In the Diamond Horseshoe, niftiest railbirds were Mrs. George Washington Kavanaugh, Lady Decies and Mrs. Leonora Warner (see cut).

But Elizabeth Brooke (Princess Pearl) married a jazz-band leader, Harry Roy. Nancy Valerie Brooke (Princess Baba) married and divorced a professional wrestler, Bob Gregory. To make matters worse, Sir Charles's wife, the Ranee, a daughter of the late Viscount Esher, published her autobiography, Relations and Complications, indiscreetly revealing the details of Sir Charles's courtship, their marital relations.
