He was the youngest son of Jean's third wife, Berengaria, daughter of
Alfonso IX the Slobberer, king of León & Berengaria I, queen of
Castile.
Jean's first marriage (at Tyre on 14 September 1210) was to Maria 'la
Marquise' de Montferrat, queen of Jerusalem, daughter of Margrave
Conrad of Montferrat & Isabelle d'Anjou, queen of Jerusalem. By her he
had only one child, Iolanda-Isabella, mentioned before.
His second marriage (by May 1214) was to Rita, daughter of Leon II,
king of Armenia. She died in 1219, and Jean married Berengaria at
Toledo in 1224. Louis 'of Acre', who became viscount of Beaumont by
right of his wife, was their fourth child, third son.
