She was born Elizabeth Hester Alington,[1] the second daughter of the Very Rev Cyril Alington[2]—headmaster of Shrewsbury School and Eton College successively, as well as chaplain to King George V[2]—and his wife, Hester Margaret Lyttelton, daughter of George Lyttelton, 4th Baron Lyttelton.

[citation needed] She married Alec Douglas-Home on 3 October 1936.

[1] Thanks to her husband acquiring and renouncing various titles, she had, according to The Guinness Book of Records, more names successively in her lifetime than any other once-married, British-only woman.

[3][page needed] The couple had four children: She died on 3 September 1990 at the age of 80.
