Catherine of Braganza

Catherine of Braganza (1638–1705), daughter of John IV of Portugal, married Charles II of England in 1662. Her dowry brought England Tangier, Bombay and trading privileges in the Portuguese Indies, sealing an alliance backing Portugal's independence from Spain. She suffered at least three miscarriages and bore no surviving children, placing her position under strain.

A Catholic, she was accused of treason during the Popish Plot of 1678–1679, but Charles defended her and she was never tried. After his death she returned to Portugal and twice served as regent for her brother Peter II, in 1701 and 1704–1705. She died in Lisbon, credited with popularising tea in England.
