No, he is her great(x15)granduncle.
As the previous poster said Henry VIII 's children left no heirs.
However, the next monarch to be distantly related to a wife of King Henry will be William, since the late Princess Diana was from the Spencer family who are connected to the Boleyns.

She is related, but not a direct descendant. Henry VIII was a Tudor monarch and the Tudor line died out when Elizabeth 1 died without an heir.
For the link between our current queen and Henry you have to go back before Henry.
It's impossible to explain in words, but the attached family tree will show you the link.

Nope.
His daughter Elizabeth turned the crown over to the Stuart line (when she died), then when the people took it from them it was passed to William and Mary (of Orange I believe); that line continues today.
Edited slightly for clarification.

no as all his legitimate children died without producing any children.
