Thank you for all of your research.

I have a question. Did Lady Caroline or Lady Oxford suffer extreme consequences for their adultery? Maria is exiled to a country house. I just wonder if Mary was right that she could be accepted in some circles, yet even Mary conditioned it on Henry and Maria marrying. I was wondering if the highest ranking nobility did whatever they wanted and still were present in society as before, while perhaps being laughed or sneered at, but not necessarily exiled.

It seems a given that Maria was frozen out of society for her immorality. I wondered if it had partially to do with rank. Perhaps people with more political influence or too much money to be ignored got away with immoral behavior.
