'Mistress of Churchill' claim

edit

She isn't even in the index of the Roy Jenkins biography of Churchill. CalJW 06:23, 7 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

I agree. The original claim appeared in a very scrappy contribution from some unregistered user. I think it's a mistake. I haven't exhausted Google's possibilities, but I can't find any reference to this. Also, he apparently held Hermione's mother, Pamela Plowden, in very high regard. Surely, for him to conduct an affair with the daughter of a women he had once proposed to would have been extremely scandalous? Not to say it couldn't happen, but I think we need a source. Therfore, I'm removing the claim that Hermione was 'former mistress of Winston Churchill' for the present, as well as the 'uncited sources' tag. If anyone can source this, do please restore the information. Crosbiesmith 13:37, 9 October 2005 (UTC)Reply
