Who was David of David and Goliath married to?

David won Michal's hand in marriage when he fulfilled King Saul's challenge to kill 100 Philistines all by himself. Michal was King Saul's daughter. King Saul hated David because he was jealous of him and was hoping that David would be killed trying to fulfill the King's request. David killed twice the number of Philistines required of the King and so Michal was given to David to be his wife. Ref: (I Samuel 18:26-30).
