To the best of my knowledge, Eleanor was the only woman married to both a king of France and a king of England.

And as a complete piece of trivia, the £1000,000 question asked of Judith Keppel, Britains first "Who wants to be a Millionaire" Millionaire was "Which king was married to Eleanor of Aquitaine?"
There was some controversy as many people thought that it was too easy,but as Chris Tarrant say's it's only easy if you know the answer!

I like that response, Vivienne.

Henry II's wife was Eleanor of Aquitaine!
