In 1928, Gamble married the Times sports journalist Dudley Carew. The marriage lasted only few months. In the early 1930s Anthea Gamble was one of Brenda Dean Paul's closest friends. Like Paul, Carew was also a morphine addict. She was prosecuted twice in 1932, both cases involving Paul.

In the late 1930s, Carew moved to Yorkshire.
