January 17, 38 BC: Octavian marries Livia Drusilla (58 BC-AD 29 ), daughter of Marcus Livius Drusus Claudianus and Aufidia. Livia was probably married in 43 BC to Tiberius Claudius Nero, and her first child, the future Emperor Tiberius, was born in 42 BC. When introduced to Octavian in 39 BC, Octavian was still married to Scribonia (who gave birth to his daughter Julia the Elder on the very day when he divorced her) and Livia was pregnant with her second son Nero Claudius Drusus (later known as Drusus the Elder), who was born 3 days before they married. Her former husband to Tiberius Claudius Nero, who had been forced to divorce her, was present at the wedding, giving her away in marriage.
