She was born in Genazzano as the daughter of Agapito Colonna, lord of Genazzano. Her brother Giordano was shortly Prince of Salerno and Duke of Venosa, while her brother Oddo would become Pope Martin V. On 18 June 1396, she was married to Gherardo Appiani, lord of Piombino. At his death, she held the regency for their son Iacopo.
