From Paris and Jazz: A Collaboration Propelling Sidney Bechet to Fame Posted on October 30, 2010 by Maggie

During 1951, while on tour in Algiers, Sidney Bechet met Ziegler again. They were married in Cannes in front of a large crowd. However, Bechet soon took up a mistress, Jacqueline Pekaldi, with whom he had a son. Bechet kept up two separate families, and even wrote songs named after both of his women.
