01/27/1186 AD married
The emperor and Constance are married, as he saw the opportunity of adding the Sicilian crown to his imperial one, since Constance was the sole legitimate heir to King William II of Sicily.
He had already entered into negotiations with William to betroth his son and heir with William's aunt Constance by 1184. Constance, almost 30 years old at that time, was said to have been confined in Santissimo Salvatore, Palermo as a nun since childhood to keep celibacy due to a prediction that "her marriage would destroy Sicily" despite having become the sole heir as William had remained childless.
