About Zelda Fitzgerald
She grew up in a wealthy Southern family and was known locally for her beauty and lively spirit. The couple’s wild antics and constant partying made them the “enfants terribles” of the Jazz Age. Their marriage suffered from alleged infidelity and bitter recriminations. After moving to Europe, Zelda’s mental health declined, leading to psychiatric care; doctors diagnosed her with schizophrenia, though later analyses suggest bipolar disorder.
