Edward of Norfolk or Edward of Brotherton or Edward Plantagenet (c.1320 – before 9 August 1334), was the only son of Thomas of Brotherton, and a grandson of King Edward I of England.

Born about 1320, Edward was the only son of Thomas of Brotherton, eldest son of King Edward I by his second marriage to Margaret of France (1279?–1318), the daughter of King Philippe III of France (d.1285).[1] His mother was Alice Hales (d. in or before 1330), daughter of Sir Roger Hales of Hales Hall in Loddon in Roughton, Norfolk, by his wife Alice.[2][3][1] He had two sisters:

Shortly after 29 May 1328, at Hereford, Edward of Norfolk married Beatrice de Mortimer, daughter of Roger de Mortimer, 1st Earl of March, by Joan de Joinville (d.1356), daughter and coheiress of Sir Peter de Joinville.[7] The occasion was a double wedding at which the bride's sister, Agnes Mortimer, married Laurence Hastings, later 1st Earl of Pembroke.[8] The celebrations were accompanied by a magnificent tournament, and were attended by Edward III and his mother, Isabella of France, who was by then the mistress of the bride's father, Roger de Mortimer.[1][8] There was no issue of the marriage,[7] and two years after the ceremony Roger de Mortimer was hanged at Tyburn as a common criminal.[8]

Edward of Norfolk died before 9 August 1334, predeceasing his father.[7]

His widow married, before 13 September 1337, Sir Thomas de Brewes (d. 9 or 16 June 1361), son and heir of Sir Peter de Brewes of Tetbury, Gloucestershire, and his wife Agnes de Clifford, by whom she had three sons and three daughters.[9][7]

After the death of Thomas of Brotherton about 20 September 1338,[10] Edward of Norfolk's elder sister, Margaret, succeeded to the earldom of Norfolk.[9]
