On 22 August 1822, she married Stephen Eaton (1780–1834) of Ketton Hall, Rutland. Her husband was a partner in the Eaton, Cayley & Co.

In June 1815 Waldie was on a family visit to Brussels, coinciding with the Waterloo Campaign. She wrote an account of her experiences, published in 1817 under the title of "Narrative of a Residence in Belgium, during the Campaign of 1815, and of a Visit to the Field of Waterloo. By an Englishwoman" (London). A second edition was published in 1853 as "The Days of Battle, or Quatre Bras and Waterloo; by an Englishwoman resident in Brussels in June 1815". The edition of 1888 was entitled "Waterloo Days". In 1820 she published anonymously, in three volumes, "Rome in the Nineteenth Century" (Edinburgh); second and third editions appeared respectively in 1822 and 1823. A fifth edition, in two volumes, was published in 1852, and a sixth in 1860. The book was heavily quoted by Augustus John Cuthbert Hare.
