Lucy Karima Gutteridge (born 28 November 1956)[1] is an English actress.

Gutteridge was born in London, the eldest daughter of Bernard Hugh Gutteridge by his marriage to Nabila Farah Karima Halim, the daughter of Prince Muhammad Said Bey Halim of Egypt and his British second wife, Nabila Malika (née Morwena Bird). Gutteridge is a great-great-great-granddaughter of Muhammad Ali of Egypt, a Muslim subject of the Ottoman Empire (likely of Albanian ethnicity) who became the father of modern Egypt. As such, she is a distant cousin of Egypt's last king, Farouk.

Gutteridge was nominated for a Golden Globe in the "Actress In A Leading Role - Mini-Series Or Television Movie" for the 1982 television miniseries, Little Gloria... Happy at Last. In the series, she portrayed Gloria Morgan Vanderbilt, the mother of the artist and writer Gloria Vanderbilt. She also has appeared in such films as Top Secret! and Judith Krantz's Till We Meet Again.

Now retired, Gutteridge is divorced from the actor Andrew Hawkins and lives in Westbourne. She has one child, Alice Isabella Valentine Hawkins, born in 1979.
