Yolande of Aragon or Violante of Sicily (Kingdom of Sicily – 1428), Italian: Jolanda d'Aragona, Catalan: Violant d'Aragó, Spanish: Violante de Aragón, illegitimate but legitimated daughter of King Martin I of Sicily and countess of Niebla. She was the member of House of Barcelona. Eugénie de Montijo (1826–1920), the last Empress consort of the French was the 13th descendant of Yolande of Aragon, countess of Niebla.[1]
Life
She was the only daughter of King Martin I of Sicily and Agatuccia Pesce. She was born out of wedlock in Sicily. Before Blanche I of Navarre's having arrived in Sicily to get married to her father, king Martin the Young sent her and her younger brother Fadrique (illegitimate son of King Martin I of Sicily and Tarsia Rizzari) to the Aragonese court for his mother, queen Maria de Luna's taking care of her illegitimate grandchildren.[2] She got married twice. First husband was Enrique Pérez de Guzmán, 2nd Count de Niebla but she was repudiated and the marriage was annulled. This marriage remained childless.[3] Her second spouse was Martín Fernández de Guzmán, the son of Alvár Pérez de Guzmán, 6th lord of Orgaz. She gave birth to three daughters.[4] She died in 1428.
Her siblings were: Peter of Sicily (the only son of King Martin I of Sicily and Queen Maria I of Sicily), Martin of Aragon, Heir of Sicily (the only son of King Martin I of Sicily and Queen Blanche I of Navarre), Fadrique (illegitimate son of King Martin I of Sicily and Tarsia Rizzari).
