Churchill may have cheated with society's wildest woman | Daily Mail Online

QuoteWinston Churchill was in one of those ?black dog? depressing periods in his life, the ?wilderness years?, as he called them, when he was frustrated, nothing was going right and there seemed no outlet for all that potential for greatness he felt inside him.

He was out of Parliament following the rout of the Tories in the 1929 general election and broke, having lost a fortune in the Wall Street Crash that same year. He threw himself into a heady social life. He drank and gambled and holidayed abroad as the guest of his chum, the wealthy newspaper magnate Lord Beaverbrook.

At Beaverbrook?s villa in France in the spring of 1930, he was introduced to the sassy Doris Delevingne, a society temptress who happens to be the great-aunt of supermodel Cara Delevingne.
