She was educated at Roman Catholic schools in England and Belgium. In London, she worked as journalist to Newspaper The Times, as public relations director, and from 1950 to 1972 to the advertising agency Young and Rubicam. She married a dentist, with whom she had a son, James, and an adopted daughter, Marigold, but the marriage faltered. On 1947, she met John Goodwin, a former lieutenant in the RNVR and later theatre director, and they had a son, Tim. They finally married in 1971, after she widowed. She died on 28 February 2008.
