Theodora was the second wife of Constantius I and the step-mother of Constantine the Great. In the 280s AD Constantius I was forced to divorce his wife Helena, the mother of Constantine the Great, and marry Theodora, the step-daughter of Diocletian. This marriage strengthened Constantius' standing in the emerging Tetrarchy.
