Hla Htut was the first wife of her half cousin Prince Thihathu of Ava. They were married by King Minkhaung I.[1] Her marriage to Thihathu, who was six years her junior, did not last. In 1415, Thihathu divorced her before marrying his then widowed sister-in-law Saw Min Hla. King Minkhaung then married Hla Htut to Saw Shwe Khet, her half cousin, twice removed.[1][3] They had a daughter named Shin Yun, who later became wife of Gov. Min Maha of Prome.[1]

Ancestry

Hla Htut was a granddaughter of King Swa Saw Ke of Ava, and ultimately descended from the Pagan royalty.
