(Picture: Handout)John Rendall, the socialite dubbed the Lion Man of Chelsea after buying a pet lion from Harrods and walking him around London, has died aged 76.
The Australian-born socialite shot to fame after he and his friend Anthony “Ace” Bourke bought the cub called Christian in the 1960s from the upmarket department store which sold exotic pets at the time for 290 guineas.
