Notes par Guy de Thouars gouverneur de Bretagne

Name Suffix: Count Thouars

who ran the Richmond estates, but may not necessarily have been recognized as Earl of Richmond. Guy sided with the King of France against King John of England in 1203, whereupon his English lands were forfeited, after which the question as to whether he enjoyed recognition as Earl hardly arises. [Burke's Peerage, p. 2402]
She [Constance] married 3rdly, Guy DE THOUARS, brother of Almery, VICOMTE OF THOUARS. She died 4 or 5 September 1201, at Nantes, and was buried at Villeneuve. In 1201, after her death, Guy de Thouars was administering the honor of Richmond, the King ratifying leases granted by him, and in 1202 he had licence to sell his wood of Richmond, half the proceeds to go to the King and half to himself; on 2 April 1203 the King ratified the yearly farm to be paid by him for the honor. Later in that year he joined Philip Augustus, and his English lands were confiscated, grants being made from them in September 1203; this terminated his connection with Richmond. In 1204 he invaded Normandy at the head of the Bretons. In Brittany after Constance's death he occupied the position of regent until 1213, when Piers de Braine married his daughter Alice and was made Duke. He then disappears from history, and the date of his death is not certainly known; he was ultimately buried at Villeneuve at the same time as his wife and daughter.

{geni:about_me} Guy of Thouars

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Guy of Thouars (died April 13, 1213) was the second husband of Constance, Duchess of Brittany. Guy served as regent of Brittany between 1203 and 1206 for his infant daughter Alix, Duchess of Brittany.

In 1196 Constance had been imprisoned by Ranulph de Blondeville, 4th Earl of Chester. However, the Bretons rose in revolt to protest her imprisonment and Ranulph was forced to release her. Once home in Brittany she married Guy of Thouars, an Occitan noble, in Angiers.

Between 1198 and the time of her death delivering twin daughters, Constance acted as regent for her young son Arthur I, Duke of Brittany. Constance had abdicated her ducal throne in Arthur's favour in 1194.

Constance died due to complications during the delivery of her twin daughters in 1201.

Once Duke Arthur I died in 1203, he was succeeded by his infant maternal sister, Alix of Thouars. Once his infant daughter inherited the throne, Guy of Thouars became regent of Brittany.

In 1206, however, Philip II of France took the regency of Brittany himself, much to the consternation of the Breton nobles. The young Arthur had already sworn fealty to Philip as king in 1199; Philip now chose this opportunity to exert direct influence in Brittany.

In 1213 Philip II of France arranged for Alix of Thouars to marry Peter of Dreux. That same year Guy of Thouars died in 1213 and was buried at Villeneuve Abbey, Nantes with his wife.
