Accusations that Hawise was a witch may be borne out by covert historical documents. I have been decoding the French Tapestries of the Lady and the Unicorn and seem to have come across her as a possible candidate co-schemer with Prince / King John over the de jure heirs Arthur and Eleanor of Brittany.

There is no overt proof here, only circumstantial evidence and inferences drawn therefrom.

I've read assertions that she would have recovered her earldom of Gloucester after the death of her nephew Amaury VI of Monfort, count of Evreux until 1195, between 1213 and 1214. See : Medieval Lands. What says the Complete Peerage on this ? --PurpleHz 00:45, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Queen of England

[edit]

ODNB describes her as "queen of England, first consort of King John". Is there a reason to doubt this? John was crowned in May, and the marriage was not dissolved until August. Surtsicna (talk) 12:09, 27 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I concur. See Caroline of Brunswick, a similar case in some ways, who is described as queen. PatGallacher (talk) 12:45, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ancestry

Hello, I suggest this ancestry of her:
