After Henry changed the church he was basically a tyrant. He was able to divorce as he pleased and no one had any say... not even the Pope. However, Henry was a very religious man so he did keep by The Bible he had read so extensively that he had studied it more than the bishops themselves. To answer your question Henry was the same person he had always been, but now he had the power to do as he pleased.

Henry started out as any other king of his day , corrupt and power mad. He was made worse after an accident jousting, when he was crushed between horse and armour!

He was a virtual monster , but he didn't change the Church, he was born into the Catholic Church in England and both he and the Church remained loyal to the faith!

He didn't get better or even improve as far as I can see, the medical knowledge wasn't available!

How did Henry the viii change the church in England?

Henry VIII removed the Churches in England from Papal oversight, with the result that every Bishop (save one) resigned. Henry stole all the land that belonged to the Church, giving monasteries and convents to newly created peers, and using the loot stolen from the Church to finance his government. He then formed an entirely new Church on protestant lines, howbeit with a service that kind of looked like the Catholic Mass, although it was in English.
