Bonne of Artois (1396 – 15 September 1425,[1]Dijon) was Countess consort of Nevers by marriage to Philip II, Count of Nevers, which left her a widow at 18 or 19, and Duchess consort of Burgundy by marriage to Philip III, Duke of Burgundy, popularly known as Philip the Good. She served as regent of the County of Nevers during the minority of her son from 1415 until 1424.[2]
Their eldest son Charles succeeded as Count of Nevers. However, due to the child's minority, Bonne acted as regent from 1415 until 1424.[2] She succeeded her aunt Jeanne d'Artois as Mademoiselle de Dreux and as Dame de Houdain.
Bonne is sometimes confused with Philip's biological aunt, also named Bonne of Burgundy (1379–1399) in part due to the papal dispensation required for the marriage which made no distinction between a marital aunt and a biological aunt.
The marriage of Bonne and Philip lasted less than a year and produced no children.[1] Bonne died on 15 September 1425 in Dijon.[1]
