Alice Watts Alice Watts
After leaving her husband and going to live in Malaysia, Raquel Watts found herself pregnant. She returned to Britain and Alice Diana was born on 23 July 1997 in the London teaching hospital where Raquel's sister Bernice worked on a cancer ward. It was here that Raquel was introduced to Eleday deBeaux, a French woman being treated for cancer. Raquel agreed to return to the Loire Valley with Eleday and her husband Armand to act as housekeeper and nanny for their two daughters Madelaine (born in 1996) and the recently born Helene. Eleday died in early 1998, but Raquel stayed on to look after wine grower Armand and his daughters in their chateau. Raquel had gradually settled into her new life, becoming more sophisticated, learning French and eventually falling in love with Armand, even though he was 14 years older than her.
It wasn't until just after the start of 2000 that Curly found he was a father, and not until she was nearly three that Alice met her father for the first time.
