Blanche of Navarre, Queen of France

Blanche of Navarre (French: Blanche d'Évreux; c. 1331 – 5 October 1398) was a Navarrese infanta who was briefly Queen of France as the second wife of King Philip VI from 29 January until 22 August 1350. Blanche d'Évreux was intended to become the bride of John, Duke of Normandy, heir of the throne of France — whose first wife had just died of the Black Death— but eventually married his father, King Philip. Only a few months after their wedding, Philip died prematurely and Blanche found herself a widow. Read more on Wikipedia
