History was made this week in Westminster Cathedral in London. 

For the first time more than three centuries, a member of the British royal family had a Catholic funeral. 

Katharine, the Duchess of Kent, was married to Queen Elizabeth’s cousin. She died last week, aged 92. 

In 1994 , the Queen approved her decision to convert to Catholicism, making headlines at the time. 

King Charles attended the funeral mass, even though he’s supreme governor of the Anglican Church. 

What bigger story does this reveal about faith in modern Britain?
