The people back in Rome were disgusted by the way Antony treated Octavia, and they were very angry to hear that Antony was calling himself a God and Cleopatra calling herself a Goddess. Anotny got married to Octavian's half sister Octavia and had two girls. Cleopatra was with him at all times doing everything with him like going hunting, drinking, watching him build up his arms, and at night they would go out dressed as servants and bug people.
