Catherine Tudor (2 February 1503 Tower of London) was the eighth and last child of King Henry VII of England and Elizabeth of York. She died shortly after her birth.
Elizabeth of York did not survive long after Catherine'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.
Catherine's older siblings included Arthur, Margaret, the future Henry VIII, Elizabeth, Mary, and Edmund, Duke of Somerset.
