Hatshepsut was chief wife to the pharaoh, Thuthmose ii, and he was also her brother.

He had a son and heir by another wife (thuthmose iii). Thuthmose ii died, leaving thuthmose iii , a child, as heir . Originally, Hatshepsut was supposed to be co-regent, but she soon claimed the throne for herself by claiming to be the daughter of Ra. She had wide spread support. She died of natural causes and was succeded by Thuthmose iii.
