Fiona Loudon first grabbed the attention of the media in 1991, when her high profile relationship with popular actor Daniel Craig was revealed to the public. Despite always being in the eye of the paparazzi, they carefully avoided divulging details about their affair, just as she kept her family, education and upbringing under covers. Nevertheless, she remained a hot topic for tabloids throughout the next few years as the couple got married, welcomed a daughter, and eventually got divorced within two and a half years of their marriage. While Craig went on to earn more fame as the iconic secret agent James Bond, she stayed away from the limelight for the rest of her life. However, due to the fact that her ex-husband Craig has been romantically involved with several women in the past and later married actress Rachel Weisz, curiosity about his first marriage with Loudon remained afloat in the media for decades. Recently, she again surfaced on the news as her daughter with Craig, Ella, entered the entertainment industry as an actress.
