Of his sixty-two years old, the American writer forty was bound by marriage. Ernest Hemingway has been married four times. In addition to this, there were three more platonic loves. And in the middle - Marlene Dietrich herself.
The first woman to whom the nineteen-year-old Hemingway offered his hand and heart rejected him
Having gone in the eighteenth year of the twentieth century to the war as a driver from the Red Cross. Ernest was wounded, then the writer received an order for courage and was treated in a Milan hospital.
Agnes was seven years older than Ernest Hemingway. The girl responded to his love with affection, but their relationship remained platonic. Agnes was a nurse in a hospital in Milan during the First World War.
So one of her patients was Ernest, who fell in love with her. Kurovski was remembered by relatives and colleagues as cheerful, as well as prone to flirt. She was somewhat older than Hemingway, so her love for him was more manifested by maternal notes.
In her letters to Ernest often see the appeal "cute boy", as well as "baby". Agnes happily supported talks about the wedding, about plans for the future, but she was not ready in her heart to leave everything and move to America. In the strict atmosphere of the hospital, they would hardly have been able to advance further. But, apparently, this was also noticed, since very soon Agnes was sent to another city. At one time, Hemingway and Kurovsky corresponded amiably, then moved away.
Headley richardson
Upon returning home, an American writer met a shy girl. Headley Richardson, who was also eight years older than Ernest, had a not so simple fate. Her mother died, and dad committed suicide.
Acquaintance with Richardson saved Ernest from love for Kurovsky. A year later, they officially formalized their relationship and left for Paris. In the future, "The holiday that is always with you" will be composed about this. The lovers had a son, Jack. Richardson was a wonderful wife and mother.
The first couple of years were almost perfect. Until the end of his days, Ernest considered breaking up with Hedley Richardson a mistake of a lifetime.
Pauline Pfeiffer
The alliance with Richardson broke up when he met Pauline. Thirty-year-old American who came to work in the popular fashion gloss. She was smart and very witty. Pernifer fell in love with Ernest without memory, and he also could not resist her.
Her sister, either by accident or intentionally let slip Richardson about their relationship. Headley made a fatal mistake. Instead of letting Hemingway and Pauline's relationship fade away, she asked her husband to leave Pfeiffer for several months to test her feelings. Naturally, in separation they only got stronger.
Having married in a Paris church, Hemingway and Pfeiffer left for their honeymoon. Pauline really adored her husband and tirelessly repeated that they are one. In the late twenties a couple was born a son. With all Pfeiffer’s love for her son, her husband occupied the first place in her heart. At this time, Ernest Hemingway's popularity grew.
The meeting of the famous writer Ernest Hemingway and the Hollywood artist
The acquaintance of the fatal Marlene Dietrich happened while traveling on an ocean liner. As Marlene recalled as a result, love happened at first sight and remained forever. And it did not matter that correspondence replaced meetings. As Ernest narrated, he and Dietrich loved each other very much, but never woke up together.
Their meetings were very rare, the time spent without Hemingway Marlene considered pain. But communication with the American writer has always been an inexplicable secret for Dietrich. Their relationship has remained platonic. The souls of Ernest Hemingway and Marlene Dietrich were closer than the most passionate lovers.
Martha Gellhorn
At Christmas, a twenty-seven-year-old journalist went with her mother and brother to Florida. Gellhorn was a fighter for justice. The book she wrote brought her great fame. Suddenly, the Gellhorns ended up in Key West. The girl liked the name of the bar, so they visited it. Ernest was in the establishment. After a couple of minutes, the future spouses met.
In the meantime, Hemingway’s personal life was "going downhill." Pauline, who found out about Martha Gellhorn, threatened her husband to rush from the balcony. Hemingway himself was inflated. In the late thirties, he left Pauline and settled with Gellhorn in a hotel. In the winter of the fortieth writer got a divorce, and Ernest and Martha got married.
Mary welsh
The daughter of a lumberjack, with her own efforts made her way into journalism. Already at the third meeting, Ernest admitted to Mary that he did not know her, but would like her to become his wife. Having had an accident, Hemingway lay with a concussion in a medical facility. Welch wore flowers there. Martha announced that enough was enough for her.
In the spring of the forty-sixth year, Hemingway and Welsh got married, although the girl had concerns that the relationship would be unsuccessful. But then an event happened that firmly tied her to her husband. Welsh had an ectopic pregnancy, a woman lost a lot of blood, then Ernest did not leave his wife for a minute.
Adriana Ivanchich
Hemingway later had another love. Like the first, it was platonic. In the late forties, while traveling to Italy, Ernest met with eighteen-year-old Ivanchich. It was a beautiful girl from a family of Dalmatian sailors. Ernest fell in love with her without memory.
Their romance was platonic and lasted seven years, during which time they wrote dozens of letters to each other. At that time, Ernest was already in his fourth marriage for two years, so he could not openly show feelings for Adrian.
Specialists call Ivanchich the forgotten muse of an American writer. It is believed that it was their relationship that inspired Ernest. During the years of their communication, Hemingway created a work that earned him a prize.
