She sent him to Eton, but subsequently became financially embroiled with an Irish barrister, J.P. Maccabe, who claimed to be her nephew.

He enlisted: my hopes were blasted of ever seeing him either respectable in life, or a man of education...I knew my unfortunate boy well and feared the worst. My son's uncle...Edward Hussey, refused to have anything to do with him."
