He was full of wonderful ideas and just made me see that my life could be different. It could be a great adventure. And I completely fell for him. He was also a great friend of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/princess-margaret\/\" class=\"exposure-link \" data-linktrack=\"LinkTracker,articleExposure,princess-margaret\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Princess Margaret<\/a>. He was one of the young men she went out with. And I was always rather amazed that he chose me, that he actually wanted to marry me. And a lot of the time we were very happy. I had seen him lose his temper before we got married.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He always said, \u2018The minute we\u2019re married, I won\u2019t need to lose my temper.\u2019 Which, of course, I believed. But he lost his temper on our honeymoon. His promise of not to lose his temper didn\u2019t last long.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I lost my trust in men. We saw each other once a week. We had lunch and the occasional weekend. But he gave me back [my trust]. And I realized that men can be wonderful, that men could be kind, and all that. He made so much difference in my life.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nThe baroness &#8211; who remained married to Colin until he died in 2010 at the age of 83 following a battle with prostate cancer &#8211; claimed that the mystery man&#8217;s wife was aware of the affair but alleged that she was possibly guilty of adultery too as she insisted that being unfaithful was how marriages were kept &#8220;together&#8221; in those days as an &#8220;alternative&#8221; to divorce. <\/p>\n<p>\nShe added: &#8220;She sent me a memento after he died\u2026 I think she probably had some of her own. That\u2019s what people used to do in marriages. That\u2019s how they kept marriages together, really. People had affairs. And yet, we carried on. It was an alternative to divorce.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/adultery-keeps-marriages-together-princess-margarets-lady-waiting-reveals-34-year-affair-1374295.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>27 February 2023 Lady Anne Glenconner had a 34-year affair with a mystery man.
