About Aemilia Lepida, IV

Aemilia Lepida

Aemilia Lepida was daughter of Manius Aemilius Lepidus, consul in 11 CE. This Aemilia Lepida is usually identified with Lepida, wife of the short-lived Roman Emperor Galba. She bore him two sons before her death. She died relatively young, and their sons also died young. Galba never remarried.

When Lepida lived, Agrippina the Younger (then a widower after Gnaeus Domitius Ahenobarbus' death) tried to make shameless advances to Galba who was devoted to his wife and thus completely uninterested. On one occasion Lepida’s mother gave Agrippina the Younger in a whole bevy of married women a public reprimand and slapped her in the face.
