Ivan the Terrible, infamous for his tyrannical rule over
Russia, had a complex romantic history with eight wives, each facing distinct and often tragic fates.</p>
<p>Anastasia Romanova, his first wife, brought out the best in Ivan until her mysterious death at 30, which fueled his descent into tyranny. Maria Temryukovna, the second wife, faced suspicion and an early death, intensifying Ivan's paranoia. Marfa Sobakina, the third wife, succumbed to an illness, triggering Ivan's relentless pursuit of a larger family. Anna Koltovskaya, his unconventional fourth wife, faced banishment, living out her days as a nun. Anna Vasilchikova, the fifth wife, met an early demise after failing to conceive.</p>
