Thanks you guys, for responding. Grandduchessella, that's sort of what I was getting it -how their relationship was. At the risk of wording this completely wrong and offending someone, as someone who was deeply religious she probably viewed homosexuality as a sin. So that's basically what I was wondering -if that could have been sort of a conflict of interest for her somehow. On the one hand there's her brother that she's very close to and on the other there's the faith she has dedicated her life to. Even though it might have never openly come up in conversation it's nice to know that Ella chose love instead of judgement and harshness with her brother. This is one of the reasons I consider her to be a model for everyone, no matter what their religion.
