She married Anthony Armstrong-Jones prretty much on the rebound and that 
ended in divorce after a couple of children.  He remarried Lindsay 
someone, but , as we know, she never remarried. All very sad.  She was a 
victim of her times, when divorced people could not remarry and 
especially the Royals couldn't go there. Apart from her unpopularity, 
remember the much-divorced Mrs. Simpson and the furor all that caused.
