What if Henry I of England had a son by Adeliza of Louvain? Lets call him Henry and he was born in 1122. Will there be a smooth succession in this timeline or will it be bloody like otl? Who would he marry? Discuss!

unlikly thatd hed have another son by then, but if he did, i could imagine one of his bastard brothers or stephen taking a regency but having to give power to him when he reaches his majority...it also may save henrys plans for europe, but probaly not by much
Why is it unlikely? Henry's only in his fifties, and his wife is more than young enough.
i said unlikely not just cos of his age but his depression about William dying and the added stressed of needing a male (legitimate) heir will probably not help him knock her up...didnt say impossible (and as we know, she later didnt have any trouble spitting out kids)
