King Henry the VIII. He wanted to divorce his first wife (who had not born him a male heir) and marry Anne Boleyn (in the hope she might birth male children). When the Pope refused to give Henry a divorce, he broke off from the Catholic Church and married Ms. Boleyn, killing many Catholic Clergy people who refused to go along with King Henry. Anne Boleyn was unable to bear male children who lived, so she was executed, and Henry's later life was a disaster. He died in terrible pain, and did not have a son to follow him as king. The next ruler of England was a queen (daughter).
