Celebrity's Relative

The Resume

    (1941- )
    Born in Leicester, England, United Kingdom
    Birth name was Sandra Patricia Jarvis-Daily
    Married Saudi billionaire Adnan Khashoggi (1961-74)
    Reportedly received a divorce settlement of $874 million
    As of 2017, manages a London flower shop she co-owns with one of her sons

Why she might be annoying:

    During her marriage to Adnan, she slept with Sammy Davis, Jr., Warren Beatty and Roman Polanski.
    After their divorce, she conducted simultaneous affairs with two Members of Parliament, Jonathan Aitken and Winston Churchill (the grandson of the WWII Prime Minister).
    On her first date with Churchill, he apologized for being late, explaining that he had just come from the hospital where his wife had given birth.
    She and Aitken had a daughter out of wedlock.
    Her second husband, Richard Coombes, had previously dated her daughter.
    She blew her settlement on a jet-set lifestyle.
    She reportedly inspired Jackie Collins’ trashy novel, ‘The Stud.’

Why she might not be annoying:

    Society photographer Norman Parkinson described her as ‘the most naturally beautiful woman I have ever photographed.’
    Adnan conducted an affair with one of her best friends.
    She wore a hidden microphone in her bra to get evidence to help convict three men who tried to blackmail her over her affair with Churchill.
    She said, ‘Of course, I no longer have the kind of wealth I enjoyed when I was with Adnan, but I consider myself rich in experience,’ adding ‘I have danced with a king under the stars, and once Frank Sinatra sang just for me.’
