Nobility. He was the eldest son and heir of his parents Gaston IV Count of Foix and Bigorre and Queen Leonore de Navarra. He held the titles of Vicomte de Castelbon and Prince de Viana. He died from wounds he received in a jousting tournament. As he died before his parents, he never was Count of Foix or King of Navarra but he is sometimes listed as Gaston V de Foix.
