Disgraced British media mogul Robert Maxwell married Frenchwoman Elisabeth "Betty" Meynard in 1945.
The couple had nine children: Michael, Philip, Ann, Christine, Isabel, Karine, Ian, Kevin and Ghislaine.
However, Robert and Betty suffered two tragedies with their children, as Karine died aged three of leukaemia.
Michael was severely injured in a car crash, after his driver fell asleep at the wheel, with the Maxwell child dying seven years later having never regained consciousness.
Who is Kevin Maxwell?
Kevin is the fourth son of Robert and Elisabeth Maxwell.
He spent the majority of his working life before 1991 working for his father.
After his father died, it emerged that there were financial troubles in the Maxwell publishing empire that Kevin was a part of.
In 1992 Kevin filed the largest personal bankrupt declaration in UK history claiming debts of £406.5million.
In 1996 he was tried and was acquitted of fraud charges arising from his role in his father's empire.
He recently set up a think-tank with his brother Ian called Combating Jihadist Terrorism with the aim of better understanding terrorism and its causes.
