After the death of Philip II in 1598, his fate did not change and the Duke of Lerma ordered the viceroy of Naples, Fernando Ruiz de Castro Andrade and Portugal to continue the regime established until then. Finally in 1602 Joan herself wrote a letter to Philip III in which she begged him for a certain economic independence that would allow him not to depend on the viceroy of Naples for everything. The monarch acceded to the request and indicated an income of 3,000 ducats and a dowry of 60,000.With this dowry, the young lady married on 14 June 1603 the young Sicilian nobleman Francis Branciforte, to whom, on the occasion of such a high bond, her parents gave the titles of Prince of Pietraperzia and Marquis of Militello.[3] [4]The marriage took place in the Royal Palace of Naples and included various feasts among which a carousel was held.

He founded the Church of Santa Marry Victory in Naples and donated it, together with the convent, to the Theatine Fathers.[5]

Juoanna was widowed in 1622 and finally died in 1630.[3][6]
