∙ 14y agoHenry VIII (1491 - 1547) had two sisters who survived to adulthood, the oldest being Margaret Tudor (1489 - 1541), who married James IV of Scotland, and was the grandmother of Mary, Queen of Scots.
His youngest sister was Princess Mary Rose Tudor (1496 - 1533), who was apparently much favoured. The warship Mary Rose was named after her.
