He was known for his daring feats and his larger-than-life personality, capturing the imagination of the public. However, behind this facade lay a man plagued by inner demons and personal struggles. Hughes' relationships with women were particularly enigmatic. He was linked to numerous famous actresses and socialites, yet his true feelings and intentions towards them remain unclear. His marriages were tumultuous, and his interactions with women were often fraught with drama and speculation.

The true extent of his wealth and influence, as well as the inner workings of his business empire, continue to elude historians and biographers.
