Hubert or Humbert (Italian: Uberto; died 15 September 967 or March 970) was the illegitimate son of Hugh of Italy and his concubine Wandelmoda. He was made Margrave of Tuscany by his father between 935 and 937, after the deposition of his uncle Boso. In 941, he was made a count palatine and he was made Duke of Spoleto and Margrave of Camerino in 942 or 943, after Sarlione was removed for the murder of the previous duke, Anscar of Spoleto.
Hubert was, as ruler over Tuscany and Spoleto, the whole of central Italy, the most powerful vassal of King Berengar II. Hubert and Pope John XII invited Otto the Great, King of Germany, to cross the Alps and take the throne from the incompetent Berengar.
In 945 or 946, Hubert was removed from the duchy of Spoleto. On 13 February 962, he was removed from office in Tuscany.
He married Willa, daughter of Boniface I of Spoleto. She was the mother of a son and three daughters: Hugh, margrave of Tuscany; Waldrada, married Pietro IV Candiano, doge of Venice; Bertha (Berta), married Arduin of Ivrea; and Willa, married Tedald of Canossa. She was the founder of the church of the Badia Fiorentina, at Florence.
