“My elder son, Sholto, was conceived in one of Frank Sinatra’s homes in the U.S. and, because of the connection, it seemed appropriate to ask Ol’ Blue Eyes to be his godfather.
Frank graciously agreed. ‘Sure,’ he said, and from then on The Godfather was an attentive and kind godfather to my son. Once, on a trip to London, he invited us both to Claridge’s for tea and presented Sholto with a transistor radio for his seventh birthday. It was typical of his kindness.
It seems glib to say that a man of Sinatra’s enormous wealth was generous, but it was such acts of unassuming thoughtfulness that singled him out.
We first met in 1961 when I flew out to California with my first husband, the jazz pianist Robin Douglas-Home, at Frank’s invitation. Sinatra had agreed to give Robin unprecedented access for a book he was writing about his music. We were to be Frank’s guests for three extraordinary weeks.”
