Mei Cartwright Helms is the fourth wife of Andrew Helms, some twenty-odd years his junior at the age of 26.  Her father is a British business man and minor lord (a Baronet), her mother a Malaysian woman of Chinese descent from a well to do family in Singapore. Known popularly in British, Malaysian and now American high society circles for her quick wit, exotic looks and devastating fashion sense.

Andrew Helms has never been able to hold a marriage together for long; and if the gossip publications are correct, this one is already on the rocks.
