LOINS OF LONGLEAT, LORD BATH, LEFT NO INHERITANCE FOR HIS SEVENTY FOUR "WIFELETS"

DAILY MAIL UK: LOINS OF LONGLEAT LORD BATH'S WILL LEAVES OUT HIS 74 WIFELETS  by Martin Robinson   Excellent photos!  The Wifelets and the Lord were the featured subject here at Mistress Manifesto BlogSpot in May of 2021.  You can find those posts in the archive.

EXCERPTS : To the public at large, Aleander Thynn cultivated the image of the pony-tailed polygamist living the life o a libertine with scores of lovers while cushioned by great wealth, privileges and the security of a 10,000 acre estate.   ....

Not long after marrying, the free-spirited Bath had another woman on his arm, Tara Moon, a model turned interior designer.  As the Sixties made way for the Seventies, the Longleat harem began....  The women came and went.  Some were given cottages on the estate, though there was no noblesse oblige - they had to pay rent.  He coined the word ' wifelet' to describe these omen,  Glamour girls, actresses, singers, would-be models and some mere concubines, they were all recruited. ... They included Jo Jo Laine, the former wife of Wing's guitarist Denny Laine and an unashamed hedonist, Bond Girl Sylvana Henriques, Chinese artist Chung Yee Change, Sixties model-turned pub landlady Irene Barnett, the actress Cherri Gilham and Nola Fontaine, the outrageous cabaret singer.

To reiterate some information:

At 87. Alexander Thynn - 7th Marquess of Bath, long married to Anna Gael Gyarmathy, died of Coronavirus-19 in March of this year.  He had an estate with many cottages called Longleat, and he had many women installed as "Wifelets" as he called them, living there.  Many of these women were artists. A forever-hippie,

LORD BATH (THE LOINS OF LONGLEAT) AND THIS 75 WIFELETS : ALEXANDER THYNN - THE 7TH MARQUESS OF BATH : MISTER OF THE MONTH!

Imagine, those of you who are eternally single and like to be alone. Imagine, those of you who are keeping just one or two relationships, what it's like to be 79 years old and have one legal wife, Anna Gael Gyarmathy, and approximately 74 wifelets! This is why our MISTER OF THE MONTH, ALEXANDER THYNN, THE 7th MARQUESS OF BATH, also called LORD BATH, is also called "The Loins of Longleat!"

Of course he's not legally married to more than one woman but this man has a reputation that puts the American publisher of Playboy magazine, Hugh Hefner, to shame! Why? Because Hefner, unlike Lord Bath, had one wife who he divorced, and some longer term relationships, and many - maybe thousands of lovers - and in recent years he's been seen with a number of interchangeable blonds who have lived with him but who are thought to be mostly props. Hefner 's made a lot of money on women, he's spent a lot of money on women, and he's had himself a harem, but Lord Bath gives a wifelet a cottage, supports her, and let's her stay the years, if she wants to: most of his wifelets are not at all the Playboy Bunny or model types. His wifelets are far more like mistresses. Lord Bath has great riches, an estate with a lot of land and many cottages. And women are still fighting over him! It's been in the news.

His one legal wife, Anna, has not divorced him. She mostly lives in France but comes and stays for a week or so a month. (This to is so like many wives who know and allow their husbands to have mistresses.) Together they have two children, the son predictably will inherit the estate and has taken over the business end of the estate.

When the Lord dies, quite possibly all the wifelets will have to go. How much you wanna bet that none of them will be truly stranded?
