In 968, William IV (Guillaume) d'Aquitaine married Emma or Emmeline, daughter of Theobald I of Blois and Luitgarde (Liègarde) de Vermandois. Their marriage was stormy, in part because of William's indulgence in the pursuit of women and, a hunting aficionado, wild animals. She banished his paramours, they separated twice for long periods, and finally he retired to a monastery, as his father had done, leaving Emma to rule Aquitaine in the name of their son William until 1004. Their second son, Ebles, died sometime after 997.

Guillaume Fièrebrace (935 - 995) fut comte de Poitiers de 963 à 995 sous le nom de Guillaume II et duc d'Aquitaine sous celui de Guillaume IV durant la même période. Il succède à son père Guillaume III de Poitiers.

Il épouse Emma, fille de Thibaut le Tricheur, comte de Blois, en 968 dont il a Guillaume le Grand, qui lui succède. Sa sœur Adélaïde épouse Hugues Capet.

Il est considéré comme un guerrier de valeur, qui impose son autorité aux seigneurs et vicomtes du Poitou. Il résiste victorieusement au roi de France Hugues Capet qui tente de s'emparer de Poitiers en 988. Mais ses nombreux adultères entachent son règne, notamment sa liaison avec Aldéarde de Thouars, provoquant le départ de sa femme Emma de Blois. Il disparaît des sources écrites, les moines rédacteurs refusant probablement de parler d'un seigneur infidèle. Après un rapprochement peu durable avec sa femme, il réapparaît quelque temps, avant de redisparaître vers 993.
