mean how old WAS Henry 2nd or the current Prince Henry... who would NOT be the 2nd.

Answer 4

Henry II (1133 - 1189)

1189 - 1133 = 56 years old when he died.

Henry II is dead: from http://www.royal.gov/uk :
"HENRY II CURTMANTLE (r. 1154-1189)

Henry II ruled over an empire which stretched from the Scottish border to the Pyrenees.

One of the strongest, most energetic and imaginative rulers, Henry was the inheritor of three dynasties who had acquired Aquitaine by marriage; his charters listed them: 'King of the English, Duke of the Normans and Aquitanians and Count of the Angevins'.

The King spent only 13 years of his reign in England; the other 21 years were spent on the continent in his territories in what is now France.

Henry's rapid movements in carrying out his dynastic responsibilities astonished the French king, who noted 'now in England, now in Normandy, he must fly rather than travel by horse or ship'.

By 1158, Henry had restored to the Crown some of the lands and royal power lost by Stephen; Malcom IV of Scotland was compelled to return the northern counties. Locally chosen sheriffs were changed into royally appointed agents charged with enforcing the law and collecting taxes in the counties.

Personally interested in government and law, Henry made use of juries and re-introduced the sending of justices (judges) on regular tours of the country to try cases for the Crown. His legal reforms have led him to be seen as the founder of English Common Law.

Henry's disagreements with the Archbishop of Canterbury (the king's former chief adviser), Thomas à Becket, over Church-State relations ended in Becket's murder in 1170 and a papal interdict on England.

Family disputes over territorial ambitions almost wrecked the king's achievements. Henry died in France in 1189, at war with his son Richard, who had joined forces with King Philip of France to attack Normandy."

Henry,known as "Prince Harry is the younger son of The Prince of Wales and Diana, Princess of Wales.
He was born at 4.20pm on 15th September, 1984 at St Mary's Hospital, Paddington, in central London. He weighed 6lb 14oz.

On 21st December 1984, Prince Henry Charles Albert David was christened by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Robert Runcie, in St George’s Chapel, Windsor.

After attending Mrs Mynors School, Prince Harry became a pupil at Wetherby School in London, from September 1987. In September 1992, Harry joined his older brother William at Ludgrove School in Berkshire where he stayed for five years.

He then attended Eton College from September 1998 where he took his GCSE’s and A Levels.

After completing his A Levels, Prince Harry took a gap year during which he visited Australia, Argentina and Africa, where he made a documentary about the plight of orphans in Lesotho.

Prince Harry entered the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst in May 2005. He successfully completed a 44-week training course as an Officer Cadet, before being commissioned in April 2006 as a Second Lieutenant in the Household Cavalry (Blues and Royals)."
