From Wikipedia
Jan Rubens (; Dutch: [ˈrybəns]; 1530–1587) was a Flemish lawyer and city administrator of Antwerp, then located in the Spanish Netherlands. A convert to Calvinism, he fled Antwerp with his family because of the suppression of Protestantism in the Spanish Netherlands and settled in Cologne. He was imprisoned in 1571 because of an affair with his client Anna of Saxony, the second wife of William I of Orange, the leader of the Protestant resistance against the Spanish king who ruled the Spanish Netherlands. He was later released but required to remain in Siegen. He returned to Cologne with his family only in 1578. Rubens is considered to be the natural father of Christine von Diez, the daughter of Anna of Saxony, who was born in Siegen in 1571. He is best known as the father of the famous painter Peter Paul Rubens, who was born in Siegen in 1577.
