Henry VIII established the Church of England primarily due to his desire to annul his marriage to Catherine of Aragon, which the Pope refused to sanction. Frustrated by the Pope's denial, Henry sought to consolidate power and break away from the Roman Catholic Church's authority, leading to the English Reformation. This culminated in the Act of Supremacy in 1534, which declared Henry as the Supreme Head of the Church of England.
Henry VIII did it because he wanted a divorce from his first wife, Catherine of Aragon.

English church ??
Henry the XIII wanted a divorce and the Catholic Church didn't want to grant it. Henry then broke off the Church in England and created the Anglican Church so that he could get divorced and remarried.
Sir Thomas More remained loyal to the Catholic Church even after King Henry VIII broke away from the Church to establish the Church of England. After his execution, he was canonized as a saint in the Catholic Church.
The Church of England
Answer The Church of England was established by King Henry VIII of England in 1534 (EDIT)
The Pope stopped speaking to King Henry VIII because Henry requested an annulment of his marriage to Catherine of Aragon, which the Pope refused to grant. This led Henry to break away from the Catholic Church and establish the Church of England with himself as the head, causing a rift between him and the Pope.
If you are speaking of Henry VIII, then that would be the Church of England, also known as the Anglican church.
Henry VIII set up the Anglican church when the pope wouldn't give him a divorce.
I don't know about Henry VII establishing a church, but Henry VIII was excommunicated from the Roman Catholic church and subsequently the Church of England was established. Henry wanted a divorce from Katherine of Aragon so that he could marry Anne Boleyn. This caused a lot of problems, not least of which was the question of divorce being, well, out of the question. I realise my answer is daubed with quite a wide brush and lacking detail, but I'm sure Hedley can fill in the gaps!
