Philip Edward Morrell (4 June 1870 – 5 January 1943)[2] was a British Liberal politician.
Background[edit]
Morrell was the son of Frederic Morrell, a solicitor of Black Hall, Oxford, by his wife Harriette Anne, daughter of the President of St John's College, Oxford, and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Oxford, the Rev. Philip Wynter DD. The Morrell family had made its fortune as brewers of beer, and Philip Morrell's grandfather was a trustee of the family brewery. He was educated at Eton and Balliol College, Oxford.
Political career[edit]
He was adopted as the Liberal candidate for Henley in September 1902, on the advice of H. H. Asquith,[3] and was elected as such in the following election in 1906. He served in that constituency to 1910 and in Burnley from 1910 to 1918. He was the only non-Conservative MP for Henley.
Personal life[edit]
Morrell married in London on 8 February 1902 Lady Ottoline Cavendish-Bentinck, half-sister of the 6th Duke of Portland.[4] Lady Ottoline became an influential society hostess. They shared what would now be known as an open marriage for the rest of their lives.[5]
His extramarital affairs produced several children who were cared for by his wife, who also struggled to conceal evidence of his mental instability.[5] With Alice Louisa Jones, who worked at The Nation, Morrell had a son, Philip Hugh-Jones.[6][7] The Morrells themselves had two children (twins): a son, Hugh, who died in infancy; and a daughter, Julian Morrell (1906–1983),[5] whose first marriage was to Victor Goodman and second marriage was to Igor Vinogradoff.[8]
