Bombastic details, the diary of Hitler's English girlfriend is revealed

After 80 years, details have been revealed from the secret diary of the English girlfriend of Germany's Nazi leader, Adolf Hitler, shedding light on the Fuhrer's private life with Unity Mitford, the aristocratic beauty who scandalized British society.

Secret diaries that were long lost have been discovered by the Mail today and show that Unity Mitford worshipped Hitler despite him being among the most hated in the world.

The young upper-class beauty scandalized British society by lying to Hitler and becoming closer to him than any other Briton.

She confided in her daily diary the secrets of their extraordinary bond over the five years leading up to World War II, when Unity itself betrayed Britain for the sake of Nazi Germany.

In one of the diary pages, it is understood that while plotting global massacre, Hitler behaved like a 17-year-old in love with the blonde beauty. One of the world's leading scholars of Unity, her historian and biographer David Pryce-Jones, said he is confident that her diaries are authentic.

Missing for 80 years, Unity's diaries span the years 1935-1939 and chronicle 139 extraordinary meetings with Hitler, whose monstrous regime killed six million Jews in the Holocaust.

A Nazi devotee, Unity revered the dictator, whom she incessantly referred to as 'Führer' or 'He' and referred to as if he were a god.

So fascinated was Unity by Hitler that she moved to Munich at the age of 20 to obsessively follow the Nazi leader. Her black, leather-bound diary exposes for the first time that Unity was almost certainly sexually active while associating with leading Nazis in Germany.

This raises the tantalizing prospect of her having a sexual relationship with the Führer himself, who was 25 years her senior. Her diaries reveal their growing passion for each other as Unity was embraced in the Nazi inner circle in the crucial months leading up to the war.

As her British colleagues prepared for the ultimate sacrifice, the aristocratic girl – who was born in London but conceived in the Canadian city of Swastika – held a place within the highest ranks of leadership in Germany.

The last entry in her diary is dated September 1, 1939, the day Germany invaded Poland. Two days later, when war was declared, Unity was so distraught at the prospect of her homeland and her beloved Nazi Germany going to war with each other that she shot herself in the head in Munich’s Garden Park.

She failed to kill herself, although she was left with brain damage and the bullet lodged in her skull for the rest of her life. She returned to Britain, where she died in 1948, aged 33. (A2 Televizion)
