It gets more dramatic.

Augustus forces Tiberius to divorce his wife and marry his [Augustus] daughter, Julia (the elder). Tiberius is not happy about this at all.

Eventually it comes out that Julia is unfaithful to Tiberius, which Augustus is probably aware of and maybe even encourages, and Augustus has her exiled to an island.

After Augstus' death, Tiberius takes away whatever possessions Julia has left and basically has her starved to death.
