What is Boris Johnson’s religion?
Boris Johnson is an Anglican, part of the Church of England. He was, however, baptised as Catholic.
It is thought that the UK Prime Minister abandoned his mother’s Catholicism and was confirmed as Anglican while at Eton.
In order to marry in a Catholic church, it’s possible that Boris Johnson could have had his two previous marriages recognised as annulled.
