"Fair Maid of Kent"
===========
[Isiaha Lee.ged]
Joan "The Fair Maid of Kent" later (after her cohabitation/marriage with William De Montagu) married as her 3rd husband the Black Prince, was mother of Richard II and may well have been the lady who inspired the naming of the Order of the Garter.
[Burke's Peerage]
Joan, Countess of Kent and Baroness Wake, both in her own right; married 1st by 1339 Sir Thomas De Holand, KG, of Broughton, Bucks, considered to be Earl of Kent in right of his wife. Joan, Countess of Kent, married 2nd 10 Oct 1361 Edward, (The Black Prince), Prince of Wales (dvp 3 June 1376), eldest son of Edward III, and died 8 Aug 1385, leaving by him [Richard II King of England; deposed 30 Sep 1399, murdered 14 Feb 1399/1400], with an elder son (died at age seven).

He [William De Montagu] married, 1stly, Joan, suo jure COUNTESS OF KENT, Baroness WOODSTOCK and Baroness WAKE, sister and heir of John, EARL of KENT, and daughter of Edmund, EARL OF KENT, younger son of EDWARD I by his 2nd wife Margaret, daughter of PHILIP III, King OF FRANCE (a).
[Complete Peerage XI:388-90, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]
(a) The marriage presumably took place before 10 Feb 1340/1, when the Earl of Salisbury [William's father] had lic. to settle Mold upon William, son of William De Montagu, and Joan his wife; certainly before the date in 1343, when the Bishop of Exeter (Grandison) wrote that his nephew, son and heir of the Earl of Salisbury, had m. the niece of Thomas Wake (Lord Wake of Liddell). Sir Thomas Holand (later Earl of Kent) afterwards proved that he had m. Joan (about 1339, when she would have been 11), and alleged that, in his absence in Prussia, she was m. to William De Montagu. William and Joan were still living as husband and wife, 15 Oct 1348. They were divorced in or before Oct 1349. The pope ordered the re-establishment of the 1st marriage, 17 Nov 1349. The papal commission to the archbishop, concerning the marriage of the Prince of Wales and the Countess Joan, 7 Sep 1361, confirmed by another Bull, 11 Dec following, records that the Earl of Salisbury acquiesced in the definitive sentence (pronounced in 1349) and m. another lady, whom he thenceforth possessed, and still possesses, as his lawful wife.

[Jim Weber]
First Female holder of Order of the Garter, "a great beauty".
She was described as the most beautiful and most amorous lady in the whole kingdom of her time. Born the youngest child of Edmund of Woodstock, created Earl of Kent by his father, King Edward I. She was only 2 when he was executed for plotting against the regency of Queen Isabella (who, with the help of her lover Roger Mortimer, had deposed her husband Edward II in favor of her son Edward III). Although the granddaughter of a king, she had few material prospects, and that would indicate that her marriage to Sir Thomas was a love match.
Thomas de Holand fought at the Battle of Crecy, 26 Aug 1346. During his absence abroad, Joan his wife went through a form of marriage (possibly under compulsion) with William de Montagu, 2nd Earl of Salisbury (d. June 3, 1397), KG. On 17 Nov 1349 the Pope ordered that Joan be restored to her lawful husband.
