Who is the most famous person you have met?

[WomenHour]

I would have to be George Sampson.

Oh and I once borrowed a lighter from Kaz off of love island

Ant and Dec- lovely lovely lovely people!

Daphne from Frasier (not sure of her real name!)

My son played with Prince George and Princess Charlotte once at a zoo if that counts?! Although I wasn't with him!

Oh and does Joanna Konta count? I interviewed her once... and Aled Jones... and Penelope Cruz.

Ok I realise I have an advantage

Jess that's a lovely story about Anthony Head, I've never had strong feelings about him but I really like him now 😍

Me too

I met Russell Howard on my hen do.

Also attached a picture of when we met Catherine Zeta Jones and Michael Douglas. It was in 2006 when they opened up the children’s hospital in Cardiff. This picture was posted in magazines of my dad and my sister who had pneumonia at the time.

She’s fine and moved away to uni today!

Suggs. My hero. I was embarrassed to ask for a photo but I decided it was now or never ❤️

Girls aloud (minus nadine) in Glasgow airport years ago-they were lovely and signed my paper for me. I stupidly gave it to my ex bf

On a walk with my 3 daughters in Sandringham. Moved aside to let a family of cyclists past. The gentleman stopped alongside me and said good morning, whereupon I realised it was Prince William!!
Kate rose up next, stopped, looked at my girls and said ‘wow!’ (in Sympathy I’m sure).
Was a very strange experience!

Billy Connolly, Adam Ant, Rowan Atkinson - had to decline his credit card! John Cleese, Olivia Newton John, Ronnie Corbett, Thin Lizzy several times, Rory Bremmer, John Major, when he was PM. Stayed in the same hotel as Dexy's Midnight Runners for a few months got quite friendly!

Holly Willoughby, Peter Jones, Melanie Sykes, Billie piper...Peter Jones was wonderful

Kate Bush, before she was famous - I went to the same school as her.

Glenda Jackson - whilst looking at knickers in M&S; she said something to me, but I was so star-struck I couldn’t respond.

Anthony Andrews, when I worked in a department store in London (his wife was the heiress of the store).

Patsy Palmer - she sat behind us on a flight to Paris and didn’t stop talking for the whole flight, she spoke to my toddler son.

Keith Floyd - went to his pub in Devon, which was very busy and he showed us into a smaller, quieter room.

I got my last tattoo done by Kevin Paul. He’s also the tattoo artist of Ed Sheeran, Harry styles, James Arthur, Dappy, Rihanna etc. Really sound interesting guy.
I’ve met a lot of famous musicians at gigs and festivals too

@CardsforKittens

Sean Connery.

Yep me too, met Sean Connery, many years ago

Hulk Hogan & Roland Rat (for those of a certain age)
Danny Dyer
Hugh Grant (not long after 4 Weddings)

Can't decide who's more famous out of Hillary Clinton or Macaulay Culkin, but I've met both of them. At separate times, not together.

Nelson Mandela
Pete Townsend
Gordon Brown
John Malkovich
Rick Stein

I went to the loo after a certain famous person and she had clearly just done a line on the top of the cistern ‘‘Twas charming.

Bill and Hillary Clinton. Amazing experience.

I met Julian Fellowes through work (for a charity) and he was charming. His lovely wife took some of my homemade shortbread home in her handbag for him for later and sent me a card saying how much he enjoyed it.

Blur, more specifically Damon Albarn, when they were huge. They were staying at a hotel I was working at.

Justin Fletcher...aka Mr Tumble is my favourite that I've met.

The one I treasure the most was a private, tho unscheduled, audience with His Holiness the Dalai Lama.He gave me a Blessing!

Glen Campbell

Gordon Ramsey, Antonio Carluccio, Jean Christophe Novelli, Keith Floyd, Gary Rhodes, Billy Connelly, Lawrence Llewelyn Bowen then some really questionable ones-Jim Saville just before he died and sat on the plane with Rolf Harris. The loveliest of all was LLB, utterly charming and funny.
