You know how the other day u said that henry's power as a king was still limited, or something. the man went so far as to break away from the pope to get his own church and become his own pope. he did that so what are the limits of his power? he sure didn't put fitzroy on the throne but that's bc edward was born but imagine if he wasn't like he would have ended up choosing fitzroy as his heir, that's just my opinion but what do u think? the boy was a bastard sure but would it have stopped henry?

Respectfully, I do believe it would have.  Here’s the thing--Henry Fitzroy was dead by the time Edward was born, so the two don’t really intersect.  Rumblings about Fitzroy being put in the line of succession weren’t, from what I remember, long before Henry met Anne Boleyn, and once he became determined to marry her he assumed that she’d give him a son and thus the question was gone.

But even if he hadn’t married Anne--kings putting bastards on the throne was not done.  I can’t think of a time when it happened, but it could very well have happened at some point.  The idea of the line of succession being endangered by bastards is something that troubled higher ups in various countries throughout the centuries--for example, as late as the nineteenth century, when Czar Alexander II married his mistress and that resulted in the legitimization of their children.  But there was still this HUUUUGE divide between how the children of the Czar’s first wife (the Czarina) were treated compared to how the children of his second (morganatic) wife were treated.  Part of this, I’m sure, was due to the general anxiety this kind of behavior caused about the succession.  

Had Henry decided to go ahead and put Fitzroy on the throne in a country where women could inherit (even if they didn’t often) ahead of not only his legitimate, VERY blue-blooded daughter and his male relatives among the nobility, it would not have gone well.  I imagine that people would have revolted.  Spain probably wouldn’t have been thrilled, because Mary I was connected to the Spanish royals through her mother and would have been expected to show sympathy to them as queen (which she later would, marrying the king and all).  See, it wasn’t just Henry’s own nobles who kept him in check--he had to be careful about what he did in regards to other European rulers as well.  Yes, he broke from the church--but he did so with the help of men like Cromwell and Cranmer.  He didn’t do it alone, and when he did it took a long time.  That was in part thanks to the pope having power on his own, and in part thanks to Catholic monarchs not being super happy about it (especially Charles V, who was losing a Spanish connection to England when his aunt was set aside).  Then, you also have to throw into question all of the English nobles with some vague blood ties to royalty who would have, as legitimate family members, thought themselves preeminent over Fitzroy.  Wouldn’t have gone well, and I think Henry knew it.

Those are the limits of his power.  Henry made changes, sure, but he also failed in a lot of respects because there were other power players in his country and abroad.
