Nancy Spungen was originally born in Philadelphia to a middle class jewish family from the suburbs. She was extremely violent and abrasive throughout her childhood, and it got worse as she grew older (even leading to self-abortions and drug abuse). When she was 17 she moved to New York, becoming a groupie, stripper, and a prostitute. Nancy later moved to London, where she was introduced to Sid Vicious through Johnny Rotten (which Johnny later regretted). They moved in together, and Nancy introduced Sid to heroin, a drug he hadn't tried, and is often blamed for his downfall.
In October 1978, she was found dead with a single knife wound in her body. Sid Vicious was arrested for murder and taken to jail, then released on bail in early 1979. He died of a heroin overdose soon after, which might have been a suicide. He requested that he be buried next to Nancy, but her family would not allow it. Sid's mother secretly scattered his ashes on Nancy's grave soon later.
