Royal converts to Protestantism
Has there been any major royal figure who converted to Protestantism from Catholicism after the Reformation and the Wars of Religion? So like in the Catholic powers of Austria, France and Spain.--The Emperor&#39;s New Spy (talk) 01:18, 28 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Take a look through Category:Converts to Protestantism there may be some. Princess Irene of the Netherlands went the other way. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 05:30, 28 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Would you count Autumn Phillips as a "major royal figure"? I couldn't find anyone else using WP:CatScan. Gabbe (talk) 10:49, 28 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Manuel António of Portugal? Renée of France? Charles XIV John of Sweden? Adam Bishop (talk) 20:23, 28 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Of those, I think Charles XIV John of Sweden is the only one that fits the criteria in the question (post Wars of Religion era). Blueboar (talk) 20:56, 28 April 2013 (UTC)
