Revered poet Robert Burns wrote the soul of Scotland into his verses and songs in the 18th century, including the New Years banger Auld Lang Syne. But even more fascinating was his incredibly tolerant wife, Jean Armour - who defied her beloved dad to be with him. She inspired his poetry, preserved his legacy, and even happily raised the children from Robert's frequent affairs!
