She married Louis the Younger - who had already been betrothed to a daughter of Count Adalhard - on 29 November 874 at Aschaffenburg. They had two children: Louis (877-879) and Hildegard (c. 879-after 899), who became a nun in Chiemsee, Bavaria.

Her daughter Dietpirch of Swabia (also known as Theoberga) married Hupald, Count of Dillingen (d. 909). Their children included Ulrich of Augsburg.
