Este paso diplomático no fue prudente y finalmente Blanca casó con Sancho III el 30 de enero de 1151 en Calahorra.</p><p> </p><p>Fruto de este matrimonio tendrían como hijo a Alfonso VIII de Castilla futuro rey de Castilla.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> Sepulcro</p><p> </p><p>Fueenterrada en el Monasterio de Santa María la Real de Nájera.</p><p> </p><p>Su sepulcro es una joya del románico europeo</p><p> </p><p>En la cara principal está esculpida la muerte de Blanca, mientras su alma representada por un niño desnudo, es elevada al Cielo por dos ángeles.
