Scandals during this king's reign included the marriage of the King's Solicitor, Thomas Lynom, to a notorious harlot. That harlot was Jane Shore, whom this king ordered to make public penance. This king ordered the execution of Baron William Hastings and the Titulus Regius was an act of Parliament that authorized this man's succession to the throne. Early in his reign, this king executed Anthony (*) Woodville, who had been influential during the rule of this king's older brother. The defection of the Stanleys helped doom this king when he was opposed by a pretender from Wales. For ten points, name this last king of the House of York, who became the last English monarch to die in battle at Bosworth Field.
