John Profumo, som var försvarsminister i Harold Macmillans konservativa regering, hade en kärleksaffär med en ung toplessdansös, Christine Keeler. Keeler hade samtidigt ett intimt förhållande med Sovjetunionens marinattaché, Eugene Ivanov. Profumo ljög inför det brittiska underhuset den 22 mars 1963, då han förnekade att det skulle ha förekommit något oanständigt mellan honom och Christine Keeler. Den 5 juni 1963 tvingades Profumo avgå som försvarsminister, sedan han erkänt inför underhuset att han ljugit.
