High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Raynald of Chatillon (also Reynald, Reynold, Renald, or Reginald; French: Renaud de Chatillon, old French: Reynaud de Chastillon) (c. 1125 - July 4, 1187) was a knight who served in the Second Crusade and remained in the Holy Land after its defeat. He ruled as Prince of Antioch from 1153 to 1160 and through his second marriage became Lord of Oultrejordain. He was a controversial character in his own lifetime and beyond.Raynald's origins are obscure; Du Cange believed he was from Chatillon-sur-Marne, but according to Jean Richard, he was a son of Herve II of Donzy, and he inherited Chatillon-sur-Loing sometime before joining the Second Crusade in 1147. In the east, he entered the service of Constance of Antioch, whose first husband had died in 1149. She married Raynald in secret in 1153, without consulting her first cousin and liege lord, Baldwin III of Jerusalem. Neither King Baldwin nor Aimery of Limoges, the Latin Patriarch of Antioch, approved of Constance's choice of a husband of such low birth.
