Tey
Tey was the wife of Kheperkheprure Ay (occasionally "Aya"), who was the penultimate pharaoh of Ancient Egypt's 18th dynasty. She was also the wet nurse of Queen Nefertiti.〔, p.157〕
Her husband, Ay filled an important role in the courts of several pharaohs – Amenhotep III, Akhenaten and Tutankhamen – before ascending the throne himself, as the male line of the royal family became extinct. He is believed to be connected to the royal family; he was likely a brother of Queen Tiye (wife of Amenhotep III), the father of Nefertiti (wife of Akhenaten) and a grandfather of Ankhesenamun (wife of Tutankhamen).
==Family==
On inscriptions from the Amarna period Tey is called “nurse of the Great Royal Wife”. This indicates that even if Ay was Nefertiti's father, as he is usually believed to be, Tey was not her mother; according to this theory she was possibly the second wife of Ay after Nefertiti's mother died.〔Dodson & Hilton, pp.36,147〕 It has been proposed that Mutbenret was their daughter and later married Horemheb, Ay's successor on the throne.〔Dodson & Hilton, pp.153, 155-156〕 It is also possible that Ay's intended successor, Nakhtmin, was his son, possibly by Tey.〔Dodson & Hilton, pp.151-153〕
Tey may have had a sister called Mutemnub. A dignitary named Ay is called second priest of Amun, high priest of Mut and Steward of Queen Tey on a statue now in the Brooklyn Museum. This man's parents are recorded on the statue as Mutemnub and Nakhtmin. Mutemnub is said to be a sister of Queen Tey, and the inscription is usually interpreted to mean that she was the sister of Tey, wife of Ay.〔Dodson & Hilton, p.155〕
