Now it’s Baroness ‘filthy’!

FORMER Bletchley Park codebreaker Baroness Trumpington was famous for her no-nonsense approach to life – but now her son Adam Barker is about to reveal his late mother was also deeply romantic... and very risque!

He’s publishing the love letters between his father William Barker, who died in 1988, and his mother who passed away 20 years later, aged 96. ‘There are hundreds of them,’ Adam told me at the Boisdale Editors Lunch. ‘Some of them are rather filthy!’ Perhaps we should have guessed – after all, the baroness, pictured left, became an internet sensation when she waved two fingers at a fellow peer after he referred to her age in the House of Lords.
