Technically, all of his wives died because, obviously, they lived long ago. However, if you mean "How many of his wives did Henry VIII kill?" then the answer is either two or four (if you're a Catholic). Henry's second marriage to Ann Boleyn was declared illegal by the Pope because Henry was still married to his first wife, Catherine of Aragon. This lead Henry to declare himself the new head of the Church of England and so declare that his first marriage was illegal. Henry subsequently annulled his marriage to Ann Boleyn, meaning she was never his wife, just before he had her executed.

Henry's fourth marriage to Ann of Cleves was similarly annulled though she was not killed.

Henry's fifth wife, Catherine Howard, was also annulled before Henry had her executed. Henry's last wife, Catherine Parr, outlived him.

28 January 1547 He could have died from a number of reasons. He always ahd an open leg wound on his left thigh from a jousting accident in the 1530's, and the infection and pain could have killed him. Or, more likely, Henry became very obese in his later life, and, along with his leg wound, could hardly walk and needed assistance. Obesity probably killed him. He died in the Palace of Whitehall, on what would have been his father's 90th birthday
