Lucrezia Borgia

She has primarily been remembered as a member of the scandalous Borgia family—the daughter of the corrupt and scheming Pope Alexander VI and the sister of the immoral and most likely murderous Cesare Borgia. Her family arranged several marriages for her that advanced their own political position. Several rumours have persisted throughout the years, primarily speculating as to the nature of the extravagant parties thrown by the Borgia family. Many of these concern allegations of incest, poisoning, and murder on her part. Lucrezia became very weak during her last pregnancy and fell seriously ill after the birth of her tenth child and died on 24 June 1519.
