Christine Williams (born 7 January 1945 in Basingstoke, England) is an English-American model, actress and artist who was Playboy magazine's Playmate of the Month for its October 1963 issue. Her centerfold was photographed by Mario Casilli.
At 6 feet (1.8 m) tall, Christine is one of the taller Playmates in Playboy history. In her profile, she stated that she was attracted to short men and enjoyed going out in high heels. In fact she was the tallest Playmate in the magazine's history until surpassed by Susan Miller (Miss September 1972) who is 6 feet 1 inch (1.9 m) tall.
Christine's mother was English and her father was in the United States Army stationed in England during the Second World War. The family lived in all parts of the world. When she was nine, they returned to the United States, living first in New Jersey and eventually settling down in Altadena, California.
Like many other playmates, Christine had a brief career in films and television, mostly appearing in small parts, but found herself disliking the work. She also worked as a showgirl in Las Vegas appearing in the Folies Bergere at the Tropicana Hotel and Casino. By 1966, she was working as a bunny at the Playboy Club in Los Angeles.
Christine married jazz musician and producer Tom Scott in 1969. They lived in Laurel Canyon and Tehachapi, California, where Christine started raising horses. They divorced in 1976.
She later married another musician, guitarist Mike Gardner, and moved to North Carolina. They had twin daughters, and divorced in 1984.
Christine now lives in Logandale, Nevada, where she breeds Arabian horses and creates stained-glass artwork. She also make appearances at Playboy events and at autograph conventions.
