Lord Nelson and Lady Hamilton met in Naples and fell madly in Love.
Lady Hamilton followed the admiral when he was recalled to London and then later they retired to Rudhall Manor which was the home of a friend, Thomas Westaling.
Then the affair became public knowledge and there is a room in the house named after the war hero.
Nelson's scandalous love affair with Emma Hamilton
Vice-Admiral Nelson was first introduced to Emma Hamilton in 1793, when he visited Naples to gather reinforcements to fight the French.
Nelson had been happily married for nearly a decade up to this point, and once wrote of his wife Frances Nisbet: 'Until I married her I never knew happiness and I am certain she will continue to make me happy for the rest of my life.'
However he immediately fell under Emma's spell, and the two began an affair with the knowledge and blessing of Emma's husband, who invited Nelson to stay with them in London two years later.
And together they had a daughter, Horatia, in 1801.
In late February, Nelson met his daughter, who was living with a Mrs Gibson, her wet nurse and carer, in London.
Nelson's family were aware of the pregnancy, and his clergyman brother wrote to Emma praising her virtue and goodness.
Nelson and Emma continued to write letters to each other when he was away at sea, and she kept every one.
His wife, known as Fanny, was left heartbroken and wrote letters begging her husband to end his relationship with Lady Hamilton and return to her. Nelson, however, returned them unopened and never lived with his wife again.
