Valerie Hobson (April 17, 1917 - November 13, 1998) was a British actress, who appeared in a number of British films during the 1940s and 1950s. She was born in Northern Ireland. Her best-known performance was as the "good" girl in the comedy, Kind Hearts and Coronets. In 1952 she divorced her first husband - the film producer Sir Anthony Havelock-Allan (1904-2002) - and married the MP John Profumo, giving up acting shortly afterwards. After Profumo's ministerial career ended in disgrace in 1963, following revelations he had lied to the House of Commons about his affair with Christine Keeler, she stood by him, and they worked together for charity for the remainder of her life.
