Celia Whitelaw, Viscountess Whitelaw

Celia, Viscountess Whitelaw (1 January 1917 – 5 December 2011) was the wife of William “Willie” Whitelaw, MP, former Home Secretary, Deputy Prime Minister and aide to Margaret Thatcher.
Born as Cecilia Doriel Sprot (she later changed her name to Celia) at her family home, Riddell Estate near Melrose, to Major Mark Sprot of the Scots Guards and his wife, Meliora (née Hay),〔(Profile at ThePeerage.com )〕 she attended school at the now defunct Oxenfoord Castle boarding school in Midlothian. During World War II, she volunteered to serve with the Women's Auxiliary Territorial Service (ATS) and was posted to Edinburgh Castle as a clerk with the Scottish Command. She was referenced in the book, ''Debs At War 1939-1945: How Wartime Changed Their Lives'', written by Anne De Courcy.
==Marriage==
She was engaged in 1942 and married Whitelaw in St Giles' Cathedral, Edinburgh on 6 February 1943. They had four daughters. After he returned to civilian life following World War II, she played an active role in helping him run his family estates in Dunbartonshire and Lanarkshire. When he decided to go into politics in the 1950s, she became first a vivacious campaigner and later an active parliamentary wife. When her husband was created Viscount Whitelaw in 1983, she became Viscountess Whitelaw, however the lack of a male heir ended the viscountcy with Whitelaw's death. Lady Whitelaw served on the Lakeland Horticultural Society and was vice-president of the Penrith and District Gardeners' and Allotment Holders' Association. After her husband suffered a series of strokes from 1987, she cared for him until his death in 1999.〔(Obituary for Lady Whitelaw in ''The Scotsman'' )〕
