Jamie Campbell-Walter - Family

Family

Jamie is the son of Richard & Annie Campbell-Walter. Richard Campbell-Walter is the brother of famous 50/60's model Fiona Campbell-Walter. Fiona was the beautiful model daughter of Scottish Rear-Admiral Keith Campbell-Walter. Fiona met Baron Heinrich Von Thyssen and he was one of the world's richest and most sought-after playboys. And their love was so strong that, just 12 hours after getting engaged, Fiona Campbell-Walter and Baron Heinrich Von Thyssen wed in a fairytale ceremony in Switzerland. Oban-born Fiona was the first of the supermodels, long before Naomi Campbell and Claudia Schiffer were even born. Royal photographer Cecil Beaton claimed her as his favourite model, and she regularly graced the cover of glossy magazines such as Vogue & Tatler, earning pounds 2000 a day, considered a fortune in the mid-50s. One photographer said of her: "She was so young then the make-up wouldn't stay on her face. Her skin wouldn't support make-up, she was so fresh and beautiful, with that marvellous profile and great allure."

Jamie is also the great Grandson of Sir Edward Taswell Campbell, 1st Baronet.

Famous quotes containing the word family:

    O how terrible it must be for a young man—
    seated before a family and the family thinking
    We never saw him before! He wants our Mary Lou!
    After tea and homemade cookies they ask What do you do for a living
    Gregory Corso (b. 1930)

    If it had not been for storytelling, the black family would not have survived. It was the responsibility of the Uncle Remus types to transfer philosophies, attitudes, values, and advice, by way of storytelling using creatures in the woods as symbols.
    Jackie Torrence (b. 1944)

    O God, and the wedding! All her family and her friends
    and only a handful of mine all scroungy and bearded
    just wait to get at the drinks and food—
    Gregory Corso (b. 1930)
