Jeyne Westerling

Queen Jeyne Westerling was a wife of Maegor Targaryen, one of the three "Black Brides."
==Biography==
King Maegor married Jeyne out of desperation for an heir, after failing to produce one with his first three wives, choosing her because she was of proven fertility. Her late husband was at some point killed by Maegor. However, she still miscarried just like the others.

==In the books==
In The World of Ice & Fire and Fire & Blood, Jeyne's husband Alyn Tarbeck died during the Battle Beneath the Gods Eye in 43 AC. She gave birth to his posthumous son a few months later. In 47 AC, Jeyne was forced to marry Maegor Targaryen along with Elinor Costayne and Rhaena Targaryen. Jeyne's son was present as a hostage for her compliance. He became the Lord of Tarbeck Hall after the wedding, and was sent to Casterly Rock to be raised as a ward of Lord Lyman Lannister.
Both Jeyne and Elinor became pregnant the same year, and Maegor happily showered them with gifts and honors, and granted lands and titles to their families. However, Jeyne gave birth three months early to a stillborn child, lacking arms and legs and possessing both male and female genitalia. Jeyne herself died soon after; she was the third to die of Maegor's six wives. In 48 AC, Tyanna of the Tower confessed to having poisoned Jeyne's child in the womb.
Of the three Black Brides, only Jeyne is mentioned in the A Song of Ice and Fire novels: when Catelyn Stark chides her son for breaching the pact with House Frey by marrying Jeyne Westerling, he says that the Westerlings are better blood than the Freys, and there was another Jeyne Westerling who was queen to King Maegor. Unimpressed, Catelyn sharply points out that will only salt Lord Walder's wounds.
