She had relationships with her mentor Arthur Murphy, with Augustus Hervey, 3rd Earl of Bristol and with Prince Henry, Duke of Cumberland.

[1] Murphy wrote plays, including The Citizen, a farce, first produced at Drury Lane in 1761, with Elliot in the role of Maria.

However, Garrick did not say that he would pay her, so she went to Spranger Barry's Crow Street Theatre in Dublin for a season.

[1] Elliot died after a long illness in a house in Greek Street in Soho that had been given to her by the Duke of Cumberland.

He arranged for her body to be buried and for a memorial to be created that includes lines attributed to Arthur Murphy.
