This mistress's name is unknown, but she came from a family of Norman counts in Sicily and had a relationship with the teenage Frederick between 1211 and 1212. Their relationship ended when King Frederick went to Germany and, in 1213, took up with another woman, a certain Adelaide. Besides Frederick of Pettorano, Frederick II probably named two other sons after himself: another illegitimate son, Frederick of Antioch, and a legitimate son by his wife Isabella. This last is known only by the initial "F." and died young.
