   We don't know much about Doyle's  wives, do we?  esp the Louise.   
      
      
              Jean Elizabeth Leckie, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s second wife,   
   was indeed a trained vocalist—she was accomplished as a singer and had   
   studied music. While she was not primarily known as a writer, she was   
   described as an intellectual and was deeply involved in her husband’s   
   life, including his spiritualist endeavors. After their marriage in   
   1907, she became known as Lady Conan Doyle and was recognized as a   
   spiritualist, sharing her husband’s beliefs and experiences in that field.   
      
              We know quite a bit about her personal life: she was   
   athletic, passionate, and devoted to her family, raising three children   
   with Conan Doyle. She was also known for her strong personality and was   
   remembered as a central figure in Conan Doyle’s later years, fully   
   supporting his public and private pursuits. However, she did not achieve   
   independent literary or artistic fame outside of her association with   
   her husband and the spiritualist community.
