Talk:Stephen II of Hungary
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There is some doubt amongst Hungarian historians and genealogists as to who the two wives were. Some research I have done strongly points to one of them being Helena de Hautville-Guiscard, who had been engaged to marry a King of the Greeks, but due to political expediency was declined and sent home to Sicily. The Pope was very annoyed at this behaviour, and when approached by Hungarian dukes concerned that Stephen seemed not to be interested in marrying and continuing his dynasty, he suggested a suitable wife for Stephen. However, the link between this and Helena seems to have no documentary proof.
