He did not divorce Anne of Cleves. That marriage was annulled. His first two marriages did not end in divorce. His first wife he divorced; his second wife he had beheaded.

annulled - divorced .. it's a matter of interpretation. When the Catholic church wouldn't grant him a divorce, he created the Anglican Church and had his marriage annulled.

Technically he only had 4, because 2 of the marriages were annulled, so they never 'existed'.

Player #2445394, I get you were trying to make a joke. FYI, it's both wrong and offensive. Someone can be XY, XXY (Klinefelter's), XYY, and amab, but female by gender. Ditto, being XX does not make one a woman.

Henry the VIII in the question but Henry vii in the description, just a slight, might have already been picked up

Apparently the reason Henry’s marriages failed to produce a viable male heir was to do with his genetics, something they wouldn’t have understood in those days. His longest living male child was Edward who Jane Seymour bore him and he only lived about 15 years.
