Susan Renouf, Lady Renouf is an Australian socialite.

Born Susan Rossiter in 1940 (daughter of Sir John Frederick Rossiter[1] and Joan Stewart), she was married three times:

In 1968, she was the focus of a minor political scandal in Australia when she appeared in a TV advertising campaign for bed sheets while her (then) husband, Andrew Peacock, was a Minister in the Australian Federal Government.

She played a tennis match at Kooyong on 4 January 1975 against Bobby Riggs in “a fun spectacular for charity” where the match finished at 3 all. Susan was an A grade competition player who had been runner-up in the Franklin Cup social competition at Portsea.

In 1988, her third husband, Sir Frank Renouf, outlaid what was at the time the highest-ever price for a Sydney home, when he bought the mansion "Paradis sur Mer" in Wolseley Crescent at Point Piper, where the vendor was her second husband, Robert Sangster. The house was eventually razed.
