Georgiana Maria Leicester, Lady de Tabley was an English aristocrat, and the wife of John Leicester, 1st Baron de Tabley. Married in 1810, the couple resided at the Leicester country estate Tabley House in Cheshire, where they raised two sons. Following Lord de Tabley's death in 1827, Lady Georgina formed a close relationship with her late husband's nephew, Reverend Frederick Leicester, who had recently joined the household as a clergyman. Their controversial decision to marry him in 1828, at a time when aunt-nephew unions were prohibited by the Church of England, ignited scandal but did not permanently damage Lady Georgina's standing among the aristocracy. She retained the title of Lady De Tabley until she died in 1859.
