Leslie Phillips' family sue Carry On star's ex-air hostess widow in High Court as she refuses to leave his £4.4m mansion

Leslie Phillips, a well-known British actor famous for his roles in the 'Carry On' film series and the Harry Potter franchise, passed away in November 2022 at the age of 98. His will, made public in August 2024, specified that his £4.4 million London home must be sold by August 2025, with the proceeds divided among his four children from his first marriage and his third wife, Zara Carr. Carr, who married Phillips in 2013 when he was 89 and she was in her mid-50s, has refused to leave the property, claiming Phillips had promised her she could live there for the rest of her life. Phillips’s children have now taken legal action against Carr in the High Court, seeking to enforce the terms of the will. Carr expressed surprise at the legal proceedings and stated she intends to fight the case, asserting that the home is now her residence.
