Anna Abigail Gyarmarthy was born on 27 September 1943 in Budapest, Hungary.[citation needed] Her father, László Izsak Gyarmathy,[1][better source needed] was a mathematician and her mother was a poet. She moved to France as a child and began acting when she was fifteen.[2]
Anna Gyarmarthy acted under the stage name 'Anna Gaël'.[3] She starred in Hungarian, German, Italian, American and French films including Via Macau in 1966, Therese and Isabelle in 1968,[4] Zeta One, aka The Love Factor in 1969, The Bridge at Remagen in 1969 and Take Me, Love Me in 1970.[5][6][7][8][2] She retired from acting in 1981. She worked as a news reporter, covering conflicts in Vietnam, and South Africa as well as the Northern Ireland conflict.[citation needed]
She met Alexander Thynn, Viscount Weymouth, the son of Henry Thynne, 6th Marquess of Bath, and Daphne Fielding, in Paris in 1959. She later became the Viscount's mistress while she was married to French film director Gilbert Pineau;[2] in 1969, she and the Viscount married.[9] Later that year she gave birth to their first child, Lady Lenka Thynn. In 1974, she gave birth to their second child, Ceawlin Thynn.[2] In 1992, her husband succeeded his father as the 7th Marquess of Bath; he died in April 2020.
In 2013 her son married Emma McQuiston, the daughter of Nigerian businessman Oladipo Jadesimi. She reportedly disapproved of her son's marriage due to her daughter-in-law's African ancestry and thus did not attend the wedding.[10]
Lady Bath died in Paris on 17 September 2022, at the age of 78, ten days before her 79th birthday.[11]
