King Henry VIII became the supreme head of the Church of England. He created the English Church or the Church of England Anglicans. And ultimately became the head of the Church kind of like the Pope is the head of Catholic Church. He needed to do this to not have the approval of the Pope and divorce Catherine of Argon and marry Anne Boleyn
he was head of the Church in those days, so when he broke with the Catholic Church, he now became Head of the "new" church of England, that made it law.

Henry VIII split up from the pope to divorce his first wife Catherine of Aragon. At first Henry did ask the pope for the divorce but the pope refused. Henry decided to break away from the pope and name himself as the head of the Church of England so he didn't need permission to divorce Catherine
