Livia Orestilla

Livia Orestilla (or Cornelia Orestilla ) was 37 or 38 AD for a few days, the second wife of the Roman emperor Caligula.

It should first be married to Gaius Calpurnius Piso, but still during the wedding ceremony Caligula forced to divorce in order to marry themselves. As outer pretext he made an alleged ancient Roman tradition contends, relying on one of the legendary founders of Rome, Romulus, as well as the first emperor of the Roman Empire, Augustus. Both have their wives also stolen from other men. A few days after the forced marriage, he divorced Livia again.

Two months ( Cassius Dio ) or years ( Suetonius ) later, she was exiled along with Gaius Calpurnius Piso of Caligula, because that Livia suspected to have returned to her original husband. Maybe she is the wife writes from the Tacitus, that Piso's love is well known to her.
