Ronnie died in prison in 1995 aged 61 and Reggie died in 2000 aged 66. Charlie was sent down for ten years, for being an accessory to the murder of McVitie. Ronnie had shot a rival gang member called George Cornell in the face when he was drinking in a pub, and Reggie, normally the 'gentle' one, had repeatedly stabbed gang member Jack 'The Hat' McVitie in the face and neck for not following orders.īoth men were given life sentences, with a recommendation that they should serve at least 30 years. In the middle of 1968, the twins’ older brother Charlie was arrested for murder.

It is thought that she committed suicide, although according to one account, Frances was murdered by Ronnie, for reasons that are unclear. Ronnie remained unmarried, and Reggie's marriage to Frances Shea in 1965 only lasted for eight months. Unusually for that time, Ronnie was also publicly bisexual, which Reggie found difficult to accept.ĭespite Reggie also being jailed in 1959, the Krays' 'business' activities went from strength to strength, and by the Sixties they were hobnobbing with stars such as Barbara Windsor, and eminent politicians such as Lord Boothby, with whom Ronnie is likely to have had an affair. While locked up, he was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, which partly explained his violent tendencies. Of the two siblings, Ronnie was considered the more dangerous. In their sharp suits, they did their best to maintain, publicly at least, a veneer of respectability, but they were involved in just about every form of criminality imaginable, from straightforward theft to gang violence and - ultimately - murder.

Their first business venture was a club called the Regal, off the Mile End Road, which looked like a dive from the outside but which the Krays turned into a glamorous, fashionable nightspot. Upon their return to the East End, it was clear they would never settle into regular lives. Matters came to a head when they were arrested for assaulting a policemen, and were imprisoned in Shepton Mallet, Somerset. They spent most of their National Service in the guardroom. When they turned 18 in 1951, they decided that military service was not for them. However, by their late teens, Ronnie and Reggie were also fighting on the streets, and they soon started their own gang. For a while, her three sons stayed out of trouble, and spent much of their spare time in the boxing ring, where the twins would win many a competition. It was up to their mother, Violet, to keep the family together, which was a struggle. At the outbreak of the Second World War he was called up to join the Army, but deserted.įrequently away from home and up to no good, the twins probably saw more of the police, who kept visiting their house at 178 Vallance Road in Bethnal Green, than they did their father. Their father, Charlie senior, was hardly the ideal role model. The Krays were almost born to a life of crime. Ronnie and Reggie Kray controlled London's East End for years in the 1950s and 60s
