Nellie Heath
Ellen Maurice Heath (1873-1962) was an English painter.

She was the daughter of Richard Heath (1831-1912), described by the British Library as a "writer on Edgar Quinet".

ODNB on Constance Garnett: Following the difficult birth of her son, David Garnett, born at Brighton on 9 March 1892, Constance had no more children and virtually no sexual relations with Edward. He assisted her professionally, writing prefaces as required, but they agreed to live together yet apart—as would be confirmed by his liaison with Nellie Heath. Constance, who hated scenes, overcame her frustration by a will to work and be independent. source: Patrick Waddington, ‘Garnett, Constance Clara (1861–1946)’, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, May 2007 accessed 22 May 2013
