By her first marriage, she was Countess of Flanders; by her second, she was Queen consort of France (of the Franks). She was a descendant of Charlemagne both through Lothair II and Gisela. Biography Rozala (Susanna), born sometime between 950-960, was the daughter of King Berengar of Ivrea, King of Italy (c. 900 - 966).[1] Her mother was Willa of Tuscany, the daughter of Boso, Margrave of Tuscany and his wife Willa.[2] In 968 she married Count Arnulf II of Flanders (d. 987).[1] On her husband's death, she acted as regent for her young son.

Upon her marriage, she took the name of Susannah, and was the queen consort of the co-ruling king Robert, under senior King Hugh. From 991/992 the couple lived basically separated as Rozala had become too old (c. 38) to have more children and they lacked marital happiness. When her father-in-law died in 996, however, Robert repudiated her completely, desiring to marry Bertha of Burgundy in her place.[4] That marriage was not lawful because of too close kinship so Robert married a third time 1003 with Constance of Arles who bore him seven children. Rozala retired back to Flanders, where she died and was buried. Robert retained control of her "dowry", or the rights to the mentioned territory. Marriage amd issue Rosala was firstly (968-987) married to Arnulf II of Flanders, They had the following children: Baldwin IV of Flanders (980-1035), who succeeded his father.[1] Baldwin married twice and had issue, Baldwin V, Count of Flanders and Judith of Flanders, Countess of Northumbria Mathilda (d. 995).[1] The second marriage (988-996) with Robert II of France did not produce any children.
