Edna Morton Deane (née Sewell; 15 October 1905 – 22 November 1995) was an English professional ballroom dancer, author and choreographer who won the British and world ballroom dancing championships. She co-founded the Deane School of Dance and Drama and earned fame for being asked by the future Edward VIII for a dance nine times at a ball in the mid-1920s, which inspired the writing of the popular song "I've danced with a man, who's danced with a girl, who's danced with the Prince of Wales".
