Discretion is the polite word for hypocrisy. |
I went out every single night so I was never alone with my stepfather. At 12, I stopped going on holiday with them. The times I was alone with him I always made sure I was all covered up. |
I have survived and possibly I should not hope for more than that. |
I took on the sins of everybody, of a generation, really. |
If I don't tell it all now, the story in the history books will always be imperfect and that would be wrong. |
As a little girl I used to daydream about my real father coming on a white horse to rescue me. |
We lived a very quiet life. We'd never go out. We once went to that sex orgy, and I didn't like it, and that was that. And there were maybe one or two cocktail parties. |
My mother used to go out on her own, and I used to have to keep a look out for my stepfather coming home. |
Men, all men, were always trying to get hold of me, you know. |
However I dress it up, I was a spy and I am not proud of it. |
The fathers, if they got me alone, would try to kiss and fondle me. I hated it. |
I'm terrified of men these days. If someone asked me out now, I don't know what I'd say, how I'd react. But I couldn't go through with it, not at all. I suppose I've been terrified of them all along. |
Even a criminal has the right to a new life, but they made sure I did not have that. They just didn't stop calling me a prostitute for ever and ever and ever and ever. |
No one else knows the whole story. I was there. I lived through it. |
I enjoyed sex and indulged in it when I fancied the men. |
Bill Astor knew these papers were missing. Stephen showed his hand in October. |
They came and bound me up and I had awful stretch marks. I hated my breasts after that. |
We knew we were talking about spies. I knew he knew I knew. I was digging my own grave. |
He's 85 and he's met another woman. Still, at 85, why ever not? |
They wanted to hear about the sex, of course. But not the rest; no one wanted to hear the rest. |
