Brought up in Shettleston, Glasgow, at age 18, Godley, a Protestant, married Sean Storrie, also 18, whose nickname was "Mad Eyes", from a large Catholic family with ties to Glasgow's gangster underground. One of her new brothers-in-law spat on her at the reception. One of seven sons, Sean was raised with his brothers by George Storrie, an East Glasgow gangster. When "Old George" died, the Kray brothers sent a wreath. As of 2005, the couple was still together after 25 years of marriage. They have one child, a daughter, Ashley.〔(Profile ), janeygodley.com; accessed 4 October 2015.〕〔(Profile ), theguardian.com, 12 June 2005; accessed 4 October 2015.〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Joking apart )〕 Her 2005 autobiography ''Handstands in the Dark'' describes working-class Glasgow from 1961–94.
