Biography

Polly Williams, a renowned actress and model, was born on January 5th, 1950, in the picturesque county of Sussex, England. She was the third child of the accomplished actor and dramatist Hugh Williams, who was married twice, first to Margaret Vyner, an Australian-born actress and dramatist, and later to another partner. Polly's maternal grandmother was a renowned actress, further solidifying her connection to the world of theatre.

Polly's early life was marked by a strong emphasis on education, as she attended Cobham Hall in Kent, a prestigious institution that provided her with a solid foundation in the arts. Her subsequent enrollment in a finishing school in Madrid, Spain, allowed her to develop her language skills and cultural awareness, which would serve her well in her future endeavors.

As an adult, Polly embarked on a successful career as an actress and model, making a name for herself in the entertainment industry. Her brothers, Hugo Williams and Simon Williams, also followed in their father's footsteps, with Hugo becoming a celebrated poet and Simon a talented actor.

Tragically, Polly's life was cut short when she passed away on June 24th, 2004, at the age of 54, following a long and arduous battle with cancer. She is survived by her widower, the esteemed actor Nigel Havers, as well as two sons from her first marriage and a stepdaughter from her second. Despite her untimely passing, Polly's legacy lives on through her remarkable achievements and the lasting impact she had on those who knew her.
