Certain British rulers have been…unkind to their wives. What British King is known for killing or divorcing 4 of his 6 wives?

Henry VIII had six wives in total, of which he beheaded two. His marriage to Anne Boleyn caused a rift from the English monarchy and the Catholic Church, during which Henry established the Anglican Church. You can remember their fates by the rhyme "divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived"!
