Catherine of Aragon's marriage to Henry VIII was annulled primarily because Henry sought to marry Anne Boleyn, with whom he had fallen in love and hoped to have a male heir. Catherine had only provided him with a daughter, Mary, and Henry believed that their marriage was cursed due to biblical reasons, as Catherine had been his brother's widow. The Pope's refusal to annul the marriage, largely due to political pressures, led Henry to break from the Catholic Church and establish the Church of England, allowing him to annul the marriage himself.
