 Roman Emperors - DIR Agrippina the Younger
Agrippina and Claudius lost no time and were married early in AD 49, only months after Messalina had been removed from the scene.
The timetable provided a motive: Claudius was allegedly beginning to regret his marriage to her and in the process of changing his mind about the preferred position of Nero.
Details are unclear, but it seems that the two surviving sisters had given up on the erratic Gaius and offered Lepidus the asset of their Julian blood in order to help validate his attempt to take over the principate.

 Agrippina Rehabilitated
Knowing that Agrippina would be alert to any attempt to poison her, Nero set up an elaborate plot in which Agrippina was invited on a sea voyage with Nero.

Most legitimate historians now believe that Agrippina had no reason to insinuate the alleged infamous plate of poison mushrooms.
