MARGARET, DUCHESS OF ARGYLL was an international celebrity in her youth, adored and observed by millions. But in 1963 the 11th Duke of Argyll shocked the country when he alleged that his adulterous wife had slept with over eighty men behind his back. As his evidence, he produced a set of sexually explicit Polaroid photographs and explosive love letters, helping to win his divorce and affecting Margaret’s life forever. On the verge of financial destitution, she fell from grace and was abandoned by most of her friends prior to her death in a nursing home in Pimlico in 1993.In this meticulously researched biography Lyndsy Spence tells a tragic story of the life and downfall of this fascinatingly complex woman, and shows how she fell victim to a cruel husband, harsh social mores and an unforgiving class.

All my life, I had heard about this “dreadful” woman. I was fascinated by her. I then forgot all about her. Whilst reading my way through Lady Colin Campbell’s books she pops up again. Another side to the ongoing story.The Campbell men, as Dukes of Argyll, are not the most pleasant of human beings. They are mercenary at best,from all accounts, exceedingly unpleasant at worst as husbands from their wives recollections.They burst onto the historical stage at Glencoe and it is all downhill from there. Personally, as a Scot, I have little to do with Campbells. Just saying.Margaret comes across as a product of her generation, a last bright flame of a dying breed. None too bright, enormously wealthy, privileged and blessed with the right looks for the time, she shone incandescently. Dazzling men, she picked and used, used and dropped, flitted and married, was cushioned by wealth and connections until the very end. Self professedly highly sexed, she loved being with men. Did she like sex or the process of romance? She was a contemporary of Wallis Simpson, and looked like her.The famous Headless Polaroid is here, not the photo itself, but a discussion. We still don’t know the man, but we have a good stab at his identity.Personally, I would love to know how these women never got pregnant. Or perhaps they did, and had “ terminations”. How DID they cope with such active sex lives and keep their birth rates so low?If you like a good readable biography, try this. It skips and jumps. Misses chunks and I think this is due to lack of material? Just stay away from Campbell men!
