Nope the Protestants removed them. The deuterocanocial books accepted by the Catholic Church, Orthodox Church and the Coptic Church. Even the earliest translations of the King James Bible had them.
And the justification of these books go back to the early church “The teachers of Judaism refuse to admit that the Septuagint is correct. They attempt to frame another translation of the Scriptures. Observe that they have taken away many Old Testament Scriptures, by which proof of Christ’s crucifixion is set forth”- St. Justin the Martyr 150 AD. The Apostoles when they were preaching the Old Testament used the Spetuagint version which includes the deuterocanonical books.
One of the earliest Christian documents the Diadache sites Sirach 4:31 as scripture.
Saint Polycarp in 135 AD cites Tobit 4:10 and Tobit 12:9 in an epistle to Philippi.
Saint Augustine in 397 AD included 1 and 2 Maccabees, Tobit, Judith, Wisdom of Solomon and Ecclesiasticus as canon.
So once again as a Protestant you have to say the apostles and the early Church were wrong if you believe they should have been removed.
