		Messalina bore him a daughter (Octavia, born in 39) and a son (Britannicus, born in 41): she was therefore the mother of the heir-apparent and enjoyed influence for that reason.

		Messalina's influence is indicated by her appearance on the obverse of coins of Claudius's reign (where one would expect the head of the emperor), or in the cameo now in Paris depicting Messalina, Octavia, and Britannicus.

		The intrigues that had carried on in the royal family continued unabated around him as emperor, except that the wise and almost omniscient Claudius of old seemed to develop blind spots once in the imperial seat, largely due to love.
		When his wife Messalina finally plots his overthrow with a divorce, he acts, and his life is rather sorrowful ever after.
		Indeed, the terse semi-poem that Claudius composes after being forced to confront the true character of both his wife Messalina and of Rome, and his subsequent decision to play deaf, mute "King Log" to his successor's evil "King Stork" elicits only horror and pity.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Pope St. Clement I
		We know that there were Christians in the household of Nero (Phil., iv, 22).
		It is highly probable that the bearers of Clement's letter, Claudius Ephebus and Valerius Vito, were of this number, for the names Claudius and Valerius occur with great frequency in inscriptions among the freedmen of the Emperor Claudius (and his two predecessors of the same gens) and his wife Valeria Messalina.
		The two messengers are described as "faithful and prudent men, who have walked among us from youth unto old age unblameably", thus they were probably already Christians and living in Rome before the death of the Apostles about thirty years earlier.

	Messalina Venere imperatrice (1960) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The screenplay itself is a Messalina mess:combining politics,love,ambitions,crimes,persecutions of Christians (I thought they began during Nero's reign?),it may entertain you if you do not take it seriously.There's nothing "cultural" here as in Cottafavi's notorious "legioni di Cleopatra" (1960) where Linda Cristal(The queen of Egypt!) went to dance in Alexandria's taverns.
		Here,in a cheap junk antiquity, Belinda Lee is making it rough all over.But only the last scenes (the orgy turning into a slaughter)have something to do with cinema.A young Giuliano Gemma appears briefly as a killer who falls for the empress:he will lose his head!
