His favourite method was to divorce or behead them.
Unfortunately for Henry, the catholic church and the Pope in Rome wouldn't allow divorce.
So Henry declared himself as the protector of the faith, creating the "Church of England" then destroying the catholic monestaries in in England. No he was the only one who could represent the spokes person to God on behalf of the people of England & Scotland. Once he was D.E.F. / F.D. (Fidei Defensor) he declared his divorce as legal in the eyes of the Lord God and divorced them.
There is a ditty to remember the fates of his wives.
King Henry the Eighth,
to six wives he was wedded.
One died, one survived,
two divorced, two beheaded.
