At the time, Városház Square (Városház tér) was still the city's marketplace, so even if Jancsi and Clara didn't necessarily spend time here, plenty of rumours about them undoubtedly spread among the market stalls of Fehérvár…

Following their divorce, Clara fell in love with a young Italian porter in Italy and married him, but they had little time together: she died sick and impoverished in Padua at the age of 42. Jancsi moved to America and earned a living as a café musician. He eventually remarried, taking Catherine Hadley—the daughter of a Yale University professor—as his wife, who came with a substantial dowry. They remained married until his death. An intriguing detail of the story is that Catherine Hadley was the cousin of Princess Clara Ward. Jancsi fell ill and passed away in America at the age of 69 in poverty, as his wife's fortune had been completely lost by then. On his deathbed, he confessed: the only true love of his life had been the princess, Clara Ward.
