**Francis FitzRoy, Duke of Ireland, KG.** (*Francis Henry Arthur; born 11 September, 1535*) is the Duke of Ireland and Lord High Admiral of England, succeeding King Henry IX. Francis is the illegitimate son of King Henry IX of England, when he was Henry FitzRoy, Duke of Richmond and Somerset, by his French childhood friend and mistress Claudette Bonheur.

Francis Henry Arthur, who was given the title Duke of Ireland at birth, was born at Durham House, London on 11 September 1535. The oldest of FitzRoy's children, He was the first-born son of Henry and the only son of Henry and Claudette. FitzRoy was 16 when Francis was born and the birth of Francis did cause scandal for King Henry VIII.

The baby was christened on 1 October, 1535 in the Church of England faith. His first name "Francis" was for Francis III, a best friend for his father and his Godfather, His middle name "Henry" for his father Henry FitzRoy and his second middle name "Arthur" for his great-uncle Arthur, the deceased husband of Katherine of Aragon and the older brother of his grandfather, Henry VIII.
