HITLER’S lovechild could be alive and well and living in GB

HITLER’S lovechild could be alive and well and living in Britain.

That is the incredible possibility raised about Unity Mitford – an English aristocrat who was infatuated with the Fuhrer.
Torn between love for her homeland and dedication to Hitler, Unity – who was 25 and living in Munich at the time – shot herself in the head when Britain declared war on Germany in 1939.

Her link with Hitler was thought to have ended there.
But now journalist Martin Bright has revealed a theory that, in the months following her return, she was cared for at a maternity home in the Cotswolds . . . where she gave birth to a son.
The suggestion, due to be aired next week in Channel 4’s Hitler’s British Girl, has triggered speculation that the evil dictator, responsible for millions of deaths, could have fathered an English boy.
Unity Valkyrie Mitford was conceived in a town named – bizarrely – Swastika in Ontario, Canada, where her family owned a gold mine. She was born in London in 1914.

Racist
She was one of six famous Mitford sisters who also included writer Nancy, committed communist Jessica and Diana, wife of British fascist leader Sir Oswald Mosley.
Expelled from three boarding schools, Unity was sent to Germany in 1933 where she was dazzled by the Nuremberg rallies – the torchlit parades, fanatical displays of loyalty and the rantings of Hitler.
Already filled with anti-Semitic, racist views, she was determined to meet Hitler and dined at his favourite Munich restaurant night after night on the off-chance of seeing him.

Sinister connection ... Hitler called Unity Mitford 'a perfect specimen of Aryan womanhood'
When he did appear, she tried everything to attract him, giving him flirty glances and dropping a book on the floor as he passed. Eventually she was invited to join his table and within months she was part of Hitler’s inner circle.
She was seen with him so often that the Daily Telegraph mistakenly reported they were to be married.
Hitler told friends he considered her “a perfect specimen of Aryan womanhood”.
The British secret service reported that she was dangerously close to the dictator and described her as “more Nazi than the Nazis”.

Mystery ... Unity Mitford
She was invited to speak at rallies, which she did wearing a black shirt, swastika armband and a gold Nazi party badge signed by the Fuhrer.
Hitler also gave her a luxurious Munich apartment, snatched from deported Jews.
But when Britain declared war on Germany in September 1939, Unity went to the English Garden in Munich – where she used to sunbathe naked – and shot herself in the head.
She suffered brain damage and, after treatment in Germany which failed to remove the bullet, she was returned to Britain in a private carriage paid for by Hitler.
She is then said to have lived as an invalid with her mother in the Cotswolds, moved to a Scottish island in 1944 and died as a result of her brain injury aged 33 in 1948.
But Martin Bright, writing in New Statesman magazine, has told of a phone call from a woman called Val Hann, suggesting more of a story.
“Her aunt, Betty Norton, had run a maternity home in Oxfordshire during the war and said that Unity Mitford had been one of her clients,” wrote Bright.

“Her aunt’s business, in the tiny village of Wigginton, had depended on discretion and she had told no one except her sister that Unity had a baby. Her sister had passed the story on to her daughter, Val.”
Mr Bright says that when he asked who the father of the child was, Ms Hann paused before replying, “Well, she always said it was Hitler’s.”
Intrigued, Mr Bright visited Wigginton. He met a woman called Audrey Smith who said that as a child she saw Unity Mitford wrapped in a blanket and looking very ill.
Ms Smith’s older sister – now dead – had worked at the home and talked about Unity, she said, but insisted Unity had not been there to have a baby. Mr Bright says his research showed the secret service had doubts about the extent of Unity’s injuries.
By October 1941, police had picked up rumours that Unity had “formed an attachment” with a married RAF test pilot, John Sidney Andrews, who was transferred to Scotland and died in an accident in 1945.

Swelling
In 1944 Unity had moved with her mother to the family-owned island of Inch Kenneth, close to Mull, Scotland. In 1948 she developed meningitis from swelling around her bullet wound and died days later.
Unity’s only surviving sister, the Dowager Duchess of Devonshire, who travelled back from Germany with her, has dismissed the idea of a lovechild.
Author Lorn Macintyre grew up on Mull and has written a book about Unity Mitford – The Broken Lyre.
He said: “It’s absurd. I talked with people who had known Unity on Inch Kenneth.
“She was so disabled she could no longer count and had to wear nappies because of her incontinence. It is inconceivable she was pregnant.”
Martin Bright, who researched the documentary is also sceptical but said: “One nagging thought remains: If Unity was in Wigginton during the war, what was she doing at a maternity home?”

Hitler’s British Girl is on Channel 4 on Thursday, December 20, at 9pm.

Om mee te beginnen

nee serieus, dan moet er natuurlijk sowieso wel DNA-materiaal van der Führer zijn: Is er niet iets van die knakker overgebleven?
