Let's assume that João II of Portugal's wife dies of something childbirth related in 1475 (her son also dies). She gave birth to her only surviving son, Affonso on 18 May, her father-in-law married Juana la Beltraneja on 30 May 1475. So, lets assume Leonor dies AFTER La Beltraneja is unavailable. Neither Castile nor Aragon have infantas available (unless you count the Neapolitan branch which Fernand and his dad both despised). João II is not only a widower, but a childless widower.
Any thoughts of who he would remarry to? Fernando and @isabella might insist on João II remarrying to their daughter, although Isabel Jr is all of 5yo in 1475, and once Affonso V is divorced from La Beltraneja, the Portuguese succession starts looking even thinner.
So...who would be in the running?
