Thank you for the post. We have tried to trace if WGT returned to UK 1926... there are no divorce records stated and he is named as father on sons birth certificate and as living in Bath, working as a commercial clerk.We understand he had a daughter with Gwendolyn, also in 1926,and do not wish to cause distress to either families. 
Thank you again
