About the Venerable Bede
No source about any marriage or children. Several sources indicates he had lived his whole life in a monastery. Marriage is not only doubtfull : it seems ridiculous.

This whole tree seems to be a pure fake.

Bede himself says that he met with Bishop Wilfrid, sometime between 706 and 709, to discuss the body of Æthelthryth, the abbess of Ely. Indicating that he had been party to an autopsy or examination of the body following its exhumation of her body in 695^{And so what?}.

As an orphan he was sent by relatives to be educated at the abbey where he served as a lay brother for many years, married^{Ref needed !}, had a son^{Ref needed !}. Then he and his wife both took their vows and became celebate.
