| Naturally, I cannot help but be interested in those members of the British Royal Family who have been and are converts to the Church of Rome. Since the era of Protestant rule began until the present day there have been British royals who caused shock in some and admiration in others by "swimming the Tiber" and embracing their Catholic roots. It is, after all, the Church of the largest part of British history. |
| King Charles II Edward Windsor, Lord Downpatrick Lady Anne Hyde King James II Katharine, Duchess of Kent Lord Nicholas Windsor (George Windsor, Earl of St Andrews married a Canadian Catholic, albeit one who had been divorced so is not in full communion in any event) Princess Michael of Kent The Duke of Norfolk (not a member of the royal family but certainly of royal descent) |
| British Royal consorts and mistresses who were Catholic: Catherine of Braganza 1st Duchess of Cleveland The Duchess of Portsmouth Mary of Modena Maria Fitzherbert . . |
