Simone/Closeau backstory


Is it ever explained how Simone and Clouseau got married? It seems to have been part of some sort of master plan between Simone and Charles Lytton, as they obvously knew each other. My point is, she is clearly too sophisticated and way out of Closeaus league, a woman like her would never fall for someone like Closeau.

Yup, it probably was some sort of a master plan. She didn't seem to love him at all!

They'd been married for I think 10 years by the time of the pink panther story, so that would be some advance planning! However, I've often wondered how they ended up together, as she's so sophisticated. Maybe she was on the rebound from another relationship and he seemed endearing and devoted...
