Why did Charles V have an affair with his grandmother?

Did you know that Charles I of #Spain, or #Charles V of the Holy Roman Empire, the son of the wrongly named #JoannatheMad and #PhiliptheHandsome, had an #affair with his grandmother and even had an illegitimate daughter? Today on Genius History, I’m going to tell you about the juiciest scandal in Spanish royal history. But first, let’s set the scene. The #Catholic Monarchs, Isabella and Ferdinand. Ferdinand was the King of Aragon and Isabella of Castile. When they married, they united their kingdoms, but each ruled their own territory. This marriage was not only a crucial political alliance for the formation of Spain but also a defining moment in consolidating power on the Iberian Peninsula, marking a before and after in the country’s history.
