[3], Lewis's work so impressed the writer Mary Berry that she left her papers to Lewis (via Sir Thomas Frankland Lewis) so that Lewis could in 1865 publish Extracts of the Journals and Correspondence of Miss Berry from the year 1783 to 1852.[4]. [1], Among her siblings were George Villiers, 4th Earl of Clarendon, Thomas Hyde Villiers, Hon. [27], She has spoken out publicly in support of Iranian resistance to the Iranian regime at an event in Paris in 2017, organised by the National Council of Resistance of Iran. [8] Upon her election to the House of Commons, she resigned from her seat in the European Parliament; it went to Syed Kamall, the next candidate on the Conservatives' regional list for London. In May 2017, Villiers announced that she fundamentally supports the ban on hunting of wild animals with dogs but suggested that there remains scope for reform of the Hunting Act 2004. [32], Villiers married fellow barrister Sean Wilken QC in 1997,[citation needed] and the following year they co-wrote a book on matters of contract and quasi-contract law, which was published by a major publishing house. Lady Lewis also edited a novel by the Hon. Villiers gained a Bachelor of Laws (LLB) degree with first-class honours in 1990 from the University of Bristol, and a year later the postgraduate degree of Bachelor of Civil Law (BCL) from Jesus College, Oxford. She also served as a member of the governing board of the Conservative Party during this period. [7], Lewis died in Brasenose College in Oxford in 1865 from cancer. [2][3][4], Villiers was born in Hunstanton in 1968, the third child of George Edward Villiers by his marriage to Anne Virginia Threlfall; she has two elder brothers, Edward and Henry. Lewis's career was promoted by his wife in London society and by her family. 1 She is the daughter of George Edward Villiers and Anne Virginia Threlfall. (Maria) Theresa Lewis (born Villiers, later Lister; 8 March 1803 – 9 November 1865) was a British writer and biographer. [12] She made a speech in February 2016 defending the Royal Ulster Constabulary and the British Army, which had been accused of colluding with loyalist murderers in the Loughinisland massacre. She was born as a third child to father Major George Edward Villiers and mother Anne Virginia Threlfall. They are now divorced. Villiers supported the temporary suspension of Ken Livingstone, then-Mayor of London, by the Adjudication Panel for England, which examined the case after a complaint from the Board of Deputies of British Jews to the Standards Board for England. She was married to barrister Sean Wilken with whom she co-wrote a book on matters of contract and quasi-contract law, which got famous. [citation needed], Villiers was sworn of the Privy Council on 9 June 2010. Theresa Villiers is a member of, and since 2017 Vice-Chair, of Conservative Friends of Israel.

On 6 November 1830, Lister married the novelist Thomas Henry Lister, a son of Thomas Lister of Armitage Park, and his first wife Harriet Anne Seale. Although Chapman's majority at the 2001 general election had only been 2,701 votes, the party viewed Chipping Barnet to be quite a "safe" Conservative seat, and Villiers held it at the 2005 general election with an increased majority of 5,960 votes, which she increased again to 11,927 in 2010. [22], She also has a house in Arkley in her North London constituency of Chipping Barnet. [5][6] On her father's side, she is a descendant of Edward Ernest Villiers (1806–1843), brother of George Villiers, 4th Earl of Clarendon, Thomas Hyde Villiers, Charles Pelham Villiers, and Henry Montagu Villiers and a direct descendant of Edward II. She stood down after the 2005 general election when she was elected as the Member of Parliament (United Kingdom) (MP) for Chipping Barnet. Henry Montagu Villiers (Bishop of Durham), and Lt. Hon. That role went instead to Philip Hammond, who had shadowed the post of Chief Secretary to the Treasury.
