His affection for Agnes was as intense as his hatred of Ingeburga.
The former was introduced on all occasions to grace the royal circle; the latter was dragged from convent to convent, or rather from prison to prison.
Agnes had declared that she cared nothing for the crown, that it was her husband she loved; a stranger, the daughter of a christian prince, young and ignorant of the world, she married the king; and had borne him two children.

Five years before Innocent was elected, the King of France had repudiated his wife, Ingeborg of Denmark, and had taken in her place Agnes of Meran.

 The ordination of women in the Roman Catholic Church
On 13 January 1200, Pope Innocent III placed France under an interdict because the French king’s marriage to his mistress Agnes of Meran was declared invalid.
