About Beatrice of Burgundy countess consort of Alburquerque

Infanta Beatriz of Portugal (pron. IPA: [bi%C9%90't%C9%BEi%CA%83]; English: Beatrice or Beatrix) was the daughter of Portuguese King Peter I and a Castilian noblewoman called Inês de Castro that had arrived in Portugal as a maid of Constance of Penafiel, recently married to Pedro I (Heir Prince at the time).

Beatrice was born in Coimbra around the period of 1347-1351 and she became Countess of Alburquerque when she married Sancho, Count of Alburquerque. She died in 1381.

Beatrice's entitlement to be considered an Infanta of Portugal is debatable. Some historians consider her a natural daughter of Peter I, so the title Infanta of Portugal could never be attributed to her. Other opinions refer that after the death of Inês de Castro, ordered by Pedro's father King Afonso IV of Portugal, the Prince after inheriting the throne admitted that he had married Inês secretly, and because of that she was a lawful Queen of Portugal.

Of Inês de Castro, Peter I had two sons and a daughter:

(Infanta) Beatrice of Portugal (1347/1351-1381)

(Infante) John of Portugal (1349-1387)

(Infante) Denis of Portugal (1354-1397)

Life

Beatrice was born in Coimbra around the period of 1347–1351. Beatrice's entitlement to be considered an Infanta (Princess) of Portugal is debatable. Some historians consider her a natural daughter of Peter I, so the title Infanta of Portugal could never be attributed to her. Other opinions assert that the death of Inês de Castro was ordered by Peter's father King Afonso IV of Portugal; after inheriting the throne, the Prince admitted that he had married Inês secretly, and she was thus a lawful Queen of Portugal.

Beatrice became Countess of Alburquerque when she married Sancho Alfonso, 1st Count of Alburquerque (1373). They had two children: Don Fernando Sánchez, 2nd Count of Alburquerque, and Doña Eleanor of Alburquerque, who married Ferdinand I of Aragon. She died in 1381. Ancestry



Though having had a daughter from her half brother Fernando I de Portugal, Beatrice married later Sancho Alfonso de Castille, Conde de Albuquerque (son of Alfonso XI, of Castille and Leon) Therefore she is Beatrice of Albuquerque (Beatrice Of Alburquerque (nascida Of Portugal) ), Beatrice Of Portugal (nascida Of Burgundy Iš Portugalijos De Borgoña), Beatriz De Castile (nascida Portugal),Beatriz De Portugal Some information in these entries is not correct, namely her birthplace which was actualy Coimbra
