text: the wife, of lothair ii of lotharingia. biography waldrada's family origin is uncertain. the prolific 19th - century french writer baron ernouf suggested that waldrada was of noble gallo - roman descent, sister of thietgaud, the bishop of trier, and niece of gunther, archbishop of cologne. however, these suggestions are not supported by any evidence, and more recent studies have instead suggested she was of relatively undistinguished social origins, though still from an aristocratic milieu. the vita sancti deicoli states that waldrada was related to eberhard ii, count of nordgau ( included strasbourg ) and the family of etichonids, though this is a late 10th - century source and so may not be entirely reliable on this question. in 855 the carolingian king lothar ii married teutberga, a carolingian aristocrat and the daughter of bosonid boso the elder. the marriage was arranged by lothar's father lothar i for political reasons. it is very probable that waldrada was already lothar ii's mistress at this time. teutberga was allegedly not capable of bearing children and lothar's reign was chiefly occupied by his efforts to obtain an annulment of their marriage, and his relations with his uncles charles the bald and louis the german were influenced by his desire to obtain their support for this endeavour. lothair, whose desire for annulment was arguably prompted by his affection for waldrada, put away teutberga. however, hucbert took up arms on his sister's behalf, and after she had submitted successfully to the ordeal of water, lothair was compelled to restore her in 858. still pursuing his purpose, he won the support of his brother, emperor louis ii, by a cession of lands and obtained the consent of the local clergy to the annulment and to his marriage with waldrada, which took place in 862. however, pope nicholas i was suspicious of this and sent legates to investigate at the council of metz in 863. the council found in favour of lothair's divorce, which led to rumours that the papal legates may have bribed and thus meant that nicholas order lothair to take teutberga back or face excommunication. with the support of charles the bald and louis the german, teutberga appealed the annulment to pope nicholas. nicholas
