Henry VIII started it. In his fight with the Pope over his divorce of Katherine he cut himself off from the Catholic church and made the Church illegal in England. He began the Church of England and started to take the church properties from the Catholic church and close churches. He had churches destroyed, arrested clergy, and took church property. Thus, the Protestant Reformation was begun under his rein. Anne Boleyn added to it by pushing Henry to keep up his fight with the church and published articles against the church. They were enable to enrich the Crown with the goods and property of the Catholic church.
I think you mean henry Vlll he broke away from the Catholic religion to get a divorce from Catherine of Aragon, so he could marry Anne Bolyn, this established the Church of England.

As Henry VIII completely disavowed Christ's rule through His appointed Vicar, the Pope, his reformation was completely protestant.

henry VIII!
Henry VIII did a great job of preventing the Protestant Reformation from having any great affect on England - until he needed a divorce. When the Catholic Church refused to grant Henry VIII a divorce, he decided to make his own version of Christianity, where he made the rules. Henry VIII started the Anglican / Church of England, where Henry VIII was the head of the church (much like the Pope). Henry VIII gave himself permission to divorce and ordered all his subjects to become Protestant.
Henry VIII changed to the protestant church after the catcholic did not allow him to divorce his wife.

Henry wasn't outside the reformation, but in the middle of it. He BEGAN the reformation when he broke from the Catholic church over his divorce with his wife so he could marry Bolyn .
By removing all the constitutional restrictions the working out of the protestant reformation from Henry VII through Charles provided impetus for English settlement.

No he was not. Henry VIII was baptised as a Roman Catholic and died as Head of the Church of England. At the time of his death the Church of England was still theologically Catholic. The English Reformation and Protestant influences came a lot later.
