She said yesterday that she would spend most of her time with Lady Wilde, and characterized the accusations against Oscar as falsehoods.
"She has the utmost confidence in him," said Mrs Leslie, "and that is shared by me and all the persons who know him well, and love him for his intellectuality and charming personality.
"He has been [ ]ied about unmercifully, and the report was even set going that his wife was to seek a divorce. I know, in fact, that they are living together now at a quiet resort in England.
I've yet to hear of one of the men or women who really know him believing the charges maliciously brought against him.
"O, yes, I suppose I shall see my former husband. Why not? Willie Wilde and I are the best of friends, even though we did find out that our marriage was a mistake. He is a genius, but a wayward boy with it all.
"Our mistake does not interfere in the least with the friendship that will always exist between his mother and me."
