Heiress egg-specting
Congratulations are in order for so-called 'chicken heiress' () Tamie Ingham who is expecting her first child with celebrity chef Guillaume Brahimi.
This exciting chapter comes almost three years after the pair's old-money wedding in Paris, where they exchanged vows at the iconic Musée Rodin. Following the ceremony, they hosted a star-studded reception at legendary restaurant Maxim's de Paris in the 8th arrondissement.
A second round of fatherhood certainly marks a new chapter for Guillaume.
His first marriage to Sanchia Brahimi (née Curran) lasted for 16 years before an acrimonious split in early 2016. Together, they share four children - Constance, Honor, Violette and Loïc - who remain a central part of his life.

Sanchia, the daughter of business identities Charles and Eva Curran, has since been linked to long-time friend and solicitor Paul Smith, the widower of Lindt Café siege victim Katrina Dawson.
Tamie, meanwhile, has long been a fixture in social circles not just for her family pedigree, but for her entrepreneurial flair in fashion.
She previously lived in and cultivated a shoe brand, Mara & Mine, alongside , the wife of conservative podcaster Karl.

Stepanyan steppin' out
Long before the alleged kidnap plot that claimed the life of grandfather Chris Baghsarian, Dimitri Stepanyan - the Monaco-based businessman's - was already turning heads on the French Riviera.
Footage is doing the rounds of Stepanyan strutting out of the iconic Richard Mille boutique and then sliding into a canary-yellow Ferrari SF90, offering an extraordinarily rare glimpse of his lavish lifestyle in the sovereign city-state.
Sources say Stepanyan personally requested the clip be removed after it emerged on a social media account dedicated to the lives of Monaco's rich and famous.
But as was the case with I reported on in the past, the internet had other ideas. The post remains online and has become a magnet for attention, with women eagerly clamouring for Stepanyan's Instagram handle.
Form an orderly queue, ladies.
