Haggith had 1 child mentioned in the bible, Adonijah. She could have had more but the bible doesn't mention them.
David's third wife was Abigail of Carmel, the widow of Nabal (1 Samuel 25:39). His first was Michal, Saul's daughter (1 Samuel 18:27) and his second was Ahinoam of Jezreel (1 Samuel 25:43). We don't know very much about Ahinoam before David married her so people often forget her. She is important later though, because she is the mother of Amnon, David's oldest son. (Name spellings are taken from the NIV and will vary with different translations)
The Bible doesn't say what date David was born.
Nabal's abusive words came to the attention of his wife, Abigail. Perhaps this was not the first time she had had to intercede and act as peacemaker for Nabal. In any case, Abigail acted immediately. Without telling Nabal, she gathered provisions-including five sheep and an abundance of food, and went out to meet David in the wilderness. (1 Samuel 25:18-20) When Abigail caught sight of David, she at once prostrated herself before him and warned David against taking hasty action that he would later regret. (1 Samuel 25:23-31)
He was or is not married.
