Jacqueline "Jacky" Thomas Smith (born 22 June 1983) is an English-American broadcaster, journalist, and a member of the British royal family. The youngest illegitimate child of King Thomas of the United Kingdom and of the Netherlands, and the American actress, Jaclyn Smith, Jacqueline initially spent much of her early years in the United States under her mother's care, before later moving abroad to the United Kingdom in the early 2000s. In 2004, she graduated with a bachelor's degree in journalism from Oxford University, followed by a master's degree from that same university in 2007.
From the mid-2000s, Smith began her career as a journalist, first by covering the controversial Iraq War as a BBC correspondent in the Middle East, a work that soon brought her international fame and recognition. This was followed by her coverage of the First Libyan Civil War and a number of other armed conflicts around the world, during which she gained much acclaim for her "pointed" style in covering said conflicts. Eventually, in 2015, Smith announced her retirement from the BBC, citing her desire to "move forward and beyond in life".
Since 2016, Smith has been both the sole producer and host of Jacqueline Smith: From Coast to Coast, a modestly-acclaimed documentary series in which she tours both well-known and less-known coastal cities located in each of the world's five continents.
In 2015, Smith married fellow BBC journalist, Mylo Russell, with whom she has two children, Thomas and Kelly.
