Juana de Castilla - Joanna of Castile

Joanna of Castile (1479-1555) :
Called Joanna the Mad (Juana La loca), daughter of Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile.Brothers: Isabella (Queen of Portugal), Prince John, Mary (Queen of Portugal) and Catherine (Queen of England).
Philip of Austria's wife and Queen of Spain,children:
Eleanor , Queen of Portugal and France
Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor
Isabella, Queen of Denmark
Ferdinand I, Holy Roman Emperor
Mary, Queen of Hungary and Bohemia
Catherine, Queen of Portugal
The death of her only brother John, Prince of Asturias, her eldest sister Isabella , Queen of Portugal, and then of the latter's infant son Miguel, Prince of Asturias, made Joanna the heiress of the Spanish kingdoms. Her passionate jealousy and constant suspicion of her husband made her notorious.After Philip's death , Joanna was imprisoned in Tordesillas in 1509 until his death in 1555. Some historians argue she suffered from either manic depression or clinical depression, worsened by her situation and the treatment she received from her husband and father, both of whom wanted her out of the way in order to assume rulership for themselves. Joanna only nominally remained Queen regnant of Spain until her death.

Good job providing the perfect life for each of your children and their marriages, Isabel and Ferdinand, yep it turned out great for all of them, especially Joanna and Catherine.

@mckfrr Joanna and Catherine, poor princesses, sacrificed for reasons of state.

Queen Elizabeth II is her direct descendant :) Elizabeth II of the U.K. descends from the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha family and that line descends from Isabella I and Ferdinand II beginning with the 1636 marriage of Princess Elisabeth Sophie of Saxe-Altenburg (1619-1680) to Ernest I, Duke of Saxe-Gotha (1601-1675) (Elisabeth Sophie being a descendant through Isabella and Ferdinand's daughter Joanna of Castile).

@lnvm y con todos los hijos emperadores y reyes, de ahí que todas las monarquías europeas tienen su ascendencia en Juana de Castilla o Juana la loca

@Fatadiluce Chiunque non impazzire con questo Filippo il Bello: Non so se l'ho detto bene in italiano. Pero vamos, que en español este Liotti está para volverse loca, o para ponerle un piso jajajaaa

@Angelsgirl1621 That would be interesting. I do not know sorry, hopefully someone can do

[MsPrenda1]

Joanna wanted to say not john, sorry

[MsPrenda1]

Legend or truth, I do not know but it says that John did not stop to bury the corpse of her husband for a long time and talked to her corpse

@Hariszain111 All the royal houses of Europe are descendants of Juana la Loca and therefore of the Catholic Kings

@MsPrenda1 Both sister had very bad luck in love and in life

[MsPrenda1]

as Juana la Loca and her sister Catherine of Aragon Henry VIII's wife seems to love their unfaithful husbands and Catherine died abandoned and Juana mad as a hatter, in short, that both had more horns than a bag of snails lol

Poor Juana/Joan she had such a hard life. I read a biography of her Juana the Mad. It was a very good read. It seems all Of Isabella's children suffered. Juan died of a fever he caught; Isabel died in childbirth as did Maria. Of course we all know what happened to Juana/Joan & Catalina/Katharine.
