His third queen, Jane Seymour, gave birth to Edward who eventually became King Edward. He was Henry's only legitimate son.
It is known that Henry also fathered a son by Bessie Blount but as this son was illegitimate he could not take his place in the line of succession. He was, however, given the title of Duke of Richmond (if memory serves me correctly).
There may well have been other illegitimate sons.
