Philippa of Clarence (16 August 1355 – 5 January 1382) was the suo jure Countess of Ulster.
Biography
She was born at Eltham Palace in Kent on 16 August 1355, the only child of Lionel of Antwerp, 1st Duke of Clarence, and Elizabeth de Burgh, 4th Countess of Ulster.[1] Her father was the third son, but second son to survive infancy, of King Edward III of England and Philippa of Hainault.[2]
Philippa married Edmund Mortimer, 3rd Earl of March, in 1368 at the age of thirteen in the Queen's Chapel at Reading Abbey,[1] an alliance that would have far-reaching consequences in English history. Her cousin, King Richard II, remained childless, making Philippa and her descendants next in line to the throne until his deposition. In the Wars of the Roses, the Yorkist claim to the crown was based on descent from Edward III through Philippa,[3], her son Roger Mortimer, and granddaughter Anne Mortimer, who married a son of the 1st Duke of York.
Philippa died in 1382, and was buried at Wigmore Abbey, Herefordshire.
Marriage and issue
Her children with Edmund Mortimer were as follows:
