From Britain's answer to 1950s blonde bombshell Marilyn Monroe to the Siren of Swindon, the late Diana Dors had many nicknames throughout the course of her career as an actress.

During her time in the spotlight, the star, who died on 4 May 1984, was married three times and welcomed three children with two of her former spouses.
She first tied the knot with Dennis Hamilton in 1951 and was married to her manager until his death in 1959. The couple didn't share any children together.
Diana went on to find love with her second husband, actor Richard Dawson, whom she was married to for seven years from 1959 to 1966, when their divorce was finalised. They welcomed Diana's two sons, Mark and Gary Dawson.
Finally, the actress walked down the aisle to her third husband, The Avengers star Alan Lake, in 1968 and stayed with him until she died in the 80s. Diana gave birth to her third child, another son, whom they called Jason Dors Lake, during their marriage.
