Wife

[edit]

She can't be his wife. Harald's first wife was alive throughout the time. Wasn't she his mistress instead?--Queen Elizabeth II's Little Spy (talk) 23:10, 29 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No, it seem to have been bigamy. The sources clearly say that they married. That is not unknown for Christian kings. Look for example at Sophie von Dönhoff, Julie von Voß, Elisabeth Helene von Vieregg, Anna Sophie Reventlow, Margarethe von der Saale..... It was not accepted but they did it anywhay. This is simply what the information says. Unfortunately, it does not seem to be much information about the matter, the information only say that he married her despite the fact that he was already married. Exactly how he could do it is not clerified. But it must have been bigamy. --85.226.45.95 (talk) 23:58, 29 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
