In 1947, in Paris, Tanya met her future husband. They got together and married rather suddenly. The groom was Edmund Sheedy of Palm Beach, and New York. Edmund was the son of Mrs. Bryan DeForest Sheedy of New York and the late Dr. Sheedy, studied at Crawford Foreign Service School, Washington. After a honeymoon trip to St. Moritz the newlyweds settled into the high life in Palm Beach. However, it seems that Ed did leave a trail of broken hearts after himself. While Edmund seems like a very good catch on paper (young, handsome, rich, from a WASPy family), anyone can smell the subtle but present stench of a man who likes to date women by bucketloads and plays with them like they are just dolls. Even two children, two daughters (Lurelle, born on August 29, 1948 in Southampton and Tatiana, born in 1949, who sadly died as a baby), could not change that fact. To the surprise of absolutely no one, Ed and Tanya divorced in 1951. Ed never remarried, and died in 1982 in Palm Beach.
