Baldwin III of Jerusalem
Melisende's son Baldwin III of Jerusalem (), who was staying in Tripoli when Raymond II was murdered, recalled the widowed Hodierna to the town. Baldwin held an assembly after the burial at which the nobles of the County of Tripoli paid homage to Hodierna and her two minor children, Raymond and Melisende. Raymond II had decreed that the master (or head) of the Knights Hospitaller in the county was to administer Tripoli if an underage count mounted the throne. Baldwin ignored the late count's instructions in appointing Hodierna to the regency for her son.
