Ippolito de' Medici (1511 – August 10, 1535) was the illegitimate only son of Giuliano di Lorenzo de' Medici. Ippolito was born in Urbino. His father died when he was only five (1516), and was subsequently raised by his uncle Pope Leo X and his cousin Giulio. He was a friend to, and possibly had a liaison with Giulia Gonzaga, the Countess of Fondi. In 1535 he acted as Florentine ambassador to emperor Charles V. Ippolito died from malaria in Itri, in southern Lazio, although there were rumours that he had been poisoned by Alexander, whose abuses he was going to denounce.
