They were titled the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, but she was never received in court. They maintained a bland lifestyle of high society functions and travel.
The Duchess died 04/16/1986, Paris, France.

Source Notes
R.H. Oliver quotes the attending physician in a letter in AA 1/1937, as "he recalled the unusual circumstances of her birth." AA 4/1945 wrote, "The physician, Dr. Allen, said she was born between 9:00 to 11:00 AM." In Wynn magazine 10/1944, Blanca Holmes wrote, "In a letter from her, she gave 6:00 to 7:00 AM, rectified by Homes to 7:00 AM."
(Sabian Symbols No.982 gives 7:00 AM. AA 4/1950 has "between 9:00 and 11:00 AM." AA 11/1957 gives 5:30 AM. PC quotes AA 8/1945 for 6:00 to 7:00 AM. AQ Srping 1937 stated, "We have unimpeachable information of 5:30 AM, Baltimore."
Barbara May writes, 11/1988, "The book by Charles Higham, "The Secret Life of the Duchess of Windsor," McGraw-Hill, 1988, gives June 19, 1895, a year earlier. Higham quotes the date from a census report on the Warfield household in 1900. He claims that no B.C. exists and that her parents were married 11/19/1896, so the child was illigitimate. He suggests that her birth and pro-Nazi sympathies were the reason that she was unable to marry the Prince." Inasmuch as Higgins writes of gossip and scandal, often quite extreme and unsubstantiated, in his unauthorized biographies, his reports are highly questionable.
