How many children did Henry VIII have including both legitimate and bastard children?
Henry VIII had three legitimate children: Mary I, Elizabeth I and Edward VI, and one recognised illegitimate child: Henry Fitzroy, Duke of Richmond. There is controversy regarding the Carey children, Mary Boleyn's children Henry and Catherine, and also others like John Perrot, Thomas Stukeley and Ethelreda Malte - see http://www.elizabethfiles.com/elizabeth-is-early-life-illegitimate-siblings/4797/

your welcome
on Anne’s wikipedia is says she had three pregnancies after Elizabeth, which is what i had recalled reading in fiction and nonfiction….but i thought on here Claire you had said she only had three pregnancies in total?
great job with this information
You have done a great job with this website, Claire, thank you for all this amazing information.
But they were all deformed other than Elizabeth.
