Juana is played by Lola Herrera. A comedic take on the Christopher Columbus story, which would spawn later movies like the next film, Juana la loca… de vez en cuando. Juana was played by Beatriz Elorrieta, although I am unclear if that is she in these photos or the actress playing Isabella of Castile, Fiorella Faltoyano. I tried to watch this series about Queen Isabella of Castile and briefly snarked it mid-way through this post , but noped out due to the deeply shitty costumes someday I hope to get Trystan or Sarah to do a real review.
The third season focuses on the marriage of Juana and Philip and the later life of Isabella and Ferdinand and their children. Juana is played by Irene Escolar.
The older Juana is played by Laia Marull. As really happened, Juana and Philip ended up in England briefly their ship was blown off course ; in the TV version, Juana Alba Galocha is randomly bitchy and slutty and wears years-out-of-date costumes.
My favorite adaptation is a historical fantasy AU novel, very loosely inspired by Isabella and Juana. Names, countries, plot are all changed around, and Ista Juana and Iselle Isabella are flipped as mother and daughter. I LOVE that series!
I just finished the second book and omgggggg…. Hello fellow fan! I loved the Former novel. Juana was said to have opened her husband's casket to embrace him and kiss him. Unfortunately, Juana's husband Philip had spread rumours about her madness when he was still alive and her behaviour after his death may have reinforced these rumours.
Charles forbade Juana any visitors. She died there on 12th April , Good Friday, at the age of Juana was laid to rest in Granada's La Capilla Real, the resting place of her husband and parents.
Juana's maternal grandmother, Isabella of Portugal, supposedly also suffered from mental illness and was sent to a convent. It is thought that Juana may have suffered from a wide range of mental illness, including schizophrenia and depression. However, it does seem that her behaviour escalated in response to the deaths of her siblings, her nephew, her mother and her husband. She was also sent, or perhaps banished, to a convent by her son and not allowed any visitors for the rest of her life.
So was Juana mad, or was she the victim of ruthless individuals in her life? What do you think? Heather R. Darsie lives in the United States with her family and three parrots. She works in the legal field, with a focus on children. Heather has always loved history. She first became acquainted with Elizabeth I when she was in middle school and chose to write a book report about her. Since then, she has always held an interest in the Renaissance and its numerous enigmatic citizens, with particular focus on the history of England and Italy.
She is currently working on a book on the heraldry of Tudor women and is also researching Anne of Cleves. You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the link in the footer of our emails.

People did not know how to treat mental illness then and in parts of the world now,which is sad.
I believe it was a combination of both. Juana may have suffered from a form of depression. From most of what I have read about Queen Joanna, it seems to me she may have suffered from bipolar disorder.
Hello Dyarn. Whilst I fully agree with all the other suggestions, I actually do have bi-polar and although I can say I am happily married…. Terri Lee Veitch X. An easy way for husbands, had been to declare that wives as mad. Wives the ushered into convent. I do not believe Juana was mad. Why should this be seen as evidence of madness? I have actually read the original Spanish sources on Juana, and she definitely had issues, even Isabella herself recognized it, which does not mean she was completely out of her mind.
As for KoA and Mary, can you explain why you think they were mentally ill? As I recall her mother had her tortured when she began showing signs of religious skepticism as a child. Is Isabella the best judge of this? I agree with Conor. She was a woman that is why men around her did not want to see her rule especially during that time period. Just like Queeb Mary of Scotland and Queen Elizabeth of England men tried to rule either through them or despised them.
In the culture and history of Spain a woman ruler was never popular the only reason Isabel of Castile survived the men removing her from power is because they didnt like her half brother King Enrique Henry because he favored the various faith and did not stand for the Catholic faith of the time versus Isabel who stood by the Church and wanted to fight to gain Granada.
Isabel wanted a unified Spain. But in when King Alfonsi XIII died his daughter Isabel II came into power and once again her advisors tried to rule over her and there were riots in the streets and people saw Spain as weak. This is just the history of a masculine society not willing to accept women.
I do not believe she was mentally sick , probably she was passionate and emotional but who is not if relatives so close to her were dying and her husband was adulterous? Probably she had a temper but that is not a sign of madness I would like to remove the description of loca Which is unfair and offensive there is not evidence of madness in her personality only a queen who behaved like a emotional woman!!!!!
I agree. I think she suffered from depression. Her mother did her in when she declared her unfit to rule as queen. Probably manipulated by Ferdinand. If it was, then she was definitely mentally ill. She may have been able to function, and she seems to have been brilliant and gifted, but she was mentally ill if the story is true.
Being unwilling to be parted from a deceased loved-one is fits with any of the first four stages of grief before the last acceptance and could also reflect natural urge to experience control by an individual who is regularly deprived of it. There is no reputed psychiatrist today who would diagnose anyone with a serious mental disorder because of non-hazardous aberrant behaviour exhibited solely during grief.
Side note: end of life facilities for children may have special cold rooms so that parents can spend time with their child after the child has passed. This is because the desire to not be immediately separated from the deceased loved-one is normal, not pathological, despite generally seeming odd to our society. Mentally ill for mourning your dead husband?? Come on! I guess being in love is being mentally ill then.
Thank you. Plus she was hung from the rafters by her feet as a child because she voiced her difference of opinion. Back into those times one did not question elders especially on religion. But think of the effects that had on her to be treated that way.
If she was emotional that is why. Absolutely during that time women were submissive to men. Men plot against her Juana was a strong women Now days her supposed behavior would be Acceptable I would not put up with an adulterous husband she was suppose to ignore his tendencies I think this is a classic case of male rules and a plot in those days the royals Were told explicitly that displays of emotions was not acceptable so she was named mad or loca which is unfair considering that she went through a sequence of unfortunate events.
Was that story true? If so, then she was mentally ill, please see above. Also her mother, Isabella , had tortured her as a girl, by suspending her with weights on her feet as punishment for questioning the Catholic religion, and for not wanting to go along with the Catholic practices of the time.
Her son later sought control and power by not only locking her up in exile, but also by ordering caretakers to not speak to Joanna. No one visited, no one spoke to her. She sat, immobile. Who would not be sad and depressed at such betrayals and such loneliness.
Yes her husband and son undermined her horribly. Her own mother had done as well,in addition to abusing her badly physically. It was brutal. And the times were brutal. Are you seriously stating the events on a TV show as actual historical fact?
