Later, growing up in Kent, England, the sisters enjoyed the same care from their mother's husband as did the couple's own daughter. After his death, the four siblings and mother settled in London, where the author married the future theatrical entrepreneur, Robin Fox. Both were 21, hedonistic and often unfaithful, but the marriage lasted until Robin's death in 1971.
