She was the daughter of romance novelist Dame Barbara Cartland.
In her early life, she served as a Westminster city councillor from 1954 to 1965.
Her first marriage was to the Earl of Dartmouth and lasted from 1948 to 1976.
Following the death of Earl Spencer, her second husband, she married Count Jean-Francois de Chambrun in 1993, but the marriage only lasted three years.
