Timeline

1974

Marina Hyde (born Marina Elizabeth Catherine Dudley-Williams; 13 May 1974) is an English journalist.

2000

She joined The Guardian newspaper in 2000 and, as one of the newspaper's columnists, writes three articles each week on current affairs, celebrity, and sport.

Hyde is the daughter of Sir Alastair Edgcumbe James Dudley-Williams, 2nd Baronet, and his wife, the former Diana Elizabeth Jane Duncan.

Through her father, she is the granddaughter of aviation pioneer and Conservative politician Sir Rolf Dudley-Williams, 1st Baronet.

She attended Downe House School, near Newbury in Berkshire, and read English at Christ Church, Oxford.

Hyde began her career in journalism as a temporary secretary on the Showbiz desk at The Sun newspaper.

In an otherwise unrelated article in The Guardian, she wrote: "I am only called Marina Hyde because my real name was too long to fit across a single column in The Sun, where I started out".

She was later sacked by Sun editor David Yelland after it emerged she had been exchanging e-mails with Piers Morgan, editor of rival newspaper the Daily Mirror.

Since 2000, Hyde has worked for The Guardian, at first writing the newspaper's Diary column.

She contributes three columns a week: one on sport, one on celebrity, and one which is typically about politics.

Her sport column appears on Thursday; her celebrity column is entitled Lost in Showbiz and appears in the G2 supplement each Friday.

She has a regular serious column in the main section of The Guardian on Saturday, as well as a column in the "Weekend" supplement, in which she parodies a celebrity diary entry.

This is entitled A Peek at the Diary of..., which ends in the sign-off, "As seen by Marina Hyde".

2008

Elton John unsuccessfully sued The Guardian for libel in relation to Hyde's spoof diary column "A peek at the diary of... 'Sir Elton John'", published in July 2008.

Mr Justice Tugendhat ruled that the "irony" and "teasing" did not amount to defamation.

2009

Hyde published a follow-up diary of Elton John in 2009.

Hyde's book about celebrity, Celebrity: How Entertainers Took Over the World and Why We Need an Exit Strategy, was published in 2009.

2010

Hyde was nominated as Columnist of the Year in the 2010 British Press Awards.

2011

In November 2011, The Guardian apologised to The Sun newspaper for an article in which Hyde had falsely alleged the newspaper had visited the home of a member of the legal team of the Leveson Inquiry.

In the front-page story Hyde had accused The Sun of "blowing a giant raspberry at Lord Justice Leveson’s inquiry".

The Sun's then managing editor Richard Caseby sent a toilet roll accompanied by "a squalid note" to then - Guardian editor Alan Rusbridger after Hyde's false story.

A few months later, Caseby once again objected to an article by Hyde in which, according to Roy Greenslade, she was "employing irony", in a reference to Page 3 models following a comment on Twitter by Rupert Murdoch and the use by The Sun of a photograph of model Reeva Steenkamp in a bikini, on the day after her murder.

Caseby objected to the article, and complained to The Guardian's readers' editor, but his complaint was the only one received.

2016

What Just Happened?!, a collection of her Guardian columns written between 2016 and 2022, was published in 2022.

She helped prepare and proof read Piers Morgan's The Insider: The Private Diaries of a Scandalous Decade, in the acknowledgments of which she is described as Morgan's "best friend".

She appeared occasionally on the BBC's Newsnight Review.

In 2022, Hyde was hired as a writing executive producer on an HBO pilot originating from director Sam Mendes about the process of superhero filmmaking in Hollywood.

The tv series is entitled The Franchise.

2017

2019
