Eadhild (died 937) was an English princess, the second wife of Hugh, duke of the Franks.
She was a daughter of Edward the Elder, king of the Anglo-Saxons and his second wife Ælfflæd.
[1] In 926 Edward's son, king Æthelstan, received an embassy from his cousin, Adelolf, Count of Boulogne, on behalf of Hugh, and Æthelstan agreed to give his half-sister, Eadhild, in marriage in return for an enormous quantity of gifts and relics.
According to William of Malmesbury, these included spices, jewels, many swift horses, an elaborate onyx vase, a crown of solid gold, the sword of Constantine the Great, Charlemagne's lance and a piece of the Crown of Thorns.
[2] Eadhild's full sister, Eadgifu, was the wife of the deposed king of the West Franks, Charles the Simple.
