She and Charles Michael Doyle were divorced on 11 November 1921 in Vancouver, British Columbia. Ethel petitioned for the divorce on the grounds of adultery and cruelty which were the only permissible grounds in Canada at the time. Since both Charles and Ethel remarried a month later, this was undoubtedly a mutually agreed upon divorce.4 She married second Alfred Lewarne on 26 December 1921 in Burnaby, British Columbia.2
