Yes they did, it was a long standing affair which commenced after the success of the Falklands war, where Britain defeated Argentina, and reclaimed the said Falklands Islands. It is believed that the Conservative party were holding a celebration, which Heath, and Thatcher both attended, an insider claims "they were dancing enthusiastically with one and other all evening. Which was surprising as the two were said to have a strained relationship, but you know what alcohol does to you!" The events that followed are unclear but Thatcher was said to have led Heath up the stairs to her hotel room, where the pair were not seen again until the following morning. A "do not disturb sign" was even sited on the door of the hotel room. Further evidence includes, child like gazes of lust across the houses of Parliament, and flirtatious comments in private. But to what extent the relationship continued is still open to debate..the plot thickens.

Why is Margaret Thatcher famous?
Margaret Thatcher was a Conservative MP in the United Kingdom between 1959 and 1992. Prime Minister 1979-90. Leader of the opposition 1975-9. Leader of the Conservative party 1975-90. She also served as a minister in Ted Heath's government 1970-4.
Who did Margaret thatcher replace as leader of the conservative party?
Margaret Thatcher was elected leader of the Conservative Party in 1975, following a poll of her fellow Conservative MP's beating former PM Ted Heath. She had never been considered for the leadership before this, and had actually declared that she did not think there would be a woman Prime Minister in her lifetime. It was when Heath refused to step down that the Tories had to organise a 2-stage ballot, where the front-runners were asked to stand aside first time round, so that the anti-Heath votes could be concentrated on one candidate, who was clearly meant to be a stalking-horse. They chose Thatcher for this, as she was the only candidate of Ministerial rank who had no chance of actually getting elected - being a woman. But to everyone's surprise, many backbenchers decided to vote for her in the second ballot, and she became the first-ever woman party leader - to the fury of Labour, who felt that this honour would fall to one of theirs.
