James Michael Goldsmith Wiki: Salary, Married, Wedding, Spouse, Family

Sir James Michael "Jimmy" Goldsmith (26 February 1933 – 18 July 1997) was an Anglo-French billionaire financier and tycoon. Towards the end of his life, he became a magazine publisher and a politician. In 1994, he was elected to represent France as a Member of the European Parliament and he subsequently founded the short-lived eurosceptic Referendum Party in the United Kingdom. He was known for his many romantic relationships and for the various children he fathered with his wives and many girlfriends. Goldsmith was the inspiration for the character of the corporate raider Sir Larry Wildman in Oliver Stone's Wall Street. On his death, Tony Blair stated: "He was an extraordinary character and though I didn't always agree with his political views, obviously, he was an amazing and interesting, fascinating man." Margaret Thatcher stated: "Jimmy Goldsmith was one of the most powerful and dynamic personalities that this generation has seen. He was enormously generous, and fiercely loyal to the causes he espoused."

#	Quote
1	[on the staff of "Private Eye", during his lawsuit against its editor}: They have attacked my son. I will throw them into prison. I will hound their wives, even in their widows' weeds.

#	Fact
1	Uncle of Clio Goldsmith.
2	He has been depicted unflatteringly in two TV movies (both of which listed him as "Jimmy Goldsmith" in the cast-list). In The Lavender List (2006), he was played by Patrick Ryecart, and in Lucan (2013), he was played by Alistair Petrie.
3	Although he was a Member of the European Parliament (for a French constituency), he was strongly opposed to the European Union. To further his anti-EU ideas, he formed the extreme right-wing Referendum Party in Britain and stood for election in the 1997 General Election. He garnered only a little over 1500 votes, and died a few weeks later. The Referendum Party largely collapsed thereafter.
4	Terence Stamp and Oliver Stone have both claimed that the character Stamp plays in Stone's film Wall Street (1987) was largely based on Goldsmith. It has also been suggested that the Richard De Vere character played by Peter Bowles in the long-running BBC sitcom To the Manor Born (1979) was suggested by Goldsmith.
5	Ex-stepfather of Robin Birley.
6	Fathered Zac Goldsmith and Jemima Khan while their mother (the sister of Lady Jane Raynes) was married to her first husband, and he was married to his second wife; they married in 1978. Goldsmith had fathered a son by his second wife before marrying her, then fathered two children by a mistress while married to his third wife.
