Arthur Hoare was a journalist, working as a foreign correspondent first in Holland and then in France. Aimée was a professional singer, who graduated from the Kiev Conservatoire and later travelled widely in Europe with various operatic companies. Cecil’s parents met and married in France, and later moved to Holland where they lived until 1898; they separated when Cecil was 6 years of age.
