  Robert de Vere, 1st Duke of Ireland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Robert de Vere fleeing Radcot Bridge, 1387: taken from the Gruthuse manuscript of Froissart's Chroniques (circa 1475).
De Vere was married to Philippa de Coucy the King’s cousin and also had an affair with Agnes de Launcekrona, a Czech lady-in-waiting of the Queen, Anne of Bohemia.
De Vere was hugely unpopular with the nobles and magnates and Richard’s close relationship with him was one of the catalysts for the emergence of an organised opposition to his rule in the form of the Lords Appellant.

 OXFORD, ROBERT DE VERE, 9TH EARL OF (1362-1392) - Online Information article about OXFORD, ROBERT DE VERE, 9TH EARL OF ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
In 1385 Richard decided to send his friend to govern Ireland, and Oxford was given extensive rights in that country and was created marquess of Dublin for life; but although preparations were made for his journey he did not leave England.
Meanwhile the discontent felt at Richard's incompetence and extravagance was increasing, one of the contributory causes thereto being the king's partiality for Oxford, who was regarded with jealousy by the nobles and who made powerful enemies about this time by divorcing his wife, Philippa, and by marrying a Bohemian lady.
The latter was then among those who were accused by the king's uncle Thomas of Woodstock, duke of Gloucester, and his supporters in November 1387; and rushing into the north of England he gathered an army to defend his royal master and himself.

 Duke of Ireland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The title of Duke of Ireland was created in 1386 for Robert de Vere, 9th Earl of Oxford, the favorite of King Richard II of England who had previously been created Marquess of Dublin.
Despite its name, the Dukedom of Ireland is generally considered to have been one in the Peerage of England, and is the first time that a Ducal title was created for someone who was not a close relative of the King.
Since Henry VIII of England took the title King of Ireland in 1541, Ireland was not used as a dukedom again.
