Marriage
In November 1891, at the age of 32, and still a virgin, Ellis married the English writer and proponent of women`s rights, Edith Lees (none of his four sisters ever married). From the beginning, their marriage was unconventional (Edith Ellis was openly lesbian), and at the end of the honeymoon, Ellis went back to his bachelor rooms in Paddington, while she lived at Fellowship House. Their "open marriage" was the central subject in Ellis`s autobiography, My Life.
