Henry was the eldest son of Count Henry I of Champagne and MariedeChampagne, a daughter of King Louis VII of France and EleanorofAquitaine. His father died in 1181, and his mother ruled asregentuntil 1187. In 1190 Henry left for the East, after having his barons sweartorecognize his younger brother Thibaut as his successor should hefailto return. He joined the Third Crusade alongside both his uncles,KingPhilip II of France and King Richard I of England. In April 1192,KingRichard sent Henry as his representative from Acre to Tyre, toinformConrad of Montferrat of his election as King of Jerusalem. Henrythenreturned to Acre. A few days later, Conrad was murdered bytwoHashshashin. Henry came back to Tyre two days later, ostensiblytohelp organise Conrad's coronation, but found that a funeral wasbeingprepared instead. He was immediately betrothed to thenewly-widowedQueen Isabella of Jerusalem. They were married just aweek afterConrad's death. The marriage was glossed romantically by some of the chroniclers:thatIsabella was so taken with Henry's youth (he was 20 years youngerthanher previous husband) and handsomeness that she asked him tomarryher. Since she was pregnant with Conrad's child (Maria ofMontferrat),the marriage was considered scandalous by some, but it waspoliticallyvital for her to acquire another husband to defend thekingdom. Henryasked for permission from his uncle Richard, who gave itpromptly:however, since Richard was suspected of Conrad's murder, thisraisesfurther questions about the whole episode. The couple hadtwodaughters, Alice and Philippa. Henry, who was known to the Arabs as "al-kond Herri", soughtanalliance with the Hashshashin, who had murdered his predecessor,andwas invited to visit their fortress stronghold, al-Kahf.Todemonstrate his authority, the grand master of theHashshashinbeckoned to two adherents, who immediately flung themselvesfrom theramparts to their deaths. The Hashshashin then offered tocommit amurder for Henry, as an honour to their guest. Henrydemured,concluded the treaty, and departed. Henry died in 1197, falling from a low-set window at his palaceinAcre. He had been watching a parade from the window, when a partyofvisiting envoys entered the room. Turning to greet them, hesteppedbackwards and began to overbalance.
