Career
The defeat of John of England, ensured that the title passed to the House of Lusignan, eventually falling to the House of Valois and to the crown of France. Her descendents remained prominent on both sides of the Channel, marrying into the Earls of Surrey, Arundel, and finally Kent where they inherited a claim to the English crown through Joan, Countess of Kent, daughter of Edward I of England.
