He's the son of one of cinema's most iconic Bond girls - now at the centre of a multimillion-dollar fraud drama. 

But who is Dimitri Hamlin, the only child of Ursula Andress and Harry Hamlin, whose life has remained largely out of the spotlight?  

attention has turned to her only child.

And while the star has long retreated from the limelight, her family - particularly her son - has quietly remained a source of fascination.

Dimitri, now 45, is the only child of Ursula and American actor , 74, whose whirlwind romance in the 1970s captured headlines at the time.

The pair met on the set of Clash of the Titans and quickly embarked on a whirlwind affair, despite a significant age gap - the Swiss beauty was 44, while Hamlin was just 28 at the time.

Their son was born in 1980, the same year the film was released, cementing their brief but much-talked-about union in Hollywood lore.

The passionate yet brief romance led to a three-year relationship from 1980 until their split in 1983, during which time Harry moved to Rome to be with the actress.

Although the couple never married, they remained on good terms following their split, co-parenting Dimitri largely away from the glare of fame.

Speaking about their relationship back in 2020, Harry's now-wife Lisa Rinna explained: 'Ursula is the movie star that you would imagine. He said she called him and said, "Harry, come to my room."'

'And so he did, at 28 years old, he went in and she got pregnant that night. And that was that, at 44. First time.'

After their split, Ursula told People: 'I want to be with him, but he wants to go out. Love affairs and husbands can end, but a child is forever. Dimitri is my love now.'

Unlike many children of A-list stars, Dimitri has largely shunned the celebrity circuit.

Raised between Europe and the United States, he has kept a notably low profile over the years, rarely appearing in public with his famous parents.

However, he has dabbled in the entertainment industry, working as both an actor and a model, and briefly stepping into the fashion world.

Despite his famous lineage, Dimitri has never courted the same level of fame — opting instead for a quieter, more private existence.

He was born in Los Angeles in 1980 and graduated from Princeton with a degree in Philosophy.

After splitting from Harry, Ursula told People: 'I want to be with him, but he wants to go out. Love affairs and husbands can end, but a child is forever. Dimitri is my love now' (Ursula and Dimitri seen in 1982)

'I didn't grow up with my son, Dimitri. Any son who doesn't grow up with his father has issues. You can't grow up without having a dad and not have that affect your life,' Harry said (seen in 2017)

Dimitri is believed to share a close bond with his mother, who has lived for decades in relative seclusion in Rome (seen together)
