Caroline Stanhope, Countess of Harrington (née Lady Caroline FitzRoy; 8 April 1722 – 26 June 1784) was a British socialite and demimondaine. After being blackballed by the English social group The Female Coterie, she founded The New Female Coterie, a social club of courtesans and "fallen women" that met in a brothel. Known for her infidelity and bisexuality, she was nicknamed the "Stable Yard Messalina" due to her adulterous lifestyle. Her "colourful" life is often contrasted with that of her daughter-in-law, Jane Stanhope, Countess of Harrington, who was viewed as a respectable member of British high society.

  • Caroline Stanhope, Countess of Harrington, född 1722, död 1784, var en brittisk grevinna som var känd för sitt kärleksliv, kallad "Stable Yard Messalina". Hon gifte sig 1746 med William Stanhope, 2nd Earl of Harrington, med vilken hon fick sju barn. Makarna blev båda välkända för sina utomäktenskapliga förhållanden på var sitt håll, men fortsatte vara gifta för att undvika den skandal en skilsmässa skulle orsaka.
