Susan Renouf

Who is Susan Renouf?

Susan, Lady Renouf is an Australian socialite.

Born Susan Rossiter to Sir John Rossiter and Joan Stewart, she was married three times:

to Andrew Peacock, prominent Australian politician

to Robert Sangster, British gambling tycoon

to Sir Frank Renouf, New Zealand financier

In 1968, she was the focus of a minor political scandal in Australia when she appeared in a TV advertising campaign for an electric blanket with the ads slogan saying "sleep wonderfully warm with Linda" while her husband, Andrew Peacock, was a Minister in the Australian Federal Government.

In 1988, her third husband, Sir Frank Renouf, outlaid what was at the time the highest-ever price for a Sydney home, when he bought the mansion "Paradis sur Mer" in Wolseley Crescent at Point Piper, where the vendor was her second husband, Robert Sangster. The house was eventually razed.

In 2013 it was reported that Lady Renouf had been diagnosed with cancer.
