Winston Churchill: THE SECRET REVEALED...

Churchill's affair with Lady Doris was revealed in an interview with Sir John Colville

Winston Churchill's secret lover REVEALED: Who was Lady Doris Castlerosse?

‘YOU were my ray of sunshine around the pool’, Churchill told her after four passionate holidays together in the South of France. The year is 1934 and the man who would become Britain's greatest prime minister is experiencing a crisis

At the age of 60, Winston Churchill was out of favor with the Conservative Party. And perhaps worse his 26-year marriage to wife Clementine was, like his once-promising political career, somewhat in the doldrums.

It was also at this time, it has been revealed, that he embarked on a passionate affair with the beautiful socialite Lady Doris Castlerosse. Between 1934 and 1936 the pair holidayed together four times in the South of France, as well as meeting in London.

During one of their trysts, he painted at least two portraits of Doris, including one of her sensuously reclining on a couch. That painting came back to haunt him - and led to an extraordinary episode nearly a decade later, at the height of the war.

The revelations are made in a documentary on Channel 4 next Sunday and are based on the research of Richard Toye, professor of history at Exeter University, and Dr. Warren Docktor, lecturer in international politics at Aberystwyth University.

Winston Churchill was not a highly sexed man and I don't think that in his 60 or 55 years' married life he ever slipped up except on this one occasion when Lady Churchill was not with him.

Sir John Colville

It follows their discovery of a taped 1985 interview with Churchill's former private secretary, Sir John Colville.
"This is a somewhat scandalous story," said Colville in the interview. "Winston Churchill was not a highly sexed man and I don't think that in his 60 or 55 years' married life he ever slipped up except on this one occasion when Lady Churchill was not with him.

"He certainly had an affair, a brief affair with Castlerosse as I think she was called. Doris Castlerosse, yes." The researchers further discovered a letter written to his lover in 1934.

"What fun we had at Maxine's. It was beautiful having you there. You were once again a manifest blessing and a ray of sunshine around the pool. I wonder whether we shall meet again next summer."

Churchill's wife Lady Clementine had no idea of the affair until years later

Castlerosse had been born Jessie Doris Delevigne in 1900 - the supermodel Cara Delevigne is her great niece - and had cut a swathe through London society in the Roaring Twenties, once declaring it would be "idiotic to wear shoes more than three or four times" and insisting on ordering her silk stockings from Paris, wearing them once and then discarding them.

After a series of high-profile affairs, she married Viscount Castlerosse aged 28 but didn't see married life as any reason to cease her extracurricular activities. And when she met Churchill, despite the 26-year age gap, the pair were instantly smitten.

"They had an affair. Both my parents talked about it and knew about it," says her niece (and Cara's aunt) Caroline Delevigne.

"My mother had many stories to tell about [the affair] when they stayed at my aunt's house in Berkeley Square. When Winston was coming to visit her the staff were all given the day off. And the next day Doris confided in my mother about it. They were good friends as well as being sisters-in-law."

But as Hitler's rise to power in Germany began to present a threat to peace, Churchill broke off the relationship and concentrated once again on his political career. In 1938 Doris and Viscount Castlerosse divorced and she moved to America.

It was while she was there that the most extraordinary episode took place. In 1942, with the war in Europe at its most desperate, Churchill flew to Washington for a summit with President Roosevelt. But the war was not the only thing on his mind.

The PM was also on a mission to arrange the discreet return of his former lover to Britain before anyone could get wind of their relationship. He was concerned that at such a precarious point in the war, the portrait he had painted of her and which she had kept might leave him open to blackmail.

The plan worked: that summer she secured a place on a seaplane and returned to Britain, still bearing the portrait. Tragically the two never met again.

Just a few months later, on December 9, 1942, she died of an overdose of sleeping pills at London's Dorchester Hotel.

And until now nobody ever let slip about the affair. Even Churchill's wife Clementine, after discovering some of Doris's love letters 15 years after her death, kept a dignified silence. "She was worried about it for months," says Professor Toye.

Lady Doris Castlerosse led a wildlife and loved an extracurricular affair

"Clementine would say to Colville, 'I always thought Winston had been faithful', and Colville tried to reassure her by saying that many husbands on a moonlit night in the South of France have strayed, it's not such a big deal."

Ultimately, however, the two researchers believe that rather than see the episode as a slur on Churchill's character, his affair and the way he dealt with it adds a new dimension to the man.

"When he's leading his country in a global war and under enormous pressure, he comes to fear that people might get wind of the affair he'd had with Lady Castlerosse," says Docktor.

"It underscores his greatness that in the midst of all that pressure he can break off to deal with that potential problem. Churchill has been deified but this story allows us to view him as a far more complex character."
