'Carlos, Rey Emperador' is a Spanish TV series about the life of Charles of Habsburg, Holy Roman Emperor and King of Spain, the most powerful man in his time.

I own nothing.
If you like the video, watch the series on RTVE.

Certainly, losing her own son without husband was too much for her. I think, the fact that Carlos was not there when Isabella needed him the most partly explains why he was so devastated when she left him forever, and why he swore not to take a wife again.
Apparently she had some pregnancy related infection that caused her death.

Hard choice in an age when men could have as many mistresses as they wanted and woman could be executed for having a lover. Plus women were brought up in the belief that having as many children as possible was their purpose. Take all that away it would be hard not to.want to be close to ones spouse in any age.
And considering also that they loved each other very ver much.
I thought the pain was cause by number of time she pregnant but also miscarriage/disbirth during her life
I think Isabel also had malaria, she certanly suffered from tertian fevers that became chronic later in her life.
ilargitxo2 Maleria isn’t exactly a crazy supposition. Considering Carlos would eventually die from maleria.
@ilargitxo2 Yes, malaria in Europe. At the time, it wasn't that uncommon, especially in the southern Iberian Peninsula. It is actually very likely in the Empress' case, and several biographers agree on it. Historical medicine and the medical history of the great and powerful in our past include a lot of supposing and many educated guesses, but malaria is a very good fit in this instance.
@ilargitxo2 Racist? I'm from Portugal, in the Iberian Peninsula, and I happen to be a doctor, fresh out of medschool. Yes, there was mallaria here, especially in the southernmost part of the Peninsula. I am aware that she died of childbirth complications, still it looks like she had malaria. Malaria has an acute and a chronic presentation. Tertian fever is a classical presentation of the latter. Isabel of Portugal is a widely know historical figure in the Iberian Peninsula and I happen to own a couple of biographies both on her and on her husband. This happens to be a subject I'm highly familiar with.
Now, exactly why does my previous comment sound racist?
(Edited for typos)
@ilargitxo2 She did not die of Malaria, she died of childbirth complications. If you care to look a bit more into it, you'll find that the empress was sick before the birth, and went into labor early in the pregnancy.
It's fine. Just be careful when throwing "racist" at someone.
@ilargitxo2 I never contradicted you on her cause of death. I did it on the existence of Malaria in Europe.
