Before Alfonso married Lucrezia, her brother Cesare had been impressed by his handsome looks and kind nature. This changed in 1498 however, when a marriage between Lucrezia and Alfonso was arranged by her father, Pope Alexander VI, to secure a partnership between the Papacy and Naples. The two had a happy marriage, and Lucrezia paid Cesare less romantic attention, which stoked a resentment against Alfonso.[1]
Wanting Lucrezia for himself, Cesare had his thugs attack Alfonso.[2] Alfonso recovered from his wounds over the following weeks,[1] and in response, sent his own men after Cesare.[2] The latter then ordered Micheletto Corella to murder Alfonso.
