Henry scored the duchy of Aquitaine, and had 3 daughters, and five sons with the wealthy Duchess of Aquitaine. Louis VII's ineffective war against Henry for marrying without the authorization of his suzerain was a humiliation for the enemies of Henry and Eleanor. The English couple routed those troops, ravaged their lands, and stole their property. Louis reacted by coming down with a fever, and returned to the Ile de France.
