She was a daughter of the Serbian prince Lazar and Milica Nemanjić.
There are almost no historical sources about her. There is a text in the Boril obituary concerning the consorts of Ivan Shishman:
Based on that text, the historian Plamen Pavlov has suggested a new theory about the empress. He assumes that since Lazar had no wife named Desislava, it is possible that the first wife of Ivan Shishman was Maria and Dragana was called Kira Maria, unless there is a mistake in the paragraph.
lieutenant is possible that she was the mother of Fruzhin and Alexander.
