C.  Henry VIII

Explanation:

Wise and intelligent, Henry VIII had shown since his youth his fervent Catholicism. He had used his brilliance against the Protestant reform launched by Luther in 1520, showing himself as an energetic defender of the Catholic faith.

But this situation would change as a result of the conflict unleashed with the Church by the pressing succession problem: the marriage to Catalina de Aragón had not given him male heirs. In 1527, Henry VIII asked Pope Clement VII to annul the marriage on the pretext of the previous relationship between the spouses. The Pope, under pressure from Carlos V (who was Catherine's nephew), denied the annulment, and Henry VIII decided to break with Rome, advised by Thomas Cranmer and Thomas Cromwell.
