He had many mistresses, and identifying which mistress is the mother of which child is difficult. His illegitimate offspring for whom there is documentation are:

Maud FitzRoy, married Conan III, Duke of Brittany

Constance FitzRoy, married Richard de Beaumont

Mabel FitzRoy, married William III Gouet
