I thought that too but someone told me F was an Englishman. I would like to think it was Sandro. She was his first crush when he was a young boy. She was 5 years older than him and she was married before he ever had a chance to court her. It would be interesting, though scandalous, to image them as lovers, but what a thought!
Another thing about her love life is, as people say with Alix, why didn't she have more children? When I read in Lost Splendor that she was disappointed at Felix being a boy because she'd had 3 boys (2 died as babies

) and wanted a girl badly, and when he was a boy she dressed him as a girl, I had assumed she was older and couldn't have more kids. When I found out she was only 25 when Felix was born, I wondered why she didn't try again, or is that when she and her husband started, um, having seperate quarters, oh never mind, I feel like such a nosey gossip.
