Revelation of Harold Wilson's Secret Affair with Aide Unveiled After Decades

Former aides disclose the late UK Prime Minister Harold Wilson's affair with his deputy press secretary, Janet Hewlett-Davies, shedding light on his personal life during his tenure.

Harold Wilson had a secret affair with Janet Hewlett-Davies, his deputy press secretary, during his final years as Prime Minister.
The affair, revealed posthumously for both Wilson and Hewlett-Davies, was kept secret to avoid political damage.
Joe Haines, Wilson's press secretary, and Bernard Donoughue, a close adviser, disclosed the affair to preserve historical accuracy.
The relationship reportedly boosted Wilson's morale significantly in his last years in office.
Revelations aim to add to the historical record, with both aides waiting until after the deaths of Wilson and Hewlett-Davies to speak out.
