Dickens's adult life was affected by his wife, from whom he separated in 1859, and actress Ellen Ternan, with whom he conducted an affair* until his death in 1870. *Some historians deny that an actual "affair" existed between Ternan and Dickens, but he supported Ellen and her family for many years and went to great lengths to conceal their relationship. It's been said that they had a son together, who died in infancy, though no hard evidence substantiates this. Ternan went on, after Dickens's death, to marry and have children.

What was dickens adult life and career like?

After a comfortable childhood, and a traumatic adolescence (working in a factory while his father was in debtors' prison), by age 16, Dickens was a freelance journalist, and by 20 he had become a reporter for two London newspapers. At 21, he began to contribute a series of impressions and sketches to other newspapers and magazines, signing some of them "Boz." These scenes of London life went far to establish his reputation and were published in 1836 - when he was 24 - as Sketches by Boz, his first book. At that time he got married, and at 25 published what became one of the most popular works of the time: The Pickwick Papers. From this time on, Dickens was famous, and materially comfortable.
