Evelyn Victoria Ann Chandler Tate (16 May 1887 – 25 January 1979),[1][2] known by her stage name Eva Carrington, was an actress, model and sometime peeress as the wife of the Baron de Clifford.[3]

Modelling career

Carrington was born Evelyn Chandler in London, the daughter of Walter Robert Chandler, an Anglo-Irish orderly room clerk to Colonel Fred Burnaby. She was a model for the artist James Whistler between 1898 and 1902. She posed for a number of Whistler's paintings and drawings, including "A dancing woman in a pink robe, seen from the back",[4] "The Tambourine"[5] "Eva and Gladys Carrington seated on a sofa",[6] and "The Bead Stringers".[7][8][9]

Stage career

She became a renowned actress during the Edwardian period. A famous role was as one of the Gibson Girls in the British theatre performance of "The Catch of the Season"[10]

Marriages

Eva married Jack Southwell Russell, 25th Baron de Clifford, in February 1906. She adopted the title Lady de Clifford. This marriage, of a commoner and showgirl to a senior peer, created a scandal at the time.[10]

Following her first husband's death, she married Captain Arthur Stock of Glenapp Castle, Ayrshire, in 1913, who also died. In 1922, Eva married George Vernon Tate, grandson of the founder of the Tate Gallery.[11]

She had several children, and the eldest, Edward Southwell Russell, succeeded to the de Clifford barony.[3]
