1942 - 2017
Christine Keeler was a British model and showgirl, best known for her involvement in the Profumo affair in the early 1960s, a scandal that revealed her relationships with high-profile politicians and influenced British political life. Born on February 22, 1942, in London, she became a cultural icon and symbol of the social upheaval of the era. Keeler's testimony before a court and the public's fascination with the scandal ultimately led to significant political repercussions, including the resignation of War Secretary John Profumo.
