Lord Byron and ‘She Walks In Beauty’

There’s a rumour that Byron wrote this poem to his half sister Augusta and that they had an incestuous relathionship. I’ve not found very much to substantiate this so I’m wondering if anyone could shed any light or offer an alternative set of events?
I heard that it was about his cousins wife? lmao

I've found that too but I was unsure because of what else I'd found
