She was reputed to be "ugly," but attentive and pious, and with Louis she had six sons and two daughters:
Philip (1116-1131), not to be confused with his brother of the same name; died from a fall from a horse;
Louis VII the Young (1120-1180), king of France;
Henry (1121-1175), bishop of Beauvais (1149-1161) and then of archbishop of Reims (1161-1175);
Hugh (c. 1123), died young;
Robert I of Dreux (c. 1123-1188), called Robert the Great, count of Dreux (1137-1184), count of Perche;
Constance (c. 1124-1180), married first (in 1140) Eustace IV of Boulogne, married second (in 1154) Raymond V of Toulouse;
Philip (c. 1125-1161), not to be confused with his elder brother; bishop of Paris;
Peter I of Courtenay (c. 1125-c. 1182), married Elizabeth of Courtenay.

After Louis VI's death, she married Matthieu I, sire de Montmorency, with whom she had one child.

In 1153 she retired to the abbey of Montmartre, which she had founded with Louis VII. She died there on November 18, 1154.
