She was born as the daughter of count William I (III) of Hainault and Holland and countess Jeanne, either in 1310 or in 1315. Froissart’ statement in the ‘Rome’ redaction of Book I (SHF § 39) that she was thirteen years old when she married on 25 January 1328 supports the later of these two dates. Jean le Bel and Froissart state that negotiations for her marriage to king Edward III of England started in 1327, after the Scottish campaign of that year. In reality, there had already been plans for a wedding between the young Edward and a daughter of count William, possibly Philippa, from as early as 1319, and there were negotiations for a marriage between Edward and Philippa’ eldest sister, Margaret in 1320 and 1321. Edward and Philippa first met in 1325 in Paris and were engaged in August 1326, while Queen Isabella and her son Edward were staying in Hainault. On 27 August 1326 Edward signed a promise that he would marry Philippa within two years; Queen Isabella and her supporters, Edmund of Woodstock, earl of Kent and Roger Mortimer, stood sureties. Papal dispensation for the marriage was first refused but then granted on 30 August 1327. Philippa married Edward by procuration in Valenciennes, after which she travelled to England, where she married her husband on 24 January 1328 in York. She was crowned queen of England on 25 February 1330. She died shortly before 14 August 1369.

SHF 1-302syncCe demoura une espace de temps et le roy d’Engleterre tint toudiz son
siege devant Calais. Et tint grant court et noble le jour de Noel. Le Quaresme ensuiant revindrent de Gascoingne
le conte d’Erbi, le conte de Pennebrot, le conte de Kenfort et grant foison de chevaliers et escuiers qui passé avoient la mer avec eulx et
arriverent devant Calais. Si furent tresbien venuz et liement receuz
du roy, de la royne, des seigneurs et des dames qui la estoient. Et se
logie rent tantost ces seigneurs et leurs gens devant Calais. Le joenne conte de Flandres fu longuement ou danger des Flamens en prison courtoise mais il lui ennuioit car il n’avoit point ce apris. Finablement il mua son propos ne sçay s’il le fist par cautelle ou de vou lenté mais il dist a ses gens qu’il creroit leur conseil car plus de biens lui pou oient
venir d’eulx que de nul autre paÿs. Ces paroles resjoirent moult les Flamens, si le mistrent tantost hors de prison. Et lui acomplirent une partie de ses
deduis tant que d’aler en riviere. A ce estoit il moult enclin mais il avoit toudis bonnes
gardes afin qu’il ne leur peust eschapper ou feust emblé. Lesquelx l’avoient empriz a
garder sur leurs testes et estoient y ceulx du tout de l’acort du roy d’Engleterre et le guettoient si presque a paines pouoit il aler pissier. Ceste chose se proceda
et dura tant que le joenne conte de Flandres eut en couvent a ses gens que voulentiers il prendroit a femme la fille du roy d’Engleterre et ainsi les Flamens le signifierent au roy et a la royne devant Calais. Et qu’ilz voulsissent venir a Ber gues en l’abbaie et la amener leur fille car la ilz amenroient leur seigneur et se concluroit le
mariage. Vous devéz savoir que le roy et la royne furent
de ces nouvelles grandement esjoiz et distrent que les Flamens estoient bonnes gens.
Si fu par l’accort de toutes parties une journee assignee a estre a Bergues sur
la Mer entre le Nuefport et Grave lingues. La
vindrent les plus notables
hommes et plus autentiques de bonnes villes de Flandres en grant estat et puissant et y amenerent leur joenne seigneur, qui courtoisement s’enclina devers le roy d’Engleterre et la royne, qui la estoient venuz en tresgrant arroy. Le roy d’Engleterre prist le
conte de Flandres par la main droite moult doucement et le conjoy en parlant. Puis s’excusa de la mort son pere et dist se Dieux lui peust aidier que onques
tout le jour de la bataille de Crecy ne a l’endemain. Aussi il ne vit ne oÿ
parler du conte de Flandres. Le joenne conte par semblant se tint
de ces excusances asséz pour content. Aprés fu parlé du mariage et eut la certains
articles fais, gettéz et accordéz entre le roy d’Engleterre et le conte Loÿs et le paÿs de Flandres sur grans confederations et aliances et toutes
promises et jurees a tenir. La jura et fiança le dit contemadame Ysabel
la fille du roy englois et la promist espouser. Si fu ceste journee relaxee jusquez
une autre fois que on aroit plus grant loisir. Et s’en retournerent les Flamens en Flandres et enmenerent leur seigneur. Et moult
amiablement se departirent du roy d’Engleterre et de la royne et de leur conseil et le roy d’eulx, lequel s’entourna devant Calais. Ainsi demourerent les choses en cel estat et se pourvei et fist pourveoir le
roy d’Engleterre si grandement que merveilles seroit a recorder pour tenir
celle feste tres estoffeement. Et aussi de beaux et de riches joyaux pour donner et
departir au jour des nopces. Et la royne aussi, qui bien s’en vouloit acquitter
et qui d’onneur et de largesse, passa toutes dames de son temps. Le joenne conte Loÿs, qui estoit revenu en son paÿs entre ses gens, aloit toudiz
en riviere et moustroit par semblant que ce mariage aux Englois lui
plaisoit moult grandement. Et s’en tenoient les Flamens aussi comme
pour tous seürs. Et n’avoit mais sur lui si grant garde comme devant. Avint un jour qu’il estoit aléz voler en riviere et fu la propre sepmaine qu’il devoit espouser pb 111 r
