Arise, Dame Babs

[Arthur Little]

... what a "carry on"! Barbara Windsor - the actress famous for her more recent portrayal of Peggy Mitchell, fiesty proprietrix of the Queen Vic in the television soap, 'Eastenders' - is to be awarded a Damehood in the New Year's Honours List.

She she sure has come a long way from being the wife of bank robber Ronnie Knight to 'role model' ! (£6 million armed robbery at a Security Express depot in Shoreditch, East London)

Relationships and personal life

Windsor has married three times:

Ronnie Knight, Krays associate (married 2 March 1964,[20] divorced January 1985)
Stephen Hollings, actor (married 12 April 1986 in Jamaica,[21] divorced 1995)
Scott Mitchell, former actor and recruitment consultant (married 8 April 2000[22])

Before her marriage to Ronnie Knight, she had a one night stand with Reggie Kray.[23] While married to Knight, she had a well publicised affair with Sid James. During the 1960s, she also had a brief relationship with footballer George Best.[24]

In her 2001 autobiography, All of Me, Windsor talks about her five abortions, the first three of which took place before the age of 21, the last when she was 42.
