In 1553, Lady Jane Grey was declared queen of England after the death of King Edward VI. However, her reign lasted only nine days as she was deposed by Mary I, the daughter of Henry VIII, who then ascended to the throne. Mary I's reign marked the return of Catholicism in England after a period of Protestant reform.

You're probably thinking of Lady Jane Grey, who ruled England for just nine days in 1553.
