Adela and Adèle
[edit]In the following sentence, are "Adela" and "Adèle" the same person? If so, why was she threatened by her own daughter in law? If not, who is this Adèle who suddenly appears in this article?
Adela and her brothers felt their position threatened when the heiress of Artois, Isabella of Hainault, married Adèle's son Philip in April 1180.
What about this one? Is "Queen Adèle" the mother of Adela, or the same person?
Louis and Adela married on 13 November 1160, five weeks after his previous wife, Constance of Castile, died in childbirth. Queen Adèle was the mother of Louis VII's only son, Philip II, and of the Byzantine empress Agnes.
If Adela and Adele are the same person, then this says she was already be the mother of Louis VII's son before she married him. If that isn't true -- if she bore his son after their marriage, then the past tense ("was") is misleading -- better to say "She bore him a son" or "She became the mother ...". — Lawrence King (talk) 21:35, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
