 Party Girl
For more than 20 years, until the duchess's death, she and the duke maintained a menage trois with Lady Elizabeth (Bess) Foster, Georgiana's close friend and the duke's live-in mistress (later his second wife).
Georgiana's father had inherited not only the Spencer wealth but also that of the Duke of Marlborough, and she grew up in a series of palaces that changed with the seasons.
Georgiana enraged the king by wooing the vain, idle Prince of Wales into her inner circle, a move that later enabled her to save a fragile Whig coalition government from collapsing.

 Regency Personalities - Georgiana - Duchess of Devonshire
Georgiana was an intimate of Marie-Antoinette but France was in political unrest and hardly the place for a pregnant woman to be travelling without the protection of her husband too.
Georgiana did immerse herself in the social whirl, an acknowledged beauty and leader of fashion she developed the extreme style of high wigs topped with long feathers.
She remained in constant correspondence with her mother throughout her life and the early letters show some signs of her mother's uneasiness at Georgiana's malleable nature and the influences she was allowing herself to be drawn under, such as Charles Fox, the renowned politician and gambler.

Georgiana, however, is a perfect specimen of the educated woman in the Age of Reason: she dabbled in politics, geology, literature gambling, adultery and Continental travel - visiting Gibbon in Geneva and then becoming fast friends with Marie Antoinette.
Georgiana, who bore an out-of-wedlock child with politician Charles Grey, knew that her best friend was her husband's mistress, but that was the least of her problems.
Bess is consistently depicted as a jealous homewrecker anxious to supplant Georgiana and "show her up." Yet Foreman's own facts reveal a level of devotion on Bess's part to the Cavendishes that makes that dificult to believe.
