Lucy, Lady Houston, DBE (8 April 1857 – 29 December 1936), born Fanny Lucy Radmall, was a British philanthropist, political activist, suffragette and eccentric. Beginning in 1933, she published Britain's ''Saturday Review'',〔 which was best known for its attacks on what the paper labelled the "unpatriotic" Labour government of Ramsay MacDonald. ==Early life== Fanny Lucy Radmall was the daughter of Thomas Radmall, a woollen warehouseman and draper, and Maria Isabella Clark. She was born at 13 Lower Kennington Green, Lambeth, the ninth child of ten children. As a young woman, she was a professional dancer, a chorus girl known as "Poppy". At the age of sixteen, she ran off to Paris with a wealthy man twice her age, Frederick Gretton, whose family owned the Bass Brewery. He was married at the time. Despite a tumultuous relationship, Gretton bequeathed Poppy £6,000 per year for life when he died in 1882.〔
