Henry VIII . Ironically he had received from the Pope the honorary title- still used by British monarchs, of Fidei Defensor- defender of the Faith! I believe this was in lk5l6 but may be mistaken, he died in l553 so it would have to have been early in his reign. Henry received the title for his written work which defended the doctrine of transubstantiation (that the physical bread and wine in the communion service changed physically into the body and blood of Jesus). This is something that the Protestant Church does not (or at least did not in the 16th century) hold to.
