Aitken’s former It girl Alexandra keeps the faith

EVEN though former It girl Alexandra Aitken bid farewell to the Punjab, where she lived with her then husband Inderjot Singh, she remains true to the Sikh faith.

The twin daughter of former Cabinet minister Jonathan Aitken now lives in a cottage in Canterbury, where she attended £38,955a-year King’s School before exploding onto the London party scene. She went on to pose naked for GQ and appeared in a film with Daniel Craig, Enduring Love.

‘When she’s out and about she stops regularly to say prayers or read the scriptures,’ a local tells me. Though now known as Uttrang Kaur Khalsa, Aitkenhasremarked that she didn’t expect friends to stop calling her ‘Ally’, but added: ‘ I’m just much happier like this.’
