Gioffre Borgia

Gioffre Borgia

Gioffre Borgia in Italian, or Jofré Borja in Catalan, (1482 – 1522) Prince of Squillace, was the youngest son of Pope Alexander VI, and Vannozza dei Cattanei, sibling to Lucrezia Borgia, Cesare Borgia and Giovanni Borgia, and half-brother to Isabella, Pier Luigi (Pedro Luis) and Girolamo, children of unknown mothers and Laura, Alexander's daughter by his mistress Giulia Farnese. He married Sancia (Sancha) of Aragon, daughter of Alfonso II of Naples. The marriage was an arranged one and Sancia slept with both of her husband’s older brothers, Cesare and Giovanni.

After Sancia's death he had a second marriage with Maria de Mila, and they had four children. He did not lead as prominent a life as his siblings.
