Mary Millington (marital name Mary Maxted, born Mary Quilter, 1945 – 1979)
The Steeple Times
Defined as “wanting it and wanting as much as she could get”, tragic English model and pornographic actress Mary Millington “loved money more than anything else”. Born out of wedlock and a friend of Diana Dors, Millington (also later known as Nancy Astley, Susan David, Janet Green, Samantha Jones, June Taylor, Karen Young, Sally Stevens and Marion Ellis) was “one of the hottest British sex film stars of the seventies” until she “absolutely f**ked her life up” by becoming an drug addict and kleptomaniac. Though she ended up blaming the police for her downfall, took a course in embalming and committed suicide aged just 33, this one-time associate of David Sullivan will forever be remembered as an advocate of free speech and a unique British star.
