Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon - Townsend divorced his wife
Time: 1952
Place: United Kingdom
Details: After Townsend divorced his wife in 1952, however, rumors spread about him and Margaret; the divorce, and shared grief over the almost simultaneous death of the king, likely helped them come together within the privacy of Clarence House, where the princess had her own apartment.
