Love Hurts - Juana La Loca

Scenes from the movie 'Juana La Loca'
In 1496 Joanna, at the age of sixteen, was betrothed to Philip the Handsome, Duke of Burgundy (titular), in the region of Flanders in the Low Countries. The formal marriage took place on 20 October 1496 in Lier, north of present day Brussels. Between 1498 and 1507, she gave birth to six children: two emperors and four queens. Joanna's life with Philip was rendered extremely unhappy by his infidelity and her political insecurity. He consistently attempted to usurp her legal birthrights to power. This led in no small part to rumors of her insanity, stoked by reports of her depressive or neurotic acts while she was imprisoned or manipulated by her husband.

/Joanna of Castile (Spanish: Juana I de Castilla) (6 November 1479 -- 12 April 1555), nicknamed Joanna the Mad (Spanish: Juana la Loca), was the first Queen regnant of both the Crown of Castile (1504--55) and the Crown of Aragon (1516--55), a union which evolved into modern Spain.[1] Besides the kingdoms of Spain, she also ruled the kingdoms of Sardinia, Sicily, and Naples in Italy; a vast colonial empire in the Americas; and was Countess of Burgundy and the consort of the Burgundian Netherlands, thus initiating Spanish interests there. She was the last monarch of the House of Trastámara and her marriage to Philip the Handsome initiated the rule of the Habsburgs in Spain. Throughout most of her long reign she was under the regency of either her husband, father or son/.
