Excerpt from The Rise of the Spanish Empire in the Old World and in the New, Vol. 2: The Catholic Kings
In 1418, just at the time that Alvaro was rising into prom inence, the king had been married to his cousin Maria, daughter of his uncle and former regent, Ferdinand of Ante quera; and three years previously his sista' (also named Maria) had wedded Alfonso the Magnanimous; the two branches of the house Of Trastamara which occupied the thrones of Aragon and Castile were thus closely connected by a double tie. In 1425 a son, Henry, was born to the king of Castile and his Aragonese wife; but no other children followed, and in 1445 the queen died. It is not necessary to believe the assertions of his enemies that Alvaro was responsible for her demise, but he evidently felt that it was quite within his province to select her successor. Without consulting the king, who apparently desired to wed a French princess, he calmly arranged a marriage for him with Isabella, a cousin of Afionso the African, king Of Portugal, and forced his master to conclude it in August, 1447. The motives that inspired the Constable to seek this alliance were prob ably almost entirely personal; but the match Shows that.
