Lord Byron's personal life was marred with scandals

Without a doubt, Lord Byron's personal life was as well-known as his writings. In light of the fact that he reportedly had a sexual encounter when he was just 9 years old, his affairs could be compared to adult literature. It was rumored that Byron had an incestuous relationship with Augusta Leigh, his half-sister. Augusta's third daughter, Elizabeth Medora Leigh, is thought to be his offspring.

Although he is viewed as a playboy because of his numerous amorous liaisons, long-lost records seem to indicate that Lord Byron was bisexual. Lord Grey De Ruthyn, his mother's suitor, allegedly made passes on him while he was a little boy, causing the inclination to develop. His sexuality was affected by this, and he continued to have affairs with men while attending college in Cambridge and Harlow.
