Audrey Kathleen Ruston, aka Audrey Hepburn very nearly starved to death as a child during WW2.

After Field Marshall Bernard Montgomery's disastrous Operation Market-Garden in September, 1944 the Germans were convinced the Dutch underground had a hand in supplying intell to the Allies the Nazi's blockaded food shipments to Holland in what the Dutch called Der Honger Winter'' "The Hunger Winter leaving poor Audrey to nearly arrive at deaths door. It's the reason she had such a thin and frail body. F;ing Montgomery. What an egotistical Brit a$$hole.
