What a woman. Another Bond connection: she was married to TB's Felix Leiter, Rik van Nutter.

Was thinking of her just the other day, with the discussions on SPECTRE not being allowed to film at the Quattre Fontane in Rome. I thought they might do an Anita Ekberg hommage at the Fontana di Trevi instead...

In the novel, it's Marilyn Monroe.  They changed it to Anita Ekberg in a film produced by Broccoli for the film.  Beautiful Hollywood icon.
