How many marriages?
[edit]Maximilian "with his second wife Bianca Maria Sforza" or "Maximilian's third marriage, to Bianca Maria Sforza". Which is the correct one? Carlotm (talk) 02:26, 9 February 2016 (UTC)
- Maximilian's first wife was Mary of Burgundy, with whom he had three children. After her death from a riding accident in 1482, he was married to Anne of Brittany by proxy in December 1490—they never lived together. The marriage was annulled by the Pope in early 1492 after she was forced by Charles VIII of France to repudiate the contract so he could marry her himself. Maximilian married Bianca Maria Sforza in 1493. He was technically married three times, but Bianca Maria was considered his second wife. I'll edit the text to avoid confusion.
