Sally Grosvenor, Duchess of Westminster
Sally Grosvenor, Duchess of Westminster, née Perry (1909 – 30 May 1990), was the wife of Gerald Grosvenor, 4th Duke of Westminster.
== Early life ==
The Duchess was one of three extramarital daughters of Muriel Perry. She, her twin sister Elizabeth and three years younger sister Diana were raised by a Miss Coutts and seldom visited by their mother, who was busy serving as a nurse in the First World War and who appeared to have no interest in their upbringing; she would later serve as nurse in the Second World War and be awarded eight medals and an OBE.〔 The girls' only visitor was a man they knew as "Uncle Bodger", who would come several times a year with presents. The man was Roger Ackerley, who, on his death, left his son, J. R. Ackerley, a letter in which he confessed to be the girls' father and asked him to care for them. Diana's birth was never registered and they were all given their mother's surname. Ackerley described the lives of his half-sisters in his 1968 memoir: "They had no parental care, no family life, no friends."〔(W.H. Auden, Review: "Papa Was a Wise Old Sly-Boots" ), Review of Ackerley's ''My Father and Myself,'' ''New York Review of Books,'' 27 March 1969, accessed 4 April 2012〕
Perry and her twin sister ran away from the Coutts home at the age of 18.
