The first woman in Britain to marry for entertainment – and why it took six weeks to consummate the marriage: She won the husband, flat and Bahamas holiday… but this is the price she had to pay

What do you wear when you slide into bed with a man for the first time when you’ve only just met him, know nothing about him – ‘not even how he takes his coffee’ – yet married him that day?

‘I didn’t wear a flannelette nightie, up to here,’ she says, gesturing to her neck. ‘But nor was I going to be wearing something silky. I didn’t know him! In the end, I wore my jammies.’
