Biography

Audrey Evelyn James was born on 21 April 1902, officially the daughter of William Dodge James and Evelyn Elizabeth Forbes.[1] Her siblings are Helen Millicent Howard; Alexandra Maud Venetia Fawcus; Silvia Helena Sophia Wilson; and Edward James.[2]

Edward James, in his memoirs, writes that he is not, as believed, the son of Edward VII, but he was indeed his grandson, being their grandmother who had an affair with the Prince of Wales. But William Dodge James did not care, like he did not when he received an anonymous letter telling him that Audrey James was not his daughter as well. Audrey's biological father was Sir Edward Grey, 1st Viscount Grey of Fallodon, a British Liberal statesman and Foreign Minister.[3]

On 25 March 1922 Audrey James married Muir Dudley Coats, son of Sir Stuart Auchincloss Coats, 2nd Bt. and Jane Muir Greenlees. They had one son, Peter Coats, in 1923, who died at 4 days old.[1]

On 18 August 1930 she married Marshall Field III and in 1933 she was included in The Book of Beauty by Cecil Beaton.[4] She and her husband were divorced in Reno, Nevada in 1934.[1]

On 25 November 1938 she married Hon. Peter Pleydell-Bouverie, son of Jacob Pleydell-Bouverie, 6th Earl of Radnor and Julian Eleanor Adelaide Balfour. They divorced in 1946.[1]

She died on 14 February 1968.[1]
