The Life And Death Of Queen Camilla's Brother, Mark Shand

Mark Shand got married to Clio Goldsmith in 1990. Their wedding was a showstopper, and they ended up going on a honeymoon that lasted four months. Four years later, the two welcomed their daughter, Ayesha Shand, and they purchased a home and set about their life as a family of three. Sadly, it quickly fell apart.

"We bought a house at the bottom of a valley in Wiltshire," Clio told Vanity Fair of her marriage to Mark at that time. "Very dark, very miserable, very isolated. Mark set off traveling, and I was alone with this baby. I had had a terrible birth, so I had to be operated on. And I was very traumatized. One day I decided I've got to react. He'd been months away, so I wrote him a note that said, 'Gone to live in Rome with Ayesha. If you want to join us, here's the plane ticket.'"

Mark took the hint from his wife, and the three tried to make it work for the next seven years, making Italy their home. Even then, Clio claimed that her husband's heart simply wasn't in it. "I couldn't live with Mark in that indifferent way. It was too painful," she said. "He got very very obsessed by his charity, Elephant Family. Which was fantastic for him ... but our marriage just broke to pieces." They eventually divorced in 2009.
