Best Answer

Eventually, after the events of the Trojan War, Helen was seized by her husband, Menelaus, who swore that he'd kill her. She managed to seduce him, and when they landed home after ten years, he was more than willing to forget the incident and take her back again. After Menelaus died, she went to the queen of Rhodes for help. Unfortunately, Queen Polyxo bore a grudge against Helen because her own husband had been killed in the Trojan War. In revenge, Polyxo and her handmaidens dressed up as the Furies and hung Helen from a plane tree.
