Mrs Banksy • Joy Millward, by jfury on Mar 21, 2011 10:08:28 GMT 1, Quote from the Sun
www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/3480062/Unveiled-First-pic-of-Mrs-Banksy.html
RARE picture of graffiti artist Banksy's parliamentary lobbyist wife emerged yesterday.
Elusive Joy Millward, 31, is so desperate to keep her husband's identity a secret she tells friends he illustrates COOKBOOKS.
Pals say that even some of her own family do not know he is the spray-paint ace whose works fetch up to £100,000 each.
His art has been snapped up by Hollywood star Brad Pitt.
A source said: "The only people who know his real identity are those in the inner circle, who have been vetted."
Joy and Banksy, thought to be 36, are said to have met in London in 2003, when she was working as a researcher for Labour MP Austin Mitchell.
In 2005 she set up her own business called Principle Affairs, a parliamentary lobby group supporting charities.

depends...all over the web and the newspapers so it’s nothing that is necessarily 'secret'. I posted as it’s an article in reference to Banksy that’s in the news plus a discussion point that relates to many things including your comment!

So because its on the web means its ok ? I just think that on a site thats was set up to support Banksy, threads on his wife are not really needed

No doesnt mean it is ok or not ok - personally I view it as a discussion point....as in threads on his wife are they needed?, what is the relvance?, is it 'fair', peoples thoughts both for and against etc etc
Happy for mod to delete the links and just leave as a topic to discuss/debate?
Is it the site set up to support Banksy?....I view it as a site to discuss Banksy (+ other artists) both positive and negative?

Mrs Banksy • Joy Millward, by Daniel Silk on Mar 21, 2011 12:33:27 GMT 1, Ya see this is the time when the whole thing about Banksy being anonymous back fires  I think he should have come out of the shadows years ago, and it would have saved him loads of bother in the long run.
If he keeps using the anonymity card as a sort of PR tool then sadly this sort of thing comes as part of the package If Banksy's identity was known from the start, this would not even be a story.

This is part and parcel of the game he wanted to play, and this is the 'banksy forum' after all, for all things suprise suprise; banksy related! If you don't want to see certain things, perhaps you should leave the forum, and stop being so childish while you're at it!

Else some poor random woman will have alot of hassle today!
Even if this is Mrs Banksy, can you imagine all the questions her family, friends, workies etc are going to bombard her with! Nightmare...

This has to be invasion of privacy.
It's just not in the public interest to print someone's picture and personal details for no reason other than speculation on the identity of Banksy. Out of order.

she is clearly an educated woman, i'm sure she knew what she was getting involved in. If not then there's obviously some communication issues in their relationship! I understand this may start to unravel the mystery as more and more friends start to recognise her and put 2 and 2 together; but it was only a patched up mystery at best, it came unstuck years ago, and was really only being held together by coverups and determination.

Mrs Banksy • Joy Millward, by Goooogle Male on Mar 21, 2011 18:39:50 GMT 1, however unwanted the publication of this info is, the "Banksies" will have know and will have been prepared for this for a very long time. They have world class PR representation and will have fully rehearsed for this day. The papers seem to be rock solid on her identity, so it is likely that this lady's career is going to be difficult to continue unhampered though. She will have accepted that though as part of her decision to marry an 'unknown' (and presumably, millionaire) artist!
Reading between the lines, and the fact that 3 papers ran the story on the same date, it looks like there has been a PR compromise here, most likely to do with not running the story until after the Oscars, or to allow her to alert key work colleagues ahead of them reading about who she's married to over their breakfast!
