Here is some information about the children of Henry VIII (1491 - 1547):

Mary I was in her 31st year, Elizabeth I in her 14th year and Edward VI in his 10th year, when their father, Henry VIII died.

Mary I (1516 - 1558) by Catherine of Aragon - first wife (1485 - 1536)

Elizabeth I (1533 - 1603) by Anne Boleyn - second wife (c1501-07 - 1536)

Edward VI (1537 - 1553) by Jane Seymour - third wife (c1504-09 - 1537)

Catherine of Aragon did give birth to six children, but apart from Mary, they were stillborn or died within a few weeks. Anne Boleyn had at least two miscarriages.

Anne of Cleves (1515 - 1557)

Catherine Howard (c1520 - 1542)

Katherine Parr (c1512 - 1548)

did not bear Henry any children.

Henry also had an acknowledged illegitimate son:

Henry Fitzroy (1519 - 1536) Duke of Richmond (by Henry's mistress Elizabeth Blount)

There may have been other illegitimate children, possibly by Mary Boleyn, (and in particular her son, Henry Carey) another of Henry's mistresses and sister of Anne Boleyn; but they have not been confirmed or acknowledged, probably because of the timing of the relationship between Henry and Mary Boleyn.

No.

Answer: Mary, Elizabeth and Edward were alive when Henry VIII died. They were his children born to three of his six wives. Each child succeeded to the throne in the following order: Edward, Mary, Elizabeth. It is not possible to say whether his illegitimate children were all alive when he died. We simply don't know how many children there were.
