Two stories conflated?

[edit]

During World War I, Fellowes-Gordon... moved to New York City to stay with Elsa Maxwell and helping back England in its war effort, mainly through her social connections. Once at a party Maxwell and Fellowes-Gordon organised together to raise money, the main guest was Princess Helena Victoria of Schleswig-Holstein... they decided the guest list with the help of Noël Coward and among who attended there were: Lady Diana Cooper, Viola Tree, Oliver Messel, Bea Lillie, Gertrude Lawrence and Ivor Novello.

Sounds like a conflation of two stories, possibly with some copy deleted. Neither Noël Coward nor Gertrude Lawrence could have been in New York in World War I. Valetude (talk) 18:35, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
