In the UK she was lower middle class.

Did she speak RP tho? Or is this so nuanced in the UK that everyone can tell when you try to speak RP but come from a lower middle class family?

The 'midlantic' accent was created in Hollywood and popularized by actors like Kate Hepburn and Cary Grant.

Thanks for the information.
