English singer, Florence Welch, wasn't always one of the most popular international musical acts, matter of fact, after being encouraged by her grandmother to begin pursuing music, she witnessed her parents get divorced which resulted in her mother eventually marrying her next door neighbor and also witnessed her grandmother, who had bipolar disorder, commit suicide at the tender age of 13-years-old. Her band Florence + The Machine's career was launched when their debut album, Lungs, became critically acclaimed and she's thrived in the music realm ever since.
Coincidentally, Florence Welch and another strong woman happen to be doppelgangers, who goes by the name of Joan of Arc who helped free the French from British control. Unfortunately, Joan was apprehended and handed over to the English in 1430 and the following year, Joan of Arc was burned at the stake at the tender age of 19-years-old. Florence might have had a tremulous youth but at least she didn't go out like Joan.
