I hope this comes up in Thronebreaker :D. From Sapkowski's dynastic descriptions: ..."Lioness CALANTHE initially did not want to get married at all, and then, when she decided after many persuasions, for a marriage of convenience, it turned out that it was difficult to get ready. Too many rumors circulated about the princess - then the queen - of Cintra. There was talk about incestuous relationships in the family, gossip about "hot blood", about numerous romances and adventures. There was even talk of a perverted relationship between CALANTHE and her cousin, Queen Meve of Lyria. All this meant that subsequent princes and princes politely refused when they were offered a bethrothal.

It was necessary to look far for a groom- and he was found: in Ebbing, in the Duchy of Salm. For the young Duke ROEGNER de Salm, marriage to Queen Cintra was a great honor and promotion, so ROEGNER - though he knew the rumors - agreed without hesitation.
