Princess Alexandra of Hanover was removed from the British line of succession because she became Catholic

Point de Vue magazine said: 19-year-old Princess was removed from the list of heirs to the British royal throne because she converted to Catholicism.

This 19-year-old princess is the only child of Prince Ernst August of Hanover and Princess Caroline of Monaco. She was born on July 20, 1999 in Vöcklabruck, Upper Austria.

Princess Alexandra joined Lutheranism with her whole family on September 19, 1999. Her mother, Princess Caroline, has always been a Catholic. Recently, Princess Alexandra decided to leave the Lutheran Church to join the Roman Catholic Church, following her mother.

Princess Alexandra's uncle is Albert II, Prince of Monaco. On her paternal side, she is a descendant of Queen Victoria of England and King Wilhelm II of the German Empire.

British succession law changed in 2011 under the Perth treaty. According to this law, it is forbidden for Catholics and other Protestant religions, not in communion with the Anglican Church, to become successors to the throne. Therefore, Princess Alexandra was automatically removed from the British royal succession list, although she still maintained the 12th position in the line of succession to the Monegasque throne, Monaco.
