Dame Barbara Windsor's widower Scott Mitchell opens up about sex life
The star of the 'Carry On' films series died in December 2020 aged 83 after a battle with Alzheimer's disease leaving her husband of 27 years devastated, but 59-year-old widower Scott has shared details of their life together in his new book 'By Your Side: My Life Loving Barbara Windsor'.
In an extract from the book, shared in The Sun, he said: "On only our second date Bar had talked to me in detail about her many, many conquests. She said it was always good to brush the cobwebs away."
He added that Barbara didn't want to stop him living his life to the full, but their arrangement "did start to get a bit mixed up".
He went on to say: "She had always said sex was sex and love was love, and she wasn't one for double standards, so she kept her reservations to herself and never asked me directly."
Scott also revealed he would drop Barbara home in a cab before heading back to "enjoy himself" in the West End.
He wrote: "It wasn't to hook up with women, though we both had a similar attitude towards sex, but to score some coke."
Scott previously revealed he was stunned by nasty comments from online trolls following his wife's death and he opened up about the abuse from online critics who accused him of only being with the actress for her money.
He has recalled a time after losing his wife when a report revealed he had changed their joint company into his sole name, revealing a troll wrote: "I see the long game paid off."
Scott told The Sun: "I don’t look at comments but for some reason, one was above the line and someone had said, “I see the long game paid off.
"After 27 years and everything we went through together, it was shocking that someone could actually think like that. But it showed me that whatever you do, there’s always going to be someone critical."
