At his age, he likely could care less about his money, but he's happy leaving a legacy of a different sort.
Bernie's 44-year-old wife, Fabiana Flosi (is that Italian for floozy?), is heavy with child, the racing tycoon confirmed to a Swiss media outlet.
"Yes, it is due in the summer," Ecclestone told Blick ... "Hopefully he'll learn to play backgammon soon!"
Guess that means he's having a boy?!
By the way, the baby is reportedly due just before Bernie turns 90 in October.
Ecclestone already has 3 children -- 65-year-old Deborah, 35-year-old Tamara and 31-year-old Petra.
Bernie met his wife Fabiana in 2009. They married in 2012.
For some perspective, Bernie was born before chocolate chip cookies were invented.
Meanwhile, another randy daddy, Boris DePfeffel Johnson, PM of the UK, has a load of kids, but no one is really sure how many. Boris won't say.
Not his kids.... as far as we know.
Officially, Johnson has four children with his ex-wife Marina Wheeler. Their names are Lara Lettice Johnson, Cassia Peaches Johnson, Theodore Apollo Johnson, and Milo Arthur Johnson. They are aged 20 to 26.
That's Milo in the background, trying to keep up with Dad.
It is also a matter of public record that he fathered a fifth child, a daughter named Stephanie, in 2009 during an affair with Helen Macintyre, an art adviser.
And, as The Independent put it today, "he is also believed to have fathered another child outside of his marriage."
Boris sued to keep this kid out of the papers, but lost, which is how we know.
That would make six children, of which only four have been officially acknowledged by Johnson. But possibly only five in total, if the rumours are false.
And now... Ta da!... he's got another one on the way!
Mr Johnson, 55, and his 31-year-old partner Carrie Symonds, announced that the couple are expecting their first baby together.
Historical factoid: On one side of his family, Boris descends from the illegitimate daughter of Prince Paul of Württemberg, and is thus a descendant of King George II of Great Britain. His behavior therefore fits the family pattern.
The baby Carrie Symonds announced tonight she is 'hatching' with Boris will be her first child... that we know of.
Well, she claims it's Bernie's.
ReplyDeleteYeah. Absent legally enforceable sexual exclusivity, men have little reason to believe that we're the fathers of any given sprog.
DeleteAlso, am I the only person who loathes the word "partner" for girlfriend/boyfriend/husband/wife? Makes it sound either like a business arrangement or a homosexual lover.
Please don't become the tabloid in the checkout line at Wally world...
ReplyDeleteBoris gets around.
