I was reading up on Edward's dad, Ernest Shackleton, a while back and thought that being buried on South Georgia he wouldn't get many visitors.

Lucette Destouches wasn't 106 then, but she is now!

Family of the famous thread, shurely?  Or have I missed something?  

[charon 4,943]

Aye, fair enough.

 

My bad.

 

Eta or am I? Ex family, ex wife?

[Toast 16,132]

Not a widow. 

She is still 'family of the famous' as she is the mother of Bryan's kids.

 

This is not as bad a crime as putting her in the 'useless daft bimbos' thread though.  She was no Kerry Katona.

He started dating her after he was 26, right?

See, let this be a lesson—don’t wake up at 3am and pop on for a quick look-see at DL updates or you’ll groggily read ‘Tory’ as ‘Tony’ and go into a fit of dementia trying to figure out about Tony Bennett’s widow and ‘just when the hell did Tony Bennett die’?!
