By the time of his accession in September 855, he seems to have still loved her. However, the king was forced to marry Teutberga of the Bosonids and ally with her brother Hucbert to maintain his position. Lothair put away Teutberga as Hucbert's importance waned, but after she passed a trial by ordeal he was forced to take her back. Hucbert died in revolt in 864 after being replaced in Lothair's court.
