Math: "Richard lives with John Burns, her partner of 44 years and 20 years her junior." If that is the case, and since she is 65 today, then they've met when he was 1. Interesting. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.87.170.71 (talk) 12:48, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It would also mean she was married 3 times before she was 21, I think it means he is 44 years old, I agree it is very badly worded and will also become out of date if it isn't already. I don't know anything about her partner so I don't want to change it as it may not be correct. BigTurnip (talk) 18:59, 19 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Years ago, she had breast cancer, from which she recovered - or at least it seemed she recovered. The media reports state that she now has cancer in both a kidney and bones. Is it kidney cancer metastasised to bones, or breast cancer again, metastasised to both kidney and bones, or does it originate in another organ? It is an important distinction; it makes a significant difference to prognosis; Wikipedia has categories for deaths from and survival from cancers by location of the parent organ. It is also unclear whether or not she is terminal. Media reports state she is "dying", but there are quotes from her to the effect that she hopes to survive/recover; that the chemotherapy which she is soon to undergo should destroy the cancer. Is there actually a possibility that she will ever become cancer-free, or is she in denial, and just kidding herself that she has a chance of surviving?

In her interview with OK! magazine, she stated that the media reports that she is terminal are untrue, and that her doctors have never told her that she is terminal. Werdnawerdna (talk) 07:36, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Can someone please find a suitable free photo for the profile. Due her death it is an important tribute to have a complete full profile of the actress. Thanks
Kudos to finding a free photo suitable for use in the article! And it's a great photo, too! So sad she passed away, but just think of the wonderful work she's left behind for us to enjoy! --Ericdn (talk) 01:30, 1 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The personal life section states she was a supporter of Margaret Thatcher; was Richard a member of the Conservative Party? If so, during which years? Nietzsche 2 (talk) 15:02, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
