Two.
Wife 1-Catherine of Aragon- When Henry took over as head of church of England he declared it invalid on grounds that you cant sleep with your brothers widow.(cited in old testament).
Wife 2-Anne Boleyn- Declared illegal(by pope) as he was still married to Catherine.
Wife 4- Anne of ClevesAnnulled ( not same as divorce - annull =legally the marriage didnt take place)
Wife 5-Catherine Howad- annulled.
So he was legally married to:
Catherine Parr (number six) and Jane Seymour (number 3)
