Catherine of Braganza (Catarina de Bragança, in Portuguese) (25 November 1638 – 31 December 1705) is a Portuguese Infanta and the queen consort of Charles II of England, Scotland and Ireland.

She marries the king in 1662.

In the beginning of her tenure as queen consort, she is not popular with the English people, due to her Catholic religion and inability to speak the English language.

Part of her dowry are the port cities of Tangier and Bombay.

As none of her pregnancies produce surviving offspring, the throne passes to Charles' brother James, Duke of York.

Her husband keeps many mistresses and fathers numerous illegitimate offspring which he acknowledges.
