Badigysel

Badigysel (French: Baudegisile) was a bishop of the diocese of Le Mans in the 6th century. He served as bishop from 581 to 586, when he died.

Wife and daughter

Gregory of Tours recorded that bishop Badigysel had a wife and daughter who survived him following his death. He recounted that Chuppa, a former constable of the late king Chilperic I, attempted to force the daughter to become his bride. Magnatrude, the mother, gathered together a group of armed men and successfully fought off Chuppa.[1]

Magnatrude also got into a dispute with Bertechramnus the succeeding bishop of Le Mans about property following her husband's death. Magnatrude succeeded in getting an estate given to her from the bishopric's lands. [2]
