What Happened – June 9

It was on this day in 53 that Nero and Claudia Octavia were married. A couple years later he ascended to the throne of Rome, possibly by poisoning the current emperor. Nero grew to dislike his wife (even tho she was well-loved by the citizens of Rome) and banished her to an island after divorcing her. The people protested in the streets against her exile, so Nero agreed to remarry her. However, it was just a ruse..because it was on this day in 62 that Claudia Octavia was killed by Nero’s men in a manner to make it look like suicide. Six years later…to the day…Nero would cut his own throat with a knife in order to avoid arrest and execution from the Roman Senate.

tl;dr: It was on this day in 53 that Nero and Claudia were married, on this day in 62 he had her killed, and on this day in 68 he killed himself.
