Empress Bumble Bee,
Don't listen to what Teff just said, he is being purposefully misleading. He is just trying to play smart. Vanity of vanities.
Look again at what he said:
----------------------
None. She only became Empress {negeste' ne'ge'stat} after marrying Emperor Haile Selassie the First.
----------------------
He is saying that before She married Haile Selassie I she was not an Empress. If he wanted to get more technical, he might have said that she didn't become Empress until she was Coronated.
So before she was Coronated she was Woizero Menen. And Woizero Menen had four children.
She first married Dejazmatch Ali of Cherecha, and bore him a daughter, Woizero Belaynesh Ali, and a son, Jantirar Asfaw Ali.
She divorced him and then married Dejazmatch Amede Ali Aba-Deyas, and bore him a daughter, Woizero Desta Amede, and a son, Jantirar Gebregziabiher Amede.
Dejazmatch Amede Ali Aba-Deyas died suddenly and then Menen's grandfather, King Mikael of Wollo arranged a marriage between her and Ras Leul Seged Atnaf Seged, but she had no children with him.
She then separated from Ras Leul Seged Atnaf Seged and afterwards she married Haile Selassie I.
