In the early 1950s Reid went to Mallorca for a holiday and in Deya happened to meet Robert Graves, who had lived on the island for many years. From 1953 Reid spent part of each year in Deya, and saw a great deal of Graves, indeed becoming his companion and secretary. Unfortunately for the friendship he fell in love with Margot Callas, Graves' muse, and they went to Spain - for which Robert never forgave him, thus breaking the connection.
