Ramon Berenguer was the son of Alfonso II, Count of Provence, and Garsenda, Countess of Forcalquier. After his father's death (1209), Ramon's mother sent him to the Templar castle of Monzón in Aragon. He was accompanied by his cousin King James I of Aragon whose life was also under threat. He left Monzon around 1217 to claim his inheritance, which included the county of Forcalquier--inherited from his mother.
On 5 June 1219, Ramon Berenguer married Dulce of Leon, Alfonso IX of Leon and Theresa of Leon. They had three daughters who reached adulthood, all of whom were well educated and married kings.
