Tara Palmer-Tomkinson(1971-2017)
- Actress
Tara Palmer-Tomkinson, or TP-T as she had become widely recognised by
the nation, first rose to fame in the 1990s when she was a budding
writer and fashion enthusiast eager to share her views with the world
by entering into a newly-found London lifestyle--a big change from her
quintessentially English upbringing in the Hampshire countryside. Her
writing career quickly progressed through a flurry of hard work mixed
with an array of insights into her exceptional socialite lifestyle. The
public were ensconced in the interest of this young writer and her
ever-growing following quickly catapulted her into the limelight where
she was even given the honour of a waxwork likeness at Madame Tussauds.
Having written for some of the nation's most prestigious publications such as Tatler, The Sunday Times, and The Mail on Sunday, TP-T had built up her reputation as an immeasurable influence in the worlds of fashion, lifestyle, and literature. Her success could also be credited to her entertaining yet endearing television persona which had consistently won the hearts of the British public on programmes such as 'I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!' and 'Celebrity Fame Academy,' where she finished in first place. Encouraged by her success on this show, Tara, already a classically-trained musician, had continued to build upon her passion for music, and had produced a series of tracks to be released in the immediate future.
More recently, Tara's iconic status in the lifestyle and media fields had afforded her the opportunity to publish a best-selling self-help guide, 'The Naughty Girl's Guide to Life'; and two glamour-infused novels, 'Inheritance' and 'Infidelity'. The success behind these novels is fundamentally linked to the popularity that Tara had established for herself over the years and the fact that she depicted a unique insight that only TP-T herself can tell.
With upcoming television, literary, and musical projects in production, Tara's attention continued to be divided between creative and media engagements, but with her vivacious personality she was always looking to broaden her horizons. She had a strong affinity for charitable causes and an ever-increasing involvement in charity work and fundraising events.
