Full name was Henry Tudor

Why he might be annoying:

His marital history speaks for itself.
He broke with the Catholic Church because he wanted to divorce Catherine of Aragon.
He had his second wife (Anne Boleyn) beheaded on false charges of incest and adultery.

Why he might not be annoying:

He founded the Anglican Church.
His three children all became rulers of England.
That Herman Hermit's song 'I'm Henry VIII I Am' is not about the real King Henry.
He composed the song 'Pastime in Good Companye.'
