As a widow she remarried to Baldwin V of Flanders. One of their children was Matilda of Flanders, the future wife of William The Conqueror, so she was the morther in law of William the Conqueror. She was responsible for establishing the Colleges of Aire & Lille & Harelbeke as well as the abbeys of Messines and Ename. After Baldwin's death she retreated to the convent of Messines near Ypres.
