Living a playboy life from his 46ft-long living trailer, he would receive members of the Royal family, such as Princess Margaret. Had a number of well-publicised liaisons with glamorous women, including Jayne Mansfield, Diana Dors, Shirley Bassey and the busty singer Sabrina , to whom he gave a leopard called Chico.

He named one of his elephants after Sabrina - and another after Shirley Bassey.

From the notes on the back of the third photo:

Pet leopard for Sabrina 23 Feb 1958

Actress Sabrina is pictured with her pet leopard called Chico at Billy Smart's Circus winter quarters at Winkfield, Berkshire, this afternoon. Bill, junior, a genial, stockily built 24-year-old, who recently went to Paris with her, gave her the leopard.

Sabrina's New Partner?

The British sex-bomb Sabrina has discovered a new sphere. It appears now - for three nights only - in the Billy Smart circus. Our picture shows her with a "colleague", also an attraction of the circus. 5 April 1963.

Sonny King

1922 - 2006

This is a really strange one: Sabrina claimed they were engaged. He denied it. Most odd! Read the entire peculiar tale from 1962.

Before he was a local lounge institution and Jimmy Durante's sidekick, it was King who introduced Dean Martin to Jerry Lewis in the 1940s. In the 1960s, he ran with The Rat Pack. He died of cancer in February 2006, aged 83

The brunette is June Wilkinson, and Richard tells me the man is Tommy Yeardye (18 July 1930 - 21 April 2004) of whom Sabrina supposedly said "Tommy can have the key to my safe any time he wants."

I have no evidence that they were romantically attached. Tommy was famously entangled with Diana Dors (as was Billy Smart Jr). For more details, visit the " Sabrina With... " page.

We do, however, know that Sabby and June were natural enemies!

19 September 1958 - The Montreal Gazette reported:

British muscleman Tommy Yeardye's defection from Diana Dors to Sabrina recalls the coincidenca that Dennis Hamilton, Diana's ex-husband, also segued to Sabrina, and Dickie Dawson, Diana's present beau, was once Sabrina's property. Obviously those three gentlemen don't just prefer blondes, they prefer the SAME blondes.

"Debonair playboy."

From Daily Express - 31 January 1961:

DEBONAIR playboy Michael Colclough-Hoey was notorious for chasing the West End's glamour girls. Diana Dors. Shani Wallis, Sabrina , he escorted them all.
Last night another Hoey chase was on.
But this time Hoey was the quarry, with police as the hunters. For Hoey was the man who passed an 8mm Lebel to "Scotch Jackie" on the neon-lighted pavement outside the Pitalle Restaurant last September.
And with that gun "Scotch Jackie" — 27-year-old West End thug John James Buggy — shot down 33-year-old Mr. Charles Robert Reeder, of Berkshire-Road, Homerton...

[Hoey] disappeared last October three days before the end of his Old Bailey trial for a £24,000 bubble-gum machine swindle.
He was convicted in his absence on 20 charges of fraud.
