At the time of his birth in Florence, his father Charles had survived his only brother Louis. The newborn prince, his sister and his father were the only living, legitimate, male-line descendants of his paternal grandfather, Robert, King of Naples. Charles also had a surviving daughter, Maria, who would die aged two in 1328. The next-in-line to the throne was Philip I, Prince of Taranto, the son of Charles II of Naples.
The young prince died only eight days after his birth, in Florence. His death left Joanna again heir to the throne. Joanna eventually became Queen of Naples — a younger sister to the Duke was born after his father died, in 1329.
At the time of his birth in Naples, Joanna had survived her own brothers and only had a younger sister. The newborn Duke of Calabria and his mother and aunt were the only living, royal, legitimate descendants of his paternal great-grandfather, Robert, King of Naples. The heir presumptive since was Charles of Durazzo. Charles was betrothed to Joanna of Durazzo, his cousin, in 1347. In February 1348, the little Duke was transferred to Hungary.
