Biography

Keats-Rohan has an entry for her husband which explains the main theory about her:[1]

Hugh De Belchamp
Important royal official and major tenant-in-chief in Bedfordshire, of which he was sheriff during William I's reign and early in William II's. He succeeded Ralph Taillebois in the office, having, in all probability, married Ralph's daughter and principal heiress. His fief became the barony of Beauchamp. From Beauchamps, cant. La Haye Pesnel, dépt Machne, in west Normandie, according to Melletier; for other possibilities, Loyd, 20-1, s.v. Broilg. Sanders, 10[2]; G.H. Fowler, "The Beauchamps, barons of Bedford", in Beds. Hist. Rec. Soc. i, 1-24.[3]

Heraldry is almost always fake in this period.
