Ader and Puccini were lovers late in his life and it is believed that the role of Liu in Turandot was written with her voice in mind. Puccini's wife Elvira either didn't catch on to this love affair or just didn't care any more, but the liaison was untroubled by any of the jealous uproars she had created earlier in the composer's life.

He had no children of his own and died a few years ago.
