Which Henry and which pope? Please be specific.
No. He wasn't jealous of the pope. King Henry was married to Catherine of Aragon. He falls in love with Anne Boleyn and wants to marry her. He asks the pope to grant him a divorce, but the pope refuses because it was against the Catholic Church to get a divorce. After 7 years, Henry declares that the pope had no power over him and the pope excommunicates him.
