Three years after she married Nicolas Sarkozy following a whirlwind romance, Carla Bruni is pregnant with their first child together, it was claimed yesterday.
The 43-year-old wife of the French president is said to be in the early weeks of pregnancy, meaning the child would be born before the election next spring when Mr Sarkozy is hoping to win a second term.
Neither the Elysee Palace nor senior ministers have denied the claims, explaining that they could not say anything because the matter was to do with the couple’s private life.
