5. Berenguela (1228–1288/89), a nun at Las Huelgas
6. Enrique
7. Felipe (1231–1274). He was promised to the Church, but was so taken by the beauty of Christina of Norway, daughter of Haakon IV of Norway, who had been intended as a bride for one of his brothers, that he abandoned his holy vows and married her. She died in 1262, childless.
