Henry Seymour, Lord Beauchamp (c. 1626 – 14 March 1654) was an English nobleman, third son of William Seymour, 2nd Duke of Somerset.
He had two elder brothers, but they both died unmarried in their twenties, so that in 1646, when he was about twenty, Henry became heir to his father and took his courtesy title of Lord Beauchamp.
On 28 June 1648, he married Mary Capell at Hadham Parva in Hertfordshire; they had one son and one daughter. Like his father, he was a Cavalier, for which he was imprisoned in the Tower of London during the Commonwealth, 9 April to 9 September 1651, being released on £10,000 bond. He died 14 March 1654 and was buried at Bedwyn Magna 30 March, having died at "Tilsy" according to the burial record in the parish register.
His widow married in 1657 Lord Herbert, later created the 1st Duke of Beaufort.
