She then married Lord Sholto George Douglas, uncle of the Marquis of Queensbury. This marriage was dissolved, and she married a Turkish Prince, the seventh son of Sultan Abdul -Hamid. She was again divorced and married Count Sauvigny eighteen months ago at a Londoii registry office. The Count and Countess quarrelled the day after their marriage, parted, and never met again.
