Freddie Foreman, the English publican and gangster who was an associate of the Kray twins, died October 10, 2026, aged 94.
Born Frederick Gerald Foreman at 22 Sheepcote Lane in Battersea, London, on March 5, 1932, he was the son of Herbert Edward Foreman. Foreman became a prominent figure in London gangland from the 1950s through the 1980s and was also a convicted criminal.
His criminal activity is recorded as spanning 1950 to 1990, placing his underworld career across several decades and extending beyond the period in which he was described as a prominent gangland figure. The biographical account also records television work from 2000 to 2020, years after the criminal activity timeline. These dates mark distinct phases in the record of his life: a publican associated with London gangland in the latter half of the 20th century, followed by television work in the 21st. His association with the Kray twins remains a defining part of the biographical account of his place in the capital’s criminal history.
