Keeley Hawes (born Clare Julia Hawes; 10 February 1976) is an English actress and former model. She starred in The Last September (1999) and has voiced roles in video games, such as Lara Croft in several of the Tomb Raider games. She is also known for her roles as Zoe Reynolds in Spooks (2002–04), Alex Drake in Ashes to Ashes (2008–10), and Lady Agnes in the 2010–12 remake of Upstairs, Downstairs. She starred in the second series of the BBC Two police drama Line of Duty as Detective Inspector Lindsay Denton.

Hawes was born in Marylebone, London, England. The daughter of a London cab driver, she was trained at the Sylvia Young Theatre School, which included ten years of elocution lessons. Hawes has appeared in several successful adaptations of classic and modern novels, including Tipping the Velvet (BBC Two, 2002), Wives and Daughters (1999), Our Mutual Friend (1998), and Under the Greenwood Tree (2005).

Hawes has also appeared in films such as The Avengers (1998), The Last September, Complicity (2000) and A Cock and Bull Story (2006), and two music videos, for the singles "Saturday Night" by Suede, and "She`s a Star" by James.

Hawes has a son, Myles, with cartoonist Spencer McCallum, whom she married in December 2001 in Westminster when Myles was 20 months old. They separated eight weeks later when Hawes started a relationship with Spooks co-star Matthew Macfadyen. She married Macfadyen on 8 October 2004 in Richmond upon Thames and their first child Maggie was born two months later in December. Their second child, Ralph, was born in September 2006. In 2002, after working on the television version of Tipping the Velvet, Hawes stated in interviews with Diva magazine and The Radio Times that she is bisexual. Later, in a Radio Times magazine article, she commented upon this, saying, "Maybe what I meant is that everyone is a little bit bisexual. I’ve been married twice, both times to men."
