Theodora Komnene (born 15 January 1096)[1], was a Byzantine noblewoman, being the youngest daughter of Emperor Alexios I Komnenos and Irene Doukaina. She married Konstantinos Angelos, Admiral of Sicily by whom she had seven children. Byzantineemperors Alexios III Angelos and Isaac II Angelos were her grandsons, thereby making her an ancestress of the Angelos dynasty.
Theodora was born in Constantinople on 15 January 1096, the youngest daughter of Emperor Alexios I Komnenos and Irene Doukaina. She had four brothers and four sisters. Among her siblings were Emperor John II Komnenos, and historian Anna Komnene.Her paternal grandparents were Ioannis Komnenos and Anna Dalassena, and her maternal grandparents were Andronikos Doukas and Maria of Bulgaria.
Theodora married Konstantinos Angelos (c.1085- after July 1166) sometime before 1120. He was the son of Manolis Angelos, and a military commander of Emperor Manuel I and would later in 1145 become the commander of the Imperial fleet in Sicily. Byzantine historian Niketas Choniates names Theodoram Alexii avi Manuelis filiam as the wife of Constantium Angelum.[2] Together Konstantinos and Theodora had seven recorded children, although there were possibly eight children born to the couple:[2]
* John Doukas (c.1126- 1200), Governor of Epirus, married firstly a lady whose name is unknown by whom he had two sons; married secondly Zoe Doukaina by whom he had three sons.
* Alexios Komnenos Angelos, married and fathered one son.
* Andronikos Dukas Angelos (died after 1185), married Euphrosyne Kastamonitissa, by whom he had nine children including emperors Alexios III Angelos and Isaac II Angelos.
* Isaac Angelos, military Governor of Cilicia
* Maria Angelina, married Konstantinos Kamytzes, by whom she had one daughter.
* Eudokia Angelina, married Basileios Tsykandeles
* Zoe Angelina, married Andronikos Synadenos
Theodora Komnene died on an unknown date. Among her numerous descendants was Irene Angelina, wife of Philip of Swabia; thus Theodora is an ancestress of Every royal house in Europe.
