===Relationship with [[Ronnie Kray]]=== {{main|The Boothby Affair}} Smith was in a relationship with Ronnie during the 1960s but it is not known for how long. He and Ronnie fought quite frequently, verbally, never physically and their rows never lasted long. Ronnie was very fond of Teddy and vice-versa. According to Pearson, he was ‘one of the few people Ronnie trusted who was also capable of handling him’. [[File:Ron teddy.jpg|left|thumb|220x220px|Teddy Smith (furthest right) next to Ronnie Kray. Winifred Atwell can be seen in the centre.]] He also had a relationship with [[Tom Driberg]], a Labour MP, who provided him with the addresses of rich friends to burgle in exchange for sexual favours from Smith. Smith and the Kray were arrested by Nipper Read's police squad on protection racket charges after Smith had smashed up a West End club the twins were trying to muscle in on. Lord Boothby campaigned for his friends in the House of Lords, demanding to know how long they would be detained before the trial. His fellow peers were appalled at Boothby's intervention, as were the police. [[File:Teddy smith.jpg|thumb|142x142px|An alleged passport photo of Smith once he had emigrated to Sydney, Australia.]] The twins and Smith were later acquitted, seen in the photo above leaving the Old Bailey. As they walked free from the court, Boothby had penned a letter of congratulations to Ronnie and Teddy Smith.
