Would Ms Fritton approve?


To the girls of St Trinian’s who they were all dating was rather irrelevant to getting that famous Vermeer painting off the wall of the National Gallery. However, this is probably different for the actresses who played the beloved characters, known for raising hell at their all-girls boarding school. After growing into independent, strong young women under the watchful eye of Ms Fritton, we wanna know, who are the real-life girls of St Trinian’s dating all these years after the 2007 British teen classic.
