She also wrote under the pen name Alice Cholmondeley.In 1891, Elizabeth married Count Henning August von Arnim-Schlagenthin, a Prussian aristocrat, whom she had met during an Italian tour with her father. They lived in Berlin and eventually moved to the countryside where, in Nassenheide, Pomerania, the Arnims had their family estate. The couple had five children, four daughters and a son. The childrens tutors at Nassenheide included E. M. Forster and Hugh Walpole.n 1908 Arnim left Nassenheide to return to London.Count von Arnim died in 1910, and later that year she moved to Randogne, Switzerland, where she built the Chalet Soleil and entertained literary and society friends.From 1910 until 1913, she was a mistress of the novelist H.G. Wells.In 1916 she married John Francis Stanley Russell, 2nd Earl Russell, elder brother of Bertrand Russell. The marriage ended in acrimony, with Elizabeth fleeing to the United States and the couple separating in 1919, although they never divorced. In 1920, she embarked on an affair with Alexander Stuart Frere Reeves (1892–1984), a British publisher nearly 30 years her junior; he later married and named his only daughter Elizabeth in her honour.After leaving Germany, she lived, variously, in London, France and Switzerland.In 1939, on the outbreak of the Second World War, she returned to the United States, where she died of influenza at the Riverside Infirmary, Charleston, South Carolina, on 9 February 1941, aged 74. She was cremated at Fort Lincoln cemetery, Maryland and in 1947 her ashes were mingled with her brother Sydneys in the churchyard of St Margarets, Tylers Green, Penn, Buckinghamshire.The Latin inscription on her tombstone reads, parva sed apta (small but apt), alluding to her short stature.
