Nevada Stoody Hayes (21 October 1870 – 11 January 1941), sometimes called Nevada of Braganza, was an American socialite who became the wife of Infante Afonso of Braganza, Duke of Porto, whose nephew, Manuel II, was the last king of Portugal. She was the Princess Royal of Portugal – if not, an Infanta of Portugal – but was never accepted as a member of the exiled Portuguese royal family, albeit her marriage to the Infante Afonso under the Portuguese law was legal.
