In the books
Edit
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, Mhaegen appears but is not named. She is killed by Allar Deem, a goldcloak sent by Lord Slynt, when she tries to protect her baby daughter. She was not explicitly shown to be killed by the goldcloaks in the TV series, thus her status in the TV continuity is uncertain.
