Harriet Osborne, Baroness Godolphin
[edit]- ... that the high-waisted fashions of the early 1800s likely helped the Countess of Bessborough hide her figure from her husband while pregnant with her illegitimate daughter, Harriet Osborne? Source: Gleeson 2006, p. 208. "How did Harriet manage to keep her secret safe and conceal the inevitable changes in her figure? There seems little doubt that the fashions of the time assisted – everyone, apart from the very youthful, tall, and slender, looked pregnant in the high-wasted styles of the day".
- ALT1:... that despite being illegitimate, Harriet Osborne, Baroness Godolphin was celebrated by French society and almost became Duchess of Leeds? Source: Gleeson 2006, p. 367. "The Osbornes settled nearby, taking a house in the Bois de Boulogne, and French society welcomed them with gusto". Leeds fact source: [1]
