Her two husbands were Piers Gaveston and 21 GGF Hugh de Audley, 1st Earl of Gloucester. On 28 April 1317 she wed Hugh de Audley, 1st Earl of Gloucester at Windsor Castle. They had one daughter: 20GGM Margaret de Audley.

Her mother was the daughter of 22GGM Joan of Acre, Princess of England; thus making Margaret a great-granddaughter of 23GGF King Edward I by his first consort, 23GGM Eleanor of Castile. As the only daughter and heiress of her father, she succeeded to the title of 2nd Baroness Audley. Margaret was abducted by 20GGF Ralph de Stafford, who had helped Edward III take the throne. At the time, her worth was at least £2314 a year, which was more than ten times Stafford’s own estates. (However, he eventually rose to Earl of Stafford in 1350.) After the abduction, her parents filed a complaint with the king, but Edward supported Stafford. In compensation, the king appeased Hugh and Margaret by creating Hugh the 1st Earl of Gloucester. Margaret de Audley and Stafford married before 6 July 1336. They subsequently had two sons and four daughters, including 19GGM Beatrice de Stafford, born circa 1341 in Staffordshire, England, died 1415, married firstly, in 1350, Maurice FitzGerald, 2nd Earl of Desmond (d.
