That's what the article states, but not why, though I'm sure it would be of interest for many readers. Normally you'd think she'd go by Cherie Blair QC, not "Booth" which is (obviously) her maiden name. Plus, another thing: she was christened Theresa Cara Booth? So why isn't that her birth name as well, then? -andy 77.191.216.249 ( talk) 00:01, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
Further proving her actual birth name is 'Cherie' rather than 'Theresa Cara' is her marriage record of March 1980, which has 'Anthony C L Blair' marrying 'Cherie Booth'. She was 'merely' baptised 'Theresa Cara' in deference to her Catholic grandmother's wishes, and apparently no-one went about making it her legal name- or they DID, and she subsequently changed her legal name to 'Cherie' (reflecting her original birth record). Both my grandfather and an elder brother (Church of England, as it happens) had two middle names at baptism that they weren't given when their births were recorded. They were very glad to never, ever use these middle names, and they didn't appear on one single document relating to either of them over the course of their whole lives. This seems much the same situation! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.109.194.250 ( talk) 20:52, 12 May 2018 (UTC)
It strikes me as incorrect to have the photo including me in this article. A friend of mine really liked it, comparing it to Alfred Hitchcock's famous cameo appearances and suggested there should be more random pictures of me with article subjects. :-) But obviously, that's just silly. Anyway, the photo is illustrating the section on "philanthropy" and although Wikipedia is a charity, there's no real connection to Cherie Blair (she hasn't served on the board or been an advisor or donated money as far as I know). I'd remove it myself but I'm sure someone would come up with some kind of bizarre conflict of interest theory, so I'll just raise the issue here for discussion.---- Jimbo Wales ( talk) 13:06, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
This seems rather odd, maybe someone thought the prime ministers wife was in a line of succession? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Panpaniscus ( talk • contribs) 23:06, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
She was secretly married to Ted Heath

This is a most interesting edit because it is purportedly her ("i am wonrgly manes as Theresa Cara Clair that is not the name on my birth cetrtificate"), hence the question. On another note, in Italian, cara means "dear", "darling" (feminine form), which is to say, exactly the same thing as chérie in French. Are we really sure her birth certificate is lying? -- Edelseider ( talk) 18:34, 2 October 2017 (UTC)

Tony Blair, her husband (as of Jan 2018) is widely rumored to have had numerous extra-marital affairs. For instance, his widely reported affair with the then wife of Rupert Murdoch reportedly led to the two men's estrangement and Rupert's divorce. Just seems to me that this is relevant, but how you would go about verifying/validating the information is beyond my ken. 98.21.64.251 ( talk) 11:34, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
Why is it relevant to put who she is married to in the introductory paragraph? She is not defined by him. she is her own person
88.109.140.227 ( talk) 18:51, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
It is relevant because Lady Blair is known for her marriage to a former Prime Minister. All other Prime Ministers’ spouses, including Denis Thatcher, has their spouse mentioned in their introductory paragraphs. It would be a waste to not mention their connection. Also, please quit with the vandalism. AKTC3 ( talk) 20:24, 19 March 2022 (UTC)
Is it possible to have 2A00:23EE:1300:FD4F:ADB9:BEC9:FF88:955D blocked? They have been relentlessly vandalizing and edit-warring this article. AKTC3 ( talk) 05:02, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
