Diana Holman-Hunt (October 25, 1913 - August 10, 1993) was an English memoir writer and art critic.

Holman-Hunt was the granddaughter of painter William Holman Hunt, a founder of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood in 1848. Her first marriage was to Villiers A'Court (Bill) Bergne, and her second to David Cuthbert. Her son Paul Bergne was a leading British expert on Central Asia. Her published books were:

  • My Grandmothers and I (1960) - her unusual childhood with two eccentric grandmothers, both highly stationed in British society.
