This was the English King Henry VIII, who reigned from 1509 - 47. He was actually married six times- two of his other wives he divorced, one died soon after childbirth, and the last one survived him, but only by a few months.

The two of his wives he beheaded were Ann Boleyn in 1536, because she was unable to provide him with a male heir but also refused to agree to a divorce, and also Catherine Howard in 1542 for alleged treason (she had committed adultery, and this was ergarded as a treasonable offence for a consort in Tudor times).
