[1] I know this is probably the unlikeliest match here, given Angoulême's personal dislike Fernando VII, but in lieu of any other Catholic kings available (plus, she's at least a better match genetically than his niece - first cousin once removed instead), I figured it's worth a shot.
[2] Wasn't sure who these boys would marry with them being "lower" in the succession than OTL. Figure it will depend on when they marry (since once Chartres and Henri start sprogging off, their prospects go down - Condé will will his estates to Henri instead of Aumale (he originally intended to do this, then the July Revolution intervened AIUI). Probably second-tier royals (cousins and nieces to kings rather than daughters)

Arthur's survival means Henry VII and Liz of York don't try for another child, thus Liz doesn't die in 1503. Henry VII reigns until 1511, dying from cancer, the same type that kills his grandson and namesake. Arthur reigns as King from 1511 to his death in 1537, as year after Catherine dies.

Main POD is Arthur Tudor surviving. Fast forward to 1570s and instead of becoming elective the Crown of Poland-Lithuania (by election) comes to the Catholic Tudor Kings of England. Polish Crown after that is nominally elective but stays with the Tudors/their descendants. Fast Forward to 1740s and Tudors face a succession crisis. Until then England had managed to keep the Catholics and Protestants mostly in peace but both England and English colonies were growing very Protestant (Colonies more so than England itself but in England it would be within 60%-40%). But with the death of the King the Protestant dominated Parliament would invite the Protestant King of Scotland for England, Ireland and the Colonies. A Tudor Duke in Poland would declare himself king with support from the Irish and Polish Nobility, while the former King's daughter would have the support of some colonies, most Catholics in England, Lithuanian and Ruthenian nobles. She would win in Poland with some support by Frederick the Great of Prussia but lose in Britain and colonies. After her the crown would fall to Hanoverians who promised to respect the Sejm and their catholic faith. George I (basically OTL George III) would be recognized by the American rebels as their King in TTL American War of Independence (making US basically a dominion). And by 1790s a Glorious Revolution analogue would occur (the original Stuart takeover was also partially the Glorious Revolution, I suppose. That and the English Civil War) allowing them to reclaim England and Ireland (Stuarts would still keep Scotland). Catholics and those married to Catholics are not barred from succession. In place of the Act of Union (thought Stuarts would have also done basically the OTL one, forming Great Britain) the United Commonwealth would be founded as a Federation and a nominally elective monarchy, combining America, Ireland, England, Poland and Lithuania. Also the French Revolutionary Wars would end by early 1800s and the French 1st Republic would survive (as a result, the House of Orleans are never Kings). Brazil becomes an empire but remains in Personal union with Portugal under Dom Pedro. Succession goes mostly OTL to let "Pedro III and VI" on the throne. Spanish Glorious Revolution of 1868 would still happen, removing the Bourbons but Spain would be partitioned into a Savoyard Aragon and a Hohenzollern Castile/Spain.

* Basically a female George V. But with a somewhat later marriage. Perhaps Albert Victor (or an ATL equivalent) surviving somewhat longer but without issue could explain a marriage that would lead to personal union being allowed.
** Basically Pedro de Alcântara, Prince of Grão-Pará. The children are mostly based on his OTL children but aged up 9 years.
*** Partially based on Pedro Gastão.
**** OTL person but with a much more prestigious marriage.
***** Is not a pretender to France due to no Orleans Monarchy.
****** No world wars ITTL (yet) and also no "Germany", Prussia remains a monarchy. She would be the daughter of Wilhelm, German Crown Prince who OTL married an American Soldier in 1949.
******* 1. Denmark keeps Norway with the lack of Napoleonic Wars. 2. Also without the Napoleonic Wars, Bernadottes do not become the Royal Family of Sweden. Frederick's OTL wife therefore doesn't exist. I think this marriage is a suitable enough replacement.

No need for Ferdinand to remarry here. Little Isabella will marry either Miguel or John III of Portugal
 
No need for Ferdinand to remarry here. Little Isabella will marry either Miguel or John III of Portugal
True, but he may see a golden opportunity for the House of Trastamara to be saved. That and also his nobles might not be content with a young girl as their heir and so may pressure Ferdinand into remarrying.
