Iron lady Indira Gandhi loved Feroze Gandhi dearly. Both of them had a love marriage and the housemates were not in favor of them, yet Indira persuaded Jawaharlal Nehru to marry Feroze, but the distance kept growing when she felt that he was being unfaithful to her.
If Feroze did not commit cheating to her, Indira would probably never step into the world of politics and her identity might not be there.
At the age of 16, Indira had rejected Feroze's first proposal. But three years later, her mother's death in 1936 made her very depressed. After this, Indira's proximity to Feroze began to grow.
According to journalist Nikhil Chakraborty, Feroze was immediately attracted to beautiful women. Feroze Gandhi had affairs with many women in London too, but Indira remained unaware of this.
Soon after the marriage Indira and Feroze started a ruckus. In the year 1941, when Indira was pregnant and Rajiv Gandhi was still in the womb, at that time Indira was aware that Feroze's affair was going on with another woman. Indira was very upset with this and started making distances from Feroze. According to Catherine Frank's book "Indira: The Life of Indira Nehru Gandhi", Feroze used to flirt with other women even after marrying Indira.
