Because she was unable to provide him with a male heir. She had a stillborn daughter and two baby sons who died in infancy, along with another daughter who survived and went on to become Mary Tudor.
At the time, the only Christian Church in the Western world was the Roman Catholic Church, which forbade divorce. Frustrated at this, Henry decided to establish a seperate Christian faith called the Church of England which DID permit divorce, and which later spread all over the world as the Anglican Church. The King divorced Catherine in 1533; she died three years later and is buried at Peterborough Abbey.
Henry's Chancellor, Sir Thomas More, opposed the principle of divorce and made a number of attempts to block Henry's second marriage, to Anne Boleyn. After a long period of desperately trying to get Sir Thomas to change his mind (Henry was genuinely fond of his Chancellor), he reluctantly had him sentenced to death in 1535. More was canonised in 1935.
