when henry viii died they didn’t want anyone to know it yet (for political reasons) so they kept up appearances by having meals delivered to his room to make it look like he was still alive. so, ya know, just keep that in mind for the future.

Same with his father!
When Henry VII died, the Order of the Garter was due to meet just a few days later.
Those in the know kept it quiet so all the key players would gather for business as usual.
They then announced the king’s death and made a bunch of arrests with young Henry VIII’s approval.
