He studied theology in Paris and was an archdeacon in Laon. From 1295 to 1301 he was prince-bishop of Liège, appointed by Pope Boniface VIII. Jean played a role in the conflict between Awans and Waroux (fr) (1297–1335), and supported with the siege of Awans until their surrender. Hugues could not prevent military action from both sides and the war continued for decades. There were other conflicts around Liège too, with the Count of Namur and rebels on one side, and the Duke of Brabant and the Count of Loon on the other side with the bishop.
Hugues participated in the Council of Vienne (1311–1312) convoked by Pope Clement V, where he contracted an illness and died, probably around 22 February 1312.

If Barbarossa would have been grandfather of Beatrice of Thiers, it would have been attested in reliable documents, and such are lacking. Barbarossa seemed to have a daughter Beatrix (c.1161–1174), poorly documented, and not married as known.
