Seems she started feeling a bit neglected and so went off and had a dalliance to spice her life up a bit... Sylvian found out, and she realised she'd wrecked everything and ended up regretting it, but by that time it was too late..the damage had been done.

By the way Ingrid's level of photographic skill is top notch and incredibly insightful in many instances.
And, I actually enjoy her vocal additions to david's work, especially when i hear the music without it. There is a wonderful sense of connection and caring embodied in it for me.

No I don't think anything would be lost for me about David, since there are always two sides to any story and it isn't coming from him.
I recently read Andy Taylor's biography and it didn't make me think badly of any of the member's of DD. It was respectfully done. I guess it did sort of bring a level of reality to it all and has enabled me to release some stuff from the past.
I find that reading an autobiography isn't just about the people but also about a certain time and culture... It is just very appealing to me. I like to see how other's perceived things of a certain era.
So guess I'm the only one here who enjoys that?
