Langtry Spouse Tragedy Follows Quaker Kin Tale
Edward Langtry once married to Lily Langtry drank himself into insanity and died in a Chester insane asylum. The long quarrel with Mrs Langtry began after an accidental meeting with Sir George Chetwynd, Baronet, who invited the couple to a country house. Mrs Langtry then moved to a city home in Mayfair, entering the Belgrave circle where her dinners and charm brought social prominence, a scene shadowed by marital strife and an eventual death.
