LGBT

If she's classified as LGBT, there ought to be some reference to this in the text. Perhaps there could be some elucidation of the comment Within weeks, the couple regretted their marriage. Valetude (talk) 19:17, 10 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

(4 years later) It's really terrible and unprofessional that the above comment wasn't addressed. Upon Olivier and Esmond's return to England from the United States, Esmond is supposed to have cheated on Olivier with other women, yet the current version of this article mentions only affiar with Olivier and other women. Please edit this article to accord with the facts of Esmond's and Olivier's lives. Both, it has been documented, were bisexual, and apparently Esmond preferred the intimate company of women to that of men. 98.123.38.211 (talk) 04:26, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Some authors

There is a bad sentence in the current version, in the form of an odd ‘note’:

>> Some authors suggested that in her later years, Esmond discussed the bitterness she felt towards Olivier.

This is sourced to Spoto, not the most authoritative of writers. I don’t have a copy so suggest that someone who has checks the section, and if true:

- Incorporates the note in the main text

- Uses better English (“suggest” is a weasel word for a factual claim like “Edmond discussed” - she either did or did not)

- Resulting in a better sentence, such as “The controversial biographer Donald Spoto writes that…”
