He wanted to get a divorce with Cathrine of Aragon because he had fallen in love with another woman (and she was having his child so if it was a boy he would become heir and that is what Henry wanted most. also his currentwife couldn't have a child.) The pope didn't let him though, so he took power over the church, destroyed all the monastries and took all the churches money! He was also running short of money so decided to get more from the church!

Hope I helped
