Katherine Tudor

Who was Katherine Tudor?

Katherine Tudor was the seventh and last child of King Henry VII of England and Queen Elizabeth of York. She was born at the Tower of London and died shortly after her birth.

Her mother did not survive long after Katherine's death. Still grieving for her eldest son Arthur, who had died shortly before she became pregnant, Elizabeth succumbed to a post-pregnancy infection on 11 February 1503, her thirty-seventh birthday.

Katherine's older siblings were Arthur, Margaret, Henry, Elizabeth, Mary, and Edmund Tudor.
