Tracy Bond


 

Tracy Bond is a fictional character in the James Bond film and novel On Her Majesty's Secret Service. To date she is the only cinematic Bond girl to officially marry secret agent Commander James Bond, though Bond would later marry again in John Gardner's Scorpius. In the film version of On Her Majesty's Secret Service, Tracy was played by actress Diana Rigg.

Film mentions

The follow up film, Diamonds Are Forever, shows James Bond tracking down Blofeld in the pre-title credits, but it is only assumed that Bond is doing so out of revenge for Tracy's death. She is never mentioned by name in the film.

Subsequent films also rarely mention Tracy or make reference to the fact that Bond was previously married.

  • In The Spy Who Loved Me, when Bond meets Anya Amasova in the Mujava bar, she recites facts of his life, including that he had been married once and that his wife was killed. Bond quickly changes the subject; Anya recognizes and comments upon Bond's discomfort in talking about his late wife.
  • In For Your Eyes Only, Bond stands at her grave before boarding a helicopter which Blofeld has booby-trapped. It's actually in this sequence where Bond ultimately gets revenge for her murder, by impaling an uncredited Blofeld's wheelchair on one of the helicopter's skids and eventually dropping him (wheelchair and all) down a tall industrial smokestack.
  • In Licence to Kill, after Bond refuses to catch the garter of Felix Leiter's new wife, Della, Leiter makes a short, sad reference to the fact that Bond was married "a long time ago". Nothing else is really said on the matter.
  • In The World Is Not Enough, Elektra King (whose father has been killed in the pre-credit sequence) asks Bond whether he has ever lost anyone 'that he truly loved'. Bond appears uncomfortable and does not answer the question, continuing with a different line of conversation.
