In his roles as a villain and a womaniser, Michael Caine has broken many women’s hearts. Here’s our choice of his playmates – beautiful women who have fallen for the anti-hero’s characters.
Ekland’s performance in ‘Get Carter’ went down in film history. Playing Anna, Caine’s beautiful Swedish lover, she takes part in one of the hottest sex scenes in movie history – over the phone.
Eva Renzi - Love in West-Berlin
Eva Renzi, aka Samantha Steel, seduces the British Secret Service agent Harry Palmer in the film ‘Funeral in Berlin’. Born in Berlin, Enzi was a rising German star in the 1970s. Tragically, she died from lung cancer aged only 60.
Jane Asher - Tragic Love
A red mane of hair and intensely blue eyes: Jane Asher’s romantic looks offer another ‘trophy’ for heartbreaker Alfie’s collection of broken hearts. But their break-up is something Alfie (played by Caine) comes later to regret.
Miss Piggy – Animal love
If there’s one lady who’s shown herself more than Caine’s equal when it comes to breaking hearts, it must surely be Miss Piggy – playing the wife of Scrooge’s employee Bob Cratchit, to Michael Caine’s Scrooge, in the Muppet’s version of A Christmas Carol. The actor once said in an interview that she – Miss Piggy – was his only true love. Sadly, the porcine object of his affections did not return his affections.
