Who is Queen Eleanora from The Reckoning and what is their importance?

Eleanora is the Queen of England and King Edward's wife. She is Spanish, thus, she is seen as a foreigner by the English people. Her English subjects never truly accept her, partially because she is aloof, distant, largely uncaring. Eleanora and Edward have many children, a testament to her love for Edward. Edward, unlike their children, has her full devotion.
