- Valerie Hobson (14 April 1917 – 13 November 1998) was a British actress, who appeared in a number of British films during the 1940s and 1950s. She was born Babette Valerie Louise Hobson in Larne, County Antrim, Ireland. She appeared as Baroness Frankenstein in Bride of Frankenstein (1935) with Boris Karloff and Colin Clive, taking over the role from Mae Clarke, who had played it in the original Frankenstein (1931). Hobson also played opposite Henry Hull that same year in Werewolf of London, the first Hollywood werewolf movie, predating The Wolf Man by six years. The latter half of the 1940s saw Hobson in perhaps her two most memorable roles: as the adult Estella in David Lean's 1946 adaptation of Great Expectations, and as the refined and virtuous Edith D'Ascoyne in the 1949 black comedy Kind Hearts and Coronets. In 1952 she divorced her first husband, film producer Sir Anthony Havelock-Allan (1904-2003), and married MP John Profumo (1915-2006) in 1954, giving up acting shortly afterwards. After Profumo's ministerial career ended in disgrace in 1963, following revelations he had lied to the House of Commons about his affair with Christine Keeler, she stood by him, and they worked together for charity for the remainder of her life. Valerie's eldest son, Simon Anthony Clerveaux Havelock-Allan was born in May, 1944 with Down's Syndrome. Her middle child, Mark Havelock-Allan, was born April 4, 1951. Her youngest child is author David Profumo, b. October 16, 1955, who wrote a book, "Bringing the House Down," about his father's scandal. She died of a heart attack in London in 1998 and is buried in Surrey, England.

- Valerie Hobson, född 14 april 1917 i Larne, Nordirland, död 13 november 1998 i London, England; brittisk skådespelerska. Dotter till en brittisk arméofficer. Hon gjorde scendebut som sextonåring och strax efter även filmdebut. Hon inbjöds till Hollywood 1935, men återvände besviken ett år senare, efter att ha medverkat i några skräckfilmer. Hon kom sedan att utvecklas till en av de främsta aktriserna i brittisk film, behagfull och elegant, en "riktig engelsk dam". Bland hennes mest kända filmer märks i rollen som Estella i Lysande utsikter (1946) och komedin Sju hertigar (1949) mot Alec Guiness. 1939 gifte hon sig med filmproducenten Anthony Havelocke-Allan. Paret skilde sig 1952 och 1954 gifte Hobson om sig med politikern John Profumo. Hon stod troget vid sin makes sida under den skandal som skakade England 1963, den s.k. Profumoaffären, då Profumo tvangs avgå. Paret förblev gifta fram till hennes död, 1998.
