Answer:

He seeked divorce.

Step-by-step explanation:

When Catherine failed to produce a male heir, Henry divorced her against the will of the Roman Catholic Church, thus precipitating the Protestant Reformation in England.Henry Vlll needed a male child, but Catherine failed to do that. So, he (naturally) wanted to divorce.

*(This is my own thought, not the answer nor explanation: Don´t you agree Henry Vlll kind of just wanted to use his wife for a male child, to continue his lineage? I find that insulting, his actions literally show that he´s a user. Please remember this comment is my thoughts, not the answer.)*
