While President, Harding allegedly had assignations with his mistress, Nan Britton, in the closet of the Oval Office. She claimed that Harding was the father of her daughter, born in 1919, and had promised to support her. While there is no proof of the allegations, which were published by Britton in a book "The President's Daughter" (1927), she reportedly had been obsessed with Harding, a friend of her father's, since she was a girl.

Warren G. Harding was born on November 2, 1865 in Corsica, Ohio, USA as Warren Gamaliel Harding. He was married to Florence Kling Harding.

The fifth U.S. president to die in office. Ironically, all presidents to have died in office since the first (William Henry Harrison in 1841) were elected 20 years apart: Harrison in 1840, Abraham Lincoln in 1860, James Garfield in 1880, McKinley in 1900, Warren G. Harding in 1920, Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1940, and John F. Kennedy in 1960. Ronald Reagan (elected 1980) was the victim of an assassin's bullet in 1981, but he survived and broke the 120-year curse that had plagued the U.S. Presidency.
