John Ruskin was a Victorian artist, poet, architect, thinker and nurtured a group of young artists, but it was his marriage to Effie Gray that became social news. After six years of marriage, Effie asked for the marriage to be terminated on the grounds that the couple "never really became husband and wife". The lawsuit became a topic of conversation. John Ruskin admitted that the two had never slept together, but defended himself by saying that his wife's "certain situation" undermined his passion.
