Editor's Take:
Christine Keeler was nineteen when she was drawn into the scandal that shook British politics. Profumo, the war minister, had lied to Parliament about their affair. She had also seen a Soviet naval attaché. The press treated her harshly. Later accounts have been kinder, seeing her as a young woman exploited by powerful men. Her story has been retold in films and television dramas. She died in 2017, aged 75. Her name remains tied to one of Britain's biggest political scandals.
