Appearance edit

Catherine was of a very fair complexion, had blue eyes, and had a hair colour that was between reddish–blonde and auburn; these traits were present in her daughters and some of her descendants: notably Isabella of Castile and her daughters Catherine and Joanna. She was very tall for a woman of her time, measuring almost six feet and was of a very robust physical disposition. Problems with heavy drinking and appetite had her become obese and develop gout and other health related problems before old age.

This will be removed until a source can be found to authenticate it. I have seen so many of these paragraphs of the past stating the appearance of this family only to say that it was inherited by Isabella and her daughters without any sources backing it up. --The Emperor's New Spy (talk) 00:33, 11 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
