Philip Edward Morrell (4 June 1870 – 5 January 1943)[2] was a British Liberal politician.

Morrell married in London on 8 February 1902 Lady Ottoline Cavendish-Bentinck, half-sister of the 6th Duke of Portland.

[5] His extramarital affairs produced several children who were cared for by his wife, who also struggled to conceal evidence of his mental instability.

[5] With Alice Louisa Jones, who worked at The Nation, Morrell had a son, Philip Hugh-Jones.

[6][7] The Morrells themselves had two children (twins): a son, Hugh, who died in infancy; and a daughter, Julian Morrell (1906–1983),[5] whose first marriage was to Victor Goodman and second marriage was to Igor Vinogradoff.
