Theodora ( _bg. Теодора) of Wallachia was the daughter of Basarab I of Wallachia (1310–1352) and Lady Margareta [P. P. Panaitescu, "Mircea cel Bătrân", Corint, Bucureşti, 2000, p. 37 and p. 45, n. 25] [Constantin C. Giurescu, "Istoria Românilor", All Educaţional, Bucureşti, 2003, p. 299-300] . She married Ivan Alexander of Bulgaria as his first wife. This marriage produced four children — Michael Asen, Ivan Sratsimir, Ivan Asen and Vasilisa. In 1345 Tsar Ivan Alexander divorced Tsaritsa Theodora and sent her into a monastery as a nun under the name Teofana.
