Angelitha Wass


Angelitha Wass was a Hungarian lady's maid of Anne of Foix-Candale, Queen consort of Bohemia and Hungary, and later a mistress of Anne's son, Louis II Jagiellon, King of Hungary.

Life

She became pregnant by King Louis and gave birth to an illegitimate son, János Wass, self-titled "Prince John". John was never officially recognized as the son of the king. His and his mother's names appear in the sources of the Chamber in Pozsony as either János Wass or János Lanthos, which could refer to the fact that he used his mother's name first, then that of his occupation.
Angelitha Wass married a Hungarian nobleman but did not have any further issue. She died as a widow.
