Jeanne's mother Isabella had previously been the queen-consort of Richard II of England, a childless marriage. Jeanne's father Charles would later remarry and become the father of the Louis XII of France through his third wife, Marie of Cleves. She had no siblings as her mother died giving birth to Jeanne.
In 1424 at Blois, Jeanne married John II of Alençon, but they remained childless. She died in 1432, leaving him free to later marry Marie of Armagnac.
