Pauline Tennant

Pauline Laetitia, Lady Rumbold (born Tennant, formerly Pitt-Rivers and Graham; 6 February 1927 – 6 December 2008) was a British actress, poet and socialite.

Family
Born into an aristocratic family, she was the daughter of Hon. David Tennant and Hermione Baddeley. She was married three times, to Julian Pitt-Rivers (1946–1953); Euan Douglas Graham, grandson of the 5th Duke of Montrose (1954–1970); and Sir Anthony Rumbold, 10th Baronet (from 1974 until his death in 1983).

Stage and screen
Tennant played on the West End stage in Ben Travers' She Followed Me About (1943) and alongside Fay Compton in No Medals (1947). She also appeared in two films: Great Day (1945, screen debut) and The Queen of Spades (1949).

In an obituary for The Independent, the writer Philip Hoare described Tennant as "a true bohemian aristocrat—a tension of qualities that were literally in her genes". During her younger years she was often seen at the bar of the prestigious Ritz, London.
