Wilde married Constance Lloyd in 1884, and they had two sons, but the relationship ended in 1893. Wilde then had a relationship with Lord Alfred Douglas, which eventually led to a conviction for "gross indecency" in 1895 for which he was sentenced to two years hard labor. He later wrote ''The Ballad of Reading Gaol'' and ''De Profundis'' about his experiences in prison.
