No contemporary portrait of Anne Boleyn exists either because they were lost, mistakenly identified as someone else or destroyed after her execution. Even the famous National Portrait Gallery portrait of Anne is not contemporary, although it is said to be a copy of a contemporary portrait - seeing as Anne was described as having black eyes and dark hair, it doesn't really fit with contemporary descriptions, the Hever Castle portrait of Anne holding a rose fits in more with that description.
