Alonso Sánchez Coello (Spanish, 1531-1588) The Infanta Isabel Clara Eugenia, Detail, 1579 Isabella (1566-1633) was the daughter of Philip II of Spain by his third wife, Elisabeth of Valois. Isabella was around the age of thirteen at the time this was painted. In 1599 she married Albrecht of Austria and took over the regency of the Habsburg Netherlands on behalf of her father. Philip was close to both of his daughters, in particular to Isabella who was not married off young unlike the traditional custom with princesses.

Constance of Aragon's Crown - c. 1220-1222, gold and gilded silver filigree, glazes, pearls, and polychrome stones - in the Treasury of the Cathedral of Palermo, Sicily - Photos by Charles Reeza

As the result of arranged marriages negotiated by her brother, Constance became the Queen of Hungary at the age of 19, the Queen of Sicily at the age of 30 when she married King Frederick II (who was only 14 years old), Queen of Germany when she was 36 and Frederick was crowned King of Germany, and at the age of 41, when her husband became the Holy Roman Emperor, she was crowned Holy Roman Empress with this crown. She died of malaria at the age of 43 and was entombed in the Palermo Cathedral, in a Roman sarcophagus, wearing her crown.

Thread about Joanna of Castile: Part 8.2: “A Mother's Distress: Juana's Turbulent Departure from the Castle”

Guessing that her mother was trying every trick she could think of to keep her, Juana abandoned pleading and talking. Instead, she staged an astonishing display of histrionic, even hysterical, behaviour, indulging in tactics she would employ for the rest of her life whenever she was thwarted or powerless. She refused to eat, to talk, or to sleep, she attempted to force a ship’s captain to prepare to sail.

On a cold November night, Juana fled, half-clad, from the castle.

When she realised that Isabel had ordered that the gates be shut, she

“Remained in the outer precinct of the house all evening and all night and all the next day until the second hour in the humidity and night dew and without either hat or coat, during one of the coldest nights of the year so far, and not for a moment would she return to her room.”

She even threatened the bishop with death and torture for keeping her locked up.

Martire describes her prowling the outer precincts of the castle like “an African lion.”

The international fair was in full swing, with the saddle and leather workers engaging in trade close to the castle walls. Concerned that Juana’s departure would cost her authority and reputation, Isabel sent a series of high-ranking emissaries, including Cisneros, in vain attempts to persuade her to return inside.

In the end, Isabel had to come in person:

“With more effort and haste, and making longer days of it than I knew was good for my health.”

But Juana :

“Spoke to me so heatedly and with words so disrespectful and so far, beyond what a daughter should say to a mother, that had I not seen the state she was in I would not have tolerated it for a moment.”

We do not have Juana’s account. Did she, when arguing with her mother, venture into the darker territory of Isabel’s past? Might she even have referred to Isabel’s role in the descasamiento of Afonso V of Portugal and Juana (‘la Beltraneja’) of Castile when the war of the Castilian succession of 1475–1479 ended in their defeat? The heir to the throne of Castile, Enrique IV's daughter and heir, was still confined to monastic confinement in Portugal in 1503, but she would never give up her claim to the crown.

On 2 December 1503, Lope de Conchillos wrote to his uncle, Fernando's secretary, Miguel Pérez de Almazán, that Isabel was well but “very afflicted and tired” of the princess.

In March 1504, Juana was finally allowed to leave the country. In the end, her tantrums worked. The bishop of Catania, Diego Ramirez de Guzmán, was sent with her to strengthen the Spanish diplomatic presence in Brussels. Moreover, Diego Ramirez de Villaescusa, bishop of Málaga, did not accompany her.

Juana’s journey, from beginning to end, was a reversal of the first. There were no tears when she left Laredo, but Philip eagerly awaited her at Blankenburg/Blankenberge.

While Isabel wondered if she would stay as unhappy as she was while she was here, she was the talk of the Low Countries. Juana's decision to leave Castile would have big effects on her future and the kingdoms she ruled.

Catherine of Aragon is so wife by Mitski coded. Every time I listen to this song, Catherine consumes my every thought & it makes me want to commit war crimes

Incase you haven’t heard the song, I linked it up top!

Specifically;

“I cannot bear you a son, but I will try

For if I am not yours, what am I?”

&

“I daydream I’d give one a name of my own

For I, even I, even I am a loan

I have, I have, I watch a dream

Breaking, Breaking, Breaking me

Away from my cliff, I am looking down from”

I never watched the Spanish Princess, just some clips on Tiktok, but why is Lizzie so mean to Catherine... better question why the fl from the previous show is always the mean one for the next one?

Like Margaret Beaufort, Elizabeth Woodville, and Elizabeth of York.

Once you fill your quota from that show, prepare to be the most exaggerated evil mother in law for the next one!

Thread about Joanna of Castile: Part : 10 “A Storm of Jealousy: Juana and Philip's Turbulent Reunion"

By May 1504, Juana was in Burgundy. Juana’s reunion with Philip and the children was joyful.

But soon afterwards she suspected, or discovered, an affair between Philip and a noblewoman in her entourage:

“They say,” writes Martire, “that, her heart full of rage, her face vomiting fames, her teeth clenched, she rained blows on one of her ladies, whom she suspected of being the lover, and ordered that they cut her blond hair, so pleasing to Philip …”

Philip’s response was equally furious. He had “thrown himself” on his wife and publicly insulted her.

Sensitive and obstinate, “Juana is heartbroken … and unwell …”. Isabel “suffers much, astonished by the northerner’s violence.

Maximilian’s biographer, Wiesfecker, describes Juana’s response as:

"The symptom of a pathological, passionate, if not unfounded, Haßliebe, fomenting continual strife. "

Juana would have known for years about Philip's visits to the baigneries and his more casual relationships with women. However, this affair seemed to pose a direct challenge to her standing and dignity. Juana knew her faults and had tried to limit them. In 1500, after becoming princess, she had asked Isabel to send her an honest and prudent Spanish lady who:

“Knows how to advise her, and where she sees something out of order (‘deshordenado’) in her conduct could say so as servant and adviser but not as an equal because, even if the advice were good, if expressed in a disrespectful way it would create more anger in she to whom it was said than it would allow for correction.”
