She signed her name on the marriage certificate as 'F. Kaye' and gave her age as '18', though she may have been younger. The marriage was not a fulfilled one, she later divorced her husband in the aftermath of his passionate affair with Margot Fonteyn which began in 1937 when Fonteyn was seventeen years old.
