”Who am I?”

Paddy gets the quiz answer. But he won’t share it.

Paddy, who’s in hospital, gets the right answer to today’s quiz question. “My brother in law Paddy who visits me all the time cannot think of the answer," he adds. "And I won't tell him.”
“You do right, Paddy,” Sean says. “Let him work it out himself.”
Today’s question, set by Barney Sloan: I was born into an acting family. In 1963, my parents divorced in 1967 at which time he married a well-known actress before finally settling down with the famous wife of another actor in 1974. Before I married a world famous sports star in 1986 I set a record at the Academy Awards which still stands. We had three children but I lost custody of my children to my divorced husband. Who am I?
With music from George Baker Selection, Johnny Cash and John Carter Cash, Eric Clapton and more.
