Who is in the British royal family who will not be able to take the throne if they become a confirmed Catholic which is likely as one of their parents is a Catholic?

A number of the Royal family are Catholics, Lord Nicholas, whose mother Katherine, the Duchess of Kent converted to Catholicism in the 90's, converted in 2001 and became ineligible to inherit the throne. The Succession to the Crown Act of 2013 means that marrying a Catholic no longer invalidates your position as heir to the throne, however, the heir, himself (or herself) must still be Anglican. There was some news in the headlines that Kate Middleton was a Catholic when she married Prince William, the Prince of Cambridge, who at the moment is second in line to the throne after his father, Charles, the Prince of Wales; but I can find no truth to this rumor.
