Socrates of Constantinople
She married Valens ("c." 354) and bore two daughters, Anastasia and Carosa, before she bore a son and heir, Valentinianus Galates (366–370). According to Socrates of Constantinople and Sozomen both daughters were educated by Marcian, a former palatinus (paladin). Marcian had become a Novatianist presbyter. His continued service at court supposedly ensured that Valens held a more tolerant stance regarding Novatianists.
