Let’s suppose Edmund, Duke of Somerset didn’t die as an infant, and lived to a full grown adult with many sons of his own, and both Edmund and Henry VIII hated each other. Is it still feasible for Henry VIII to break away from the Church if he still had his OTL marriage problems without triggering a massive, much more serious revolt led by his younger brother? I’d presume that far less people would have supported Henry VIII with the presence of a younger brother, and it would have potentially led to civil war if proceeded with his OTL policies?
