Amanieu VI d'Albret
Amanieu VI (? — after April 1272) was a French nobleman, the Lord of Albret (French: Seigneur d’Albret). The lordship (seigneurie) of Albret, in the Landes, gave its name to one of the most powerful feudal families of France in the Middle Ages. One of Amanieu’s descendants became king of Navarre; a later descendant was Henry IV, king of France.
Amanieu’s reign was dominated by conflict over the English kings’ control of Gascony. His father, also named Amanieu, was one of the leaders of the revolt against English rule.{{cite book |first=Frank Burr |last=March

She had been separated from her husband on the basis that Amanieu’s father had been her godfather.
