Hera found out about yet another affair and took a mortal form and acted as a nurse for Semele. When Semele gossiped that the father was Zeus, Hera - in disguise- questioned her. Semele called Zeus to prove his god-hood, even after Zeus begged her not to. But she asked it, and when he presented him-self in his full glory Semele died. No mortal could look upon an unduised god without dying. Zeus, in a last acted of love saved the baby -Dionysus- from dying aswell and took him out of his mother womb.

Why does Dionysus have problems with Hera?

In one version, Dionysus was the son of another women (either Demeter or Persephone) by Zeus. This made Hera vengeful and she sent her Titans to rip the baby apart. The heart of the baby Dionysus was rescued and Dionysus was recreated and implanted in the womb of Semele. Hera then tricked Semele into asking Zeus to show his true form to her which killed her. Dionysus was able to save her from the underworld though. In another version, Dionysus was the son of Semele and Zeus. Either way, Hera tried to have him killed.
