Adelaide [Collins], became the second wife of King Louis VI of France in 1115 , and they had nine children, the second of whom became Louis VII of France. 

She was one of the most politically active of all France’s medieval queens, with her name appearing on 45 royal charters from the reign of Louis VI.

After Louis VI’s death, Adelaide did not immediately retire to conventual life, as did most widowed queens of the time. Instead, she married Matthieu I of Montmorency and they had one child.
