Henry VIII did not form the Catholic Church. He actually broke away from the Catholic Church and formed the Church of England in 1534.
Henry the VIII was a good roman catholic but he then turned into a protestant (church of England.
John Henry Newman was initially a member of the Church of England. He was a prominent figure in the Oxford Movement, which sought to reform the Church of England and return to its Catholic roots. However, in 1845, he converted to Roman Catholicism, becoming a cardinal and a significant theologian within the Catholic Church.
Henry broke away from the catholic church and established the Church of England with himself as head.
King Henry VIII separated the Church in England from the control of the Pope, although he initially did not intend to start an entirely separate Protestant faith. By the time of Queen Elizabeth, the split was permanent and the Church of England was a reality.

The Roman Catholic church
There were no protestants before that time in England. The only reason Henry VIII broke away from the church is so he could divorce Catharine of Aragon (divorce was not allowed in the Catholic Church) and marry Anne Boleyn. Actually, Martin Luther had already made his split from the Catholic Church before Henry had is 'little problem.' He defended the Church against Martin Luther's heresies and received the title of 'Defender of the Faith' from the pope.
Catholic and then the Church of England when Henry left the church. Everyone was Catholic in his time.
No king has ever replaced a pope as head of the Catholic Church. Henry VIII did break from the Catholic Church and formed what is the Church of England but which is not a Catholic Church as it is not in union with Rome.
