Her marriage to Stefan Milutin is dynastic, ie foreseen by the Deževa Agreement.

According to George Pachymeres, Ana was "the daughter of Terter, borne to him by the sister of Asen. The sister of Asen was Kira Maria- second wife of George I Terter. According another theory she was the daughter of George Terter and his first wife Maria, making Ana a full sister of Bulgarian tsar Theodore Svetoslav.

In 1284 Ana married King Stefan Milutin as his third wife. They had two children: Stefan Uroš III Dečanski, who succeeded as king of Serbia Anna-Neda, who married Michael Shishman of Bulgaria.
