To Phyll with love

Author(s):

‘Bunny’ Austin married Phyllis Konstam in 1931. The press headline was ‘The Wedding of the Year’. Austin was a member of the British team that won the Davis Cup four years running (1933-36) and in 1938 was ranked number two in the tennis world. Phyllis Konstam was a star of the West End stage.

When a tennis star marries an actress the stage is set for high drama. Here is the story of such a marriage that began in glamour, continued in clash and controversy, and ended in a depth of purpose and love undreamt of at the beginning.

‘I found it very moving, very beautiful and very honest.’ Malcolm Muggeridge
