As the first-born daughter, she was the heiress to the throne until the birth of her brother, the Infante Fernando de la Cerda. Her paternal grandparents were King Ferdinand III of Castile and his first wife Elisabeth of Swabia and her maternal grandparents were King James I of Aragon and his second wife Yolande of Hungary.
