Henry VIII formally broke with the Pope and declared himself "Supreme Head of the Church in England" with the Act of Supremacy on 3 November 1534.

Henry VIII died in 1547. (His immediate successor, Edward VI, was more Protestant than Henry had been.)

Anne Askew was executed in July, 1546, more than 11 years after Henry broke with Rome.

How is "the Roman church" implicated in any way?

IF one reads the text one finds:

Her enthusiastic witness drew the attention of the priests who warned her husband about her "sedition."
