Britt Ekland (born 6 October 1942 in Stockholm, Sweden) is a Swedish actress long resident in the United Kingdom. Best known for her role as a Bond girl in The Man with the Golden Gun, her marriage to actor Peter Sellers, and her high-profile social life.

Ekland's father was a successful retailer in Stockholm, Sweden. She has three younger brothers. Her mother died after a long battle with Alzheimers.

Ekland was the leading Bond girl in the 1974 James Bond movie The Man with the Golden Gun. Other notable film appearances include The Night They Raided Minsky's, Baxter, The Double Man, Get Carter (in the 1999 BBC television series I Love the '70s she hosted the 1971 episode in homage to her role as "Anna" in the film), and the 1973 cult film The Wicker Man (for which her voice was dubbed to disguise her Swedish-accented English).
