Anne Boleyn. Many say it was Elizabeth I, but the Boleyn family was a faithful protestant.
cos Anne Boleyn
As her marriage to Henry VIII was central to his split from the Catholic Church, she would have been Catholic, not having lived long enough to have become Protestant.she was a Protestant!! Both she and Henry VIII were Catholics as was (and is) the Church of England they were just not in communion with Rome.
It's just the Catholic Church, not the Roman Catholic Church. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is rarely used by the Catholic Church. King Henry VIII wanted to marry Anne Boleyn but the Holy Father would not give him an annulment of his valid marriage to Catherine of Aragon.
Henry VIII started of as a Catholic, became a Protestant, although he later undid many of his reforms creating the Church of England that's a cross between the Catholic Church and Evangelical churches. Catherine of Aragon was a Catholic. Anne Boleyn was a Protestant. Jane Seymour accepted her husbands religion, although many sources said that she was a Catholic at heart. Anne of Cleeves was a strong Protestant. Catherine Howard was a protestant. Catherine Parr was also a strong protestant. ------ The Children ----- Edward was brought up a protestant, as was Elizabeth, but Mary was brought up a firm believer in the Catholic faith.
Like a lot of people in the medievil times you changed your religious beliefs to be as the king, or you was seen to be commiting treason. Anne i believe was a catholic but she had read about the protestant faith and was supportive of its approach. Her daughter Queen Elizabeth I was a protestant Queen.
There is no record of Anne Boleyn being canonized as a saint by the Catholic Church. Anne Boleyn was the second wife of King Henry VIII of England and was executed in 1536. It is unlikely she would have been considered for canonization due to her controversial life and relationship with Henry VIII.
Born catholic, as the whole of England was at the time of her birth. Became protestant (Church of England) as she studied books of stuff like that, realised that being protestant she could marry Henry so convinced him to divorce under new religion, and they then made the whole of England protestant, and Henry head of the church.
Martin Luther created the Protestant Reformation to change the ways of the Holy Roman Catholic Church. Henry the VIII, who was a Catholic at the time, fell in love with a Protestant woman name Anne Boleyn. The Catholic Church did not grant Henry VIII his divorce with Catherine of Aragon, leading Anne Boleyn to convince her love that a new religious order will allow their marriage to be legit. Thus, Henry VIII created the Anglican Church, having the same aim as Luther: the Church needed to be reformed.
Anne Boleyn was a lady-in-waiting to Queen Claude of France where she learnt about Luther and his beliefs. She is considered to have been a secret Protestant. She also supported the English Reformation and raised her own daughter Queen Elizabeth I. to be a Protestant. However, Anne is said not to have stopped worshipping Virgin Mary which was unusual among Protestants.
