Queen Elizabeth I (1533- 1603), daughter of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn (Henry's second wife), had the following siblings:
half sister Mary I (1516 - 1558) by Catherine of Aragon, Henry's first wife
half brother Edward VI (1537 - 1553) by Jane Seymour, Henry's third wife
she also had an acknowledged illegitimate half-brother:
Henry Fitzroy (1519 - 1536) Duke of Richmond (by Henry's mistress Elizabeth Blount)
There are possibly other illegitimate half brothers and sisters, particularly by Mary Boleyn, sister of Anne Boleyn and another of Henry's mistresses (the main possibility being her son, Henry Carey), but they have never been confirmed or acknowledged.
No, she had no reason to, and not necessarily anything to gain by it.
Her brother was the King of England, something protestants and Catholics alike believed was a God given right that could be taken away by no one.
She and her brother shared the same religion and had both been brought up and educated in a similar way.
Queen Elizabeth I had 2 brothers, 1 of them, Edward VII, he was her half-brother and Elizabeths other brother, King Philip II, was her brother-in-law. :D
