Winston and Clementine Churchill’s marriage wasn’t just a union—it was a foundation that supported one of the most consequential leaders in history. Through the immense pressures of political life, the trials of two world wars, and the spotlight of public scrutiny, their relationship stood the test of time. Clementine was more than Winston’s wife; she was his trusted confidante, sharp advisor, and the steady force behind the scenes who guided him through moments of doubt and challenge. Their letters to each other reveal a deep mutual respect and affection, even in the face of disagreements or distance. Clementine’s wit, intellect, and unwavering support complemented Winston Churchill’s larger-than-life personality, creating a partnership that was as dynamic as it was enduring. This Valentine’s Day, we celebrate their extraordinary bond—a timeless reminder that even amidst history’s most turbulent moments, love and devotion can be the anchor that steadies the storm. #WinstonChurchill #ICS #ThinkChurchill #ActionThisDay #Churchillian #Churchill #ValentinesDay #LoveStory"> </a> </div> </div><div class="sbi_item sbi_type_video sbi_new sbi_transition" id="sbi_17869251297223153" data-date="1739449836"> <div class="sbi_photo_wrap"> <a class="sbi_photo" href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DGA1fIdvScm/" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow" data-full-res="https://scontent-ord5-2.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.29350-15/479458567_4826115384279478_5208641938946665870_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_e35_tt6&_nc_cat=101&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=18de74&_nc_ohc=jhXlG6lvFXQQ7kNvgHD9oZB&_nc_oc=AdiOPh2w_wYmFLZFd5jYG5_Vxh0pwesriY6UH9XsUFCTm7nmhhbz8TphSv7zxf0d200&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent-ord5-2.cdninstagram.com&edm=AM6HXa8EAAAA&_nc_gid=ApuIHvEsknYTmC8dAl0BYrA&oh=00_AYBvU4lv_wA_wcPpiKjhGRbWD5aUmW4be06VVS2YbVX_ZQ&oe=67B94A5D" data-img-src-set="{"d":"https:\/\/scontent-ord5-2.cdninstagram.com\/v\/t51.29350-15\/479458567_4826115384279478_5208641938946665870_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_e35_tt6&_nc_cat=101&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=18de74&_nc_ohc=jhXlG6lvFXQQ7kNvgHD9oZB&_nc_oc=AdiOPh2w_wYmFLZFd5jYG5_Vxh0pwesriY6UH9XsUFCTm7nmhhbz8TphSv7zxf0d200&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent-ord5-2.cdninstagram.com&edm=AM6HXa8EAAAA&_nc_gid=ApuIHvEsknYTmC8dAl0BYrA&oh=00_AYBvU4lv_wA_wcPpiKjhGRbWD5aUmW4be06VVS2YbVX_ZQ&oe=67B94A5D","150":"https:\/\/scontent-ord5-2.cdninstagram.com\/v\/t51.29350-15\/479458567_4826115384279478_5208641938946665870_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_e35_tt6&_nc_cat=101&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=18de74&_nc_ohc=jhXlG6lvFXQQ7kNvgHD9oZB&_nc_oc=AdiOPh2w_wYmFLZFd5jYG5_Vxh0pwesriY6UH9XsUFCTm7nmhhbz8TphSv7zxf0d200&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent-ord5-2.cdninstagram.com&edm=AM6HXa8EAAAA&_nc_gid=ApuIHvEsknYTmC8dAl0BYrA&oh=00_AYBvU4lv_wA_wcPpiKjhGRbWD5aUmW4be06VVS2YbVX_ZQ&oe=67B94A5D","320":"https:\/\/scontent-ord5-2.cdninstagram.com\/v\/t51.29350-15\/479458567_4826115384279478_5208641938946665870_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_e35_tt6&_nc_cat=101&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=18de74&_nc_ohc=jhXlG6lvFXQQ7kNvgHD9oZB&_nc_oc=AdiOPh2w_wYmFLZFd5jYG5_Vxh0pwesriY6UH9XsUFCTm7nmhhbz8TphSv7zxf0d200&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent-ord5-2.cdninstagram.com&edm=AM6HXa8EAAAA&_nc_gid=ApuIHvEsknYTmC8dAl0BYrA&oh=00_AYBvU4lv_wA_wcPpiKjhGRbWD5aUmW4be06VVS2YbVX_ZQ&oe=67B94A5D","640":"https:\/\/scontent-ord5-2.cdninstagram.com\/v\/t51.29350-15\/479458567_4826115384279478_5208641938946665870_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_e35_tt6&_nc_cat=101&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=18de74&_nc_ohc=jhXlG6lvFXQQ7kNvgHD9oZB&_nc_oc=AdiOPh2w_wYmFLZFd5jYG5_Vxh0pwesriY6UH9XsUFCTm7nmhhbz8TphSv7zxf0d200&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent-ord5-2.cdninstagram.com&edm=AM6HXa8EAAAA&_nc_gid=ApuIHvEsknYTmC8dAl0BYrA&oh=00_AYBvU4lv_wA_wcPpiKjhGRbWD5aUmW4be06VVS2YbVX_ZQ&oe=67B94A5D"}"> <span class="sbi-screenreader">Early Bird Tickets for the 42nd International Chur</span> <svg style="color: rgba(255,255,255,1)" class="svg-inline--fa fa-play fa-w-14 sbi_playbtn" aria-label="Play" aria-hidden="true" data-fa-processed="" data-prefix="fa" data-icon="play" role="presentation" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 448 512"><path fill="currentColor" d="M424.4 214.7L72.4 6.6C43.8-10.3 0 6.1 0 47.9V464c0 37.5 40.7 60.1 72.4 41.3l352-208c31.4-18.5 31.5-64.1 0-82.6z"></path></svg> <img src="https://winstonchurchill.org/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png" alt="Early Bird Tickets for the 42nd International Churchill Conference are now available!

Thanks to the efforts of ITN and the International Churchill Society, this rare footage has been rediscovered, digitized, and preserved for future generations. Live television recordings from the 1960s are exceptionally rare, making this a significant piece of broadcast history. The 30-minute special bulletin, aired on ITV at the time, reflects the immense impact of Churchill’s passing on the world. Want to see history come to life? Check out this month’s Churchill Bulletin for more on this remarkable discovery and how you can view the broadcast. See Linktree in Bio for Link to Churchill Bulletin.
