    OK, here I go.

    Answer1.png

    So my answer is George Sand, real name, Amantine Lucile Aurore Dupin de Francueil.

    George_Sand.jpg



    Famous relationships with Frédéric Chopin, and many others.
    From the Wiki

    "Sand had romantic affairs with the novelist Jules Sandeau (1831), the Polish-Russian Prince Norbert Przanowski (February 1832- Summer 1833) the writer Prosper Mérimée, the dramatist Alfred de Musset(summer 1833 – March 1835), Louis-Chrysostome Michel, the actor Pierre-François Bocage, the writer Charles Didier, the novelist Félicien Mallefille, the politician Louis Blanc, and the composer Frédéric Chopin(1837–1847).[17] Later in her life, she corresponded with Gustave Flaubert, and despite their differences in temperament and aesthetic preference, they eventually became close friends. Sand also engaged in an intimate romantic relationship with actress Marie Dorval.[18][19] The two met in January 1833, after Sand wrote Dorval a letter of appreciation following one of her performances. Sand wrote about Dorval, including many passages where she is described as smitten with Dorval."

    Merveilleuse! Tres bon! French, female, author! @JimInOz has it all. Aaron Eckhart played George in Erin Brockovich. Hour glass (sands). So George Sand is the answer. A nom de plume.

    That was an impressive solve @JimInOz

    I didn’t have the slightest inkling on that one. Fair play to @Matty01 & @pdxleaf for working Blondie and Boy George in their, though :D
