Princess Margaret 'had affair' with 1950s crooner Eddie Fisher: Singer's actress daughter Carrie reveals secret romance

Carrie Fisher reveals her father Eddie and Princess Margaret had passionate affair

The revelation comes from the US crooner's daughter and eldest of his four children - Star Wars actress Carrie Fisher - who said her father had a 'beautiful' romance with Princess Margaret.She didn't reveal when the liaison took place but it has been suggested it may have occurred in 1952, when Fisher was 24 - and enjoying his first UK number one with Outside of Heaven - and the princess was 22, eight years before she married the Earl of Snowdon. Fisher - whose five wives included Elizabeth Taylor and Debbie Reynolds - was said to be Margaret's favourite singer and the pair were pictured together in the 50s. Appearing on The Jonathan Ross Show on ITV, to be broadcast tomorrow, Miss Fisher, 59, said: 'I met Princess Margaret once. I did. I really did. Well, they did the Empire Strikes Back and they did it over here. So we all went [to the premiere] with Alec Guinness, Harrison [Ford] and with Mark [Hamill] and as she was coming down the line I mentioned to my co-stars that my father had had sex with Princess Margaret. In a beautiful way they made love. Anyway I did mention this. I am going to get in a lot of trouble for this.' She added: 'After the movie we went over to the Savoy where the party was and Harrison had arrived at the party prior to my arrival and also before Princess Margaret had arrived as well. He came up to me and said "Well clearly your father will sleep with anybody." He was joking. It was funny.'

Were Brussels jihadis trying to make a RADIOACTIVE BOMB? Expert says ISIS may have been plotting to steal nuclear material - as 11 power plant workers have their access revoked amid fears of 'insider help'

The Brussels terrorists may have been plotting to make a radioactive bomb after it emerged 11 nuclear power plant workers have had their site access revoked amid fears of 'insider help'.

Why IS William still fascinated with his old flame Jecca? Questions over Prince's last-minute decision to attend the Kenyan wedding of his 'first love' 

Why IS Prince William still fascinated with his old flame Jecca Craig?

Before Kate Middleton came into the William's life, Jecca Craig, pictured left and right, was frequently described as his 'first love', and now the prince is set to attend her wedding in Africa without his wife and children.
