Gloria Guinness keeps busy all the time and insists that she is never bored. When she is not giving a dinner party ("always include one person who talks well or laughs") or moving on from yacht to plane to villa to house, she likes to encourage young artists, designs "little diamond things" to be made up for her by Cartier's, helps her husband in the photo darkrooms. Right now, she is writing a play about permissive parents called Why Must Women Have Children? "It will probably be absolutely lousy. The producer I showed my first play to looked at me and advised: 'Burn it.' But I'm enjoying it. I'm having a marvelous time."
