Jeyne Lannister
On this tab
Jeyne Marbrand was the wife of Lord Tytos Lannister, Lord of Casterly Rock, and the mother of five of his children, among them Tywin Lannister. Daughter of Lord Alyn Marbrand of Ashemark, her marriage placed her at the heart of a House Lannister that had not yet risen to the power it would later hold.
Marriage to Tytos Lannister
Jeyne married Tytos Lannister in 235 AC in a double ceremony: that same day, Tytos's older brother Ser Tion wed Ellyn Reyne. Tion died the following year, leaving Ellyn a widow just as the influence she had built over Casterly Rock began to slip away.
Ellyn had once pushed aside a betrothed of Tion's to marry him herself, and she tried the same approach with Tytos: an attempt at seduction. Tytos, too intimidated to go through with it, was overcome with guilt and confessed everything to his wife. Jeyne forgave her husband but not Ellyn, and brought the matter to Lord Gerold Lannister, who married Ellyn off to Walderan Tarbeck and had her removed from Casterly Rock.
