Aveline de Forz (20 January 1259–10 November 1274), Countess of Aumale and Lady of Holderness, was a British noble.
Aveline was born at Burstwick in Holderness to William de Forz, 4th Earl of Albemarle and Isabella de Fortibus, Countess of Devon. In 1269, she married Edmund Crouchback, the second son of Henry III of England,[1] at Westminster Abbey. Given that Aveline was only ten years old, the marriage was not consummated until 1273, when she turned fourteen.[2] Her last surviving brother, Thomas, died in 1269, and she inherited his titles, becoming Countess of Aumale.
On 2 February 1273, Aveline inherited the land formerly held by her father and briefly by her elder brother, but she died the following year, and was buried in Westminster Abbey.[1]
