Walter married Rose Coates in 1929 in Sydney. She was dying at this time and died soon after. His second marriage was to Alicia Hoskin on 9 April 1933 in London. Know as Sue, Walter and his wife toured the world for many years. A family story recounts Alicia as peeing off the top of the Eiffel Tower. Trophies and presents from this period were in part past to his only godchild Jonathan Ingram. Alicia and Walter were divorced in 1955. Walter married a third time in July 1956, to Beryl Elaine, née Carr, who survived him.

Famous quotes containing the word family:
“I think the ideal situation for a family is to be completely incestuous.”
—William Burroughs (b. 1914)
“One banquet in a rich family could feed a poor man’s family for half a year.”
—Chinese proverb.
“Providing for one’s family as a good husband and father is a water-tight excuse for making money hand over fist. Greed may be a sin, exploitation of other people might, on the face of it, look rather nasty, but who can blame a man for “doing the best” for his children?”
