Hayley Mills

Hayley Mills (b. 18 April 1946, Marylebone, London) is a prolific English actress, daughter of actors [url=https://discogs.com/artist/1390467]John Mills[/url] and Mary Hayley Bell (1911—2005), and younger sister of Juliet Mills. She began acting early, winning several notable accolades before fifteen, such as the "Most Promising Newcomer" BAFTA Award for Tiger Bay (1959) crime drama, the Academy Juvenile Award for Eleanor H. Porter's Pollyanna adaptation in 1960, and the "New Star of the Year" Golden Globe Award in 1961. During Hayley's six-year tenure at Walt Disney, she was one of the most popular child actresses in the United States, despite her British origins. In 1961, Mills released her film song, Let's Get Together, reaching No. 8 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The following year, her debut full-length album, Let's Get Together With Hayley Mills, came out on Disney's Walt Disney.

In 1966, Hayley Mills co-starred with her father, John, in The Boulting Brothers' northern comedy, The Family Way, directed by Roy Boulting and produced by [url=https://discogs.com/artist/13665145]John[/url]. She began dating Roy, thirty-three years older, right on the movie set (which caused a mild controversy in the British press). They got married in 1971, and Mills became Roy's fourth wife. They had one son together, singer-songwriter and musician Crispian Mills, before divorcing in 1977. Hayley never re-married but had several partners since then, including Marcus Maclaine, né Newby, brother of Maxwell Caulfield, her sister Juliet's husband. Since 1997, she has been dating an Indian-born actor Firdous Bamji (b. 1966), who is ironically twenty years younger.
