Constance was not a princess. She was a Duke's daughter, hence Lady
Constance Plantagenet (though I'm not sure the surname was in use yet).
According to ES, she married Thomas le Despenser. No other marriage is
recorded in that volume.

Isabel was a princess -- sort of -- being the daughter of Pedro the Cruel,
King of Castille and Leon, by his mistress (whom he later claimed he had
married -- but no record of this marriage has ever been discovered) Maria de
Padilla.
