Ferdinand Pinner Earle, Film Producer

As I mentioned in a previous post, Jean Harris, now the Marquise d'Espinay, was very friendly with the artist and film producer, Ferdinand Pinner Earle. He caused a great scandal in the early 1900s when he dumped his first wife in order to marry another woman.
He later divorced her and married for a third time. In 1914 a French court found him guilty of kidnapping his son, in a case reminiscent of Jean Harris's situation with her husband, Irving Drought Harris.
His last wife was a Belgian girl called Denise who was only sixteen when she married him. Earle died in 1951, leaving four sons and four daughters.
