Philip I of Boulogne (Philip Hurepel)[1] (1200–1235) was a French prince, Count of Clermont-en-Beauvaisis in his own right, and Count of Boulogne,[1] Mortain, Aumale, and Dammartin-en-Goële jure uxoris. Philip was born in September 1200, the son of Philip II of France[2] and his controversial third wife Agnes of Merania.[3] Illegitimacy shadowed his birth and career, but he was legitimated by Pope Innocent III.[4] He was associated with founding the Tour du Guet in Calais.[5] He is the first recorded person to bear a differenced version of the arms of France.[6]

Marriage

Philip was married in c. 1223 to Matilda II, Countess of Boulogne.[1] Philip, by right of his wife, became Count of Boulogne, Mortain, Aumale, and Dammartin-en-Goële. He revolted against his sister-in-law Blanche of Castile when his elder half-brother Louis VIII died in 1226.[7] When Philip died in 1235, Matilda continued to reign and was married to Afonso III of Portugal. Matilda and Philip had:

  • Alberic of Boulogne[8]
  • Joan of Boulogne,[8] married Gaucher de Châtillon in 1236.
