“Negotiations with Rome dragged on for years as Charles V, at the urging of his aunt, Catherine of Aragon, pressured Pope Clement VI not to grant the annulment. Henry’s increasing frustration led to the fall of Wolsey in 1529 and the subsequent rise of Thomas Cromwell and Thomas Cranmer as the principal advisers to the king on state and religious matters. The influence of Protestants at the court became evident during the early 1530’s. In 1533, a group of English bishops granted the king his annulment; Henry married Boleyn, who soon gave birth to Princess Elizabeth.” (Walker) Henry Wanted to make sure that he has a son that can continue the Tudor dynasty.
